Another week ahead. I’m thinking of my game plan and how I will manage my time. I plan to work on my Time Management Skills this week to get more soliciting calls out in an effort to close on new business….or at least stir up some interest for future bookings.
First I will contact the accounting department to find out if there are any SMERFE Clients that have direct billing established. They will be my first phone calls out in the morning to qualify them. Second I will focus on the “2008 Book of Business” (supplied by the Business Journal) to locate associations and non-profit organizations. I will solicit all of them via phone and email…..I must get my internet problem fixed! That should keep me busy.
Next week we are being trained on our new Opera Sales System. I must accomplish two weeks of soliciting in this upcoming week so I don’t fall behind. We are told to keep the whole week of the 25th free. I know it will make our department run better and provide more client history etc. But I am not looking forward to it at all.
I’m a smoker. Yes, we do waste time. This is another area that I am going to work on this week. I’m bringing less cigarettes with me tomorrow so I won’t go with the “gang” as much. We all smoke in the Sales Office here. I’m even thinking about quiting.
The Military Convention starts on Wednesday. I will be working late Wednesday at their Meet & Greet to welcome everyone. They are having their banquet program on Saturday and I plan to stop in around 7pm to check up on them. Remember, I can’t let them down so I will have to sacrifice just a bit of my time. I’m excited.
My last prayer tonight will be that I achieve my personal sales goals this week. It’s all up to me.
Good night.
Pure Energy
