2 FREE AudiosSales Resolutions For The New Year

Resolutions For Your Business
When we make New Year’s resolutions we often do not think realistically. Why would we be able to change something just because it is a new year when to date it has been impossible to motivate ourselves to do so. As we all know most New Year resolutions are forgotten before the end of January.
Make A Big Impact On Your Business
Rather than making a resolution that is impossible to keep, why not make one small change in your life that will make a big impact on your business.
- I call this a big impact habit.
A big impact habit is something that is easy to do. So easy to do, in fact that we are able to do it every day for the rest of our lives and it makes a huge impact.
 |
An example may be flossing your teeth. A small habit that makes a big impact habit would be to floss your teeth every day. Now this is pretty simple to do once or even twice. As a matter of fact it is pretty simple to do for 50 days. It takes 50 days to make a habit, so floss your teeth for 50 days and you will be doing it for the rest of your life. |
This small habit will make a big impact on your health. (It is proven that flossing your teeth reduces your chance of many diseases in addition to preventing tooth decay and gingivitis.)
Improve Sales With New Year’s Resolution
| One way to improve your sales business is to make a big impact habit for your New Year’s resolution. Instead of being over zealous and making a resolution that you can not keep, make one that will be so small that you can do it forever and then will result in a huge impact to your business. |  |
An example may be “3 contacts per day no matter what”. Three new contacts per day is simple, easy and do-able. Now a much loftier goal may be 100 calls per month, but will you maintain it all year?!
Make your big impact habit something simple that you can keep doing on a long term basis. Do it for 50 days and you will have a habit that will make a huge impact on your business!!

I agree with you, Deb. I don’t really believe in making NY resolutions. Too often they get broken before the month is up. Rather it is better to make small changes in lifestyle. Look at what you like and what you don’t like about your life right now. Then decide what you want to change. Make small changes and make it a HABIT. Positive attitudes are a big factor. Thanks for the blog.
Goal setting is a big part of my life in several areas. This session inspired me to review, reset and reaffirm my future. Thank you.
Great Carol. Goals with actions for business make a business plan and keep us on a positive focus both in personal and work.
This makes sense. I am trying to lead my team by example and 3 contacts a day is achievable for everyone so I’ll give it a go
