Well school is out here and summer is just right around the
corner!
Some people consider summer a time of slow down in our
industry. Here's the truth which will set you FREE!
I never slow down in planting seeds and speaking with
possibility seekers during the summer!
Remember the Ant & the Grasshopper story? The Grasshopper
took the summer off to play and fool around didn't he? He
didn't have much to show for it when Fall rolled around either.
Well, I've always been the Ant, continuing to plant seeds all
summer long even though some call it a slower season with
people busy with summer activities, etc.
Yes we do have fun during the summer going on vacation,
going to the lake, the beach, etc. but my job is so enjoyable
that I just keep plugging away all summer even though people
may not be getting right back, I still keep my business and
products in front of them!
I've been through many a summer season over the last ten
years and have never slowed down and the benefits are
really reaped during the FALL because of the summer
activity! <smile>
What happens is come Fall people who have been plugged
in are ready for the season and trust me volume really picks
up in the fall! Especially when you've been planting seeds
ALL summer long, watering and cultivating your garden,
you're gonna have quite a bountiful harvest!
Try not to become discouraged during this time because it
will slow you down and hamper your Fall harvest! Instead of
thinking of the outcome focus on the ACTION you are taking
every single day to make connections with people!
You DO want a big fall harvest don't you? Of course you do!
So keep calling your possibility seekers, sending out your
website, packets of information, following up, speaking
with people when you are out and about with your kids
and on vacation, etc, planting seeds every single day and...
Come fall you'll have a bountiful harvest of product users and
new business partners that will pay you residuals over and
over for a lifetime of summers!
Make sure you have plently of possibility seekers to call! Are
you buying leads? If you cannot afford to buy leads make
sure you're making connections with people locally and with
people you know every day! So they know that you have
products and/or an opportunity for them when they are ready to
buy and/or start their business from home!
Never give up because your harvest is just around the corner!

I couldn't agree more! Instead of looking at the summer months as "slow" months..... look at them as a time to plant and cultivate! Those seedlings will come up you know!! You never know which one is going to give you the biggest flower bloom! http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley2.gif
Thanks for sharing Charlie!!
