What You Can Learn From My Weekend Face Plant! It was a lovely holiday week-end in Canada. I live out in the country on an acreage, so I was busy planting my garden, hanging out at the greenhouse and feeling very Martha Stewart-ey. As I was sweeping the sidewalk I noticed my little black dog preparing to chase someone/something on the road. Her fur was all up and she was doing her I'm a big dog and I am going to eat you routine. (Note: She's not a big dog and she practically needs a cane) I gasped and had visions of her getting run over - so I dashed forward to stop her - she looked at me, saw me running - which in dog language must mean ... CHASE THAT INTRUDER! and she took off. As she was sprinting at old lady speed- she cut across my legs, I tripped on my stupid broom and did a total FACE PLANT in the driveway! I hit my eyebrow, took a bunch of skin off my foot, and my entire left side - OUCH!! I've got bruises that look like Italy, France and Minnesota on my leg and ribs. As I was lying there in the dirt, my little black dog ran across the road and attempted to catch the DEER she had viewed at a distance. And then she came panting back - feeling all happy with herself. I, on the other hand, was bleeding, picking stones from my face and I confess - my FIRST THOUGHT was... Oh S%$T! Did anyone see me do THAT?? Just the deer. And then I started laughing as I couldn't believe what I had just DONE TO MYSELF. Plus - I can't imagine what I looked like when I wiped out -I'm talking full ass over tea kettle image here! And my favorite mode of transportation (my broom) went flying too! And so yes - your bruised and scraped up Sales Diva has some advice for you. What You Can Learn From My Week-end Face Plant: Have you had a face plant in your business recently? Let me give you some examples to prod your memory: You didn't get the deal you thought you were going to get You tried something new and it bombed so bad you're still feeling shell-shocked Your cash flow has become a trickle That expensive website? Yeah - it's not working. You've had a customer criticize you and or your product/service You goofed BIG TIME and you don't how to dig yourself out of Embarrassment Alley And Fill-In-Blank ______________. My spectacular trip-over-your-own-broom-and-skin-your body- act could have been AVOIDED: Why did I chase the dog? I gave her the wrong signal! I rushed without thinking I stretched waaaaaay out and put myself off balance I didn't drop my stupid broom Cutting a dog off at the pass - oh boy - brilliance at its finest! Listen - I know wipe-outs hurt. And whether it has happened to you (if not - just wait - as it will) - wipe-outs and face plants happen when you're STRETCHING IN YOUR BUSINESS. You certainly don't get FACE PLANTS FROM STANDING STILL! So take a deep breath and GET UP. Someday soon you'll laugh about this but in the meantime, DO NOT LET IT DE-RAIL YOU. Being in business can rough you up sometimes - you can handle it. Now get back out there! Love from your Scratched Up, Bruised and Lucky To Have Her Teeth Sales Diva, P.S.

Traditionally we assume that women are less competitive than men, and lack the killer instinct that will enable them to win at all costs. However, the latest research shows that women can and do compete, they just experience the stress of competing differently to men. Anne Day, founder of Company of Women, has the 4 things you need to know to cultivating a winning instinct: Insiders Club Members Log-In Here: http://salesdivas.com/insiders-club-log-in I sure hope you're not missing out on our exclusive Insiders Club.

Check it out here (it's super easy to try out for only $1.00 for 14 days!) http://salesdivas.com/insiders-club The Secret of Making GREAT Dough... OK - I have a confession to make. I love traveling to conferences all over the world (headed to the UK next year!), love meeting and helping people - I'm one lucky girl. But when I kick those stilettos off at home, I turn into Domesticated Diva! (I know, I know, I can already see you laughing!) I love to cook, decorate, make pickles - you name it. One of my recent adventures was learning how to bake bread from my father-in-law. Bob is 78 years old, a former Canadian navy man, machinist and he makes a killer martini. He's also the creator of Bob's Bread. Honestly he could sell the stuff it is so incredible. During a recent lesson, he showed me all the steps ( he uses a bread machine just to do the messy mixing part) and I thought it was a cinch. A week or so later - I thought.. I'm going to make Bob's Bread. Everything went well until the bread dough rising part. Didn't look like Bob's bread to me. And even after I put it into the oven, my gut was saying... Something is WRONG So I called Bob and said... OK - do you have some secret ingredient you FORGOT to tell me? I just made bread that is as solid as a rock! We went through all the ingredients and then........big pause.....Bob says... I bet something is wrong with the yeast. Take a look at the EXPIRY DATE. I dashed to the cupboard and let out a scream... Well this yeast flat-lined in 2010 Bob - no wonder the bread is a BRICK! He laughed - I threw the bread to the crows and went to the store to get FRESH YEAST. And started over. So What Does My Bread Making Story Have To Do With YOU Making Better Dough? Well - I bet you're doing loads of things right but you still feel like you're struggling. And as your bossy Sales Diva - you need to take a closer look at what is NO LONGER FRESH in your business. Because you've PASSED THE EXPIRY DATE. Sometimes, what at first glance looks really SMALL - is in fact, one of the reasons you're not RISING TO THE LEVELS OF SUCCESS you should be. Which, by the way, means you're losing sales and don't even know it. Examples : Has your Website seen any new content/refresh lately? How is the SEO/traffic for your website doing? Do you even know? When was the last time you created new marketing materials? Is your picture updated? Do you send out a newsletter each month? Is your sales process the same as it was 5 years ago? If you answered YES to any of the above - LADY - you're not making the DOUGH YOU DESERVE! I kid you not, cinnamon bun. Love from Your Bossy Sales Diva, P.S.

I'm a city girl who also happens to love living in the country. One of the major benefits for a nature loving, tree-hugger-wearing-stilettos kind of chick like me is that I get to witness the thousands of birds arriving in the spring. One of my favorites is the robin. A few weeks ago as I was writing an article for a national magazine, I happened to look out my front office window. A flutter of activity caught my eye. One of our vehicles was parked in the front of the house and a robin had landed on the passenger mirror. Now here is where the fun begins! The robin would sit on top of the mirror...peek over the side, puff up its feathers, hop in front of the mirror and do a little love dance and then pop back on top of the mirror. And it did it over, and over again. Yes - Rocket Robin was making out with himself. He thought he'd found the love of his life. And he did this for 3 days in a row. To hear the rest of the story and to see what happened to our fine-feathered friend - you'll have to keep reading! Are You Making Out With Your Sales Mirror? I may not be a scientist however I can guarantee one thing. Rocket Robin wasn't going to woo the love of his life, build a nest for 2, have a couple of kids and head south for the winter by making out with a truck mirror. He kept doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Where Is That Showing Up For You? Spring is a wonderful time for a REFRESH. And I would bet you have a few little habits that are driving you nuts except you can't seem to stop yourself from doing them. Examples? Ohhhhhh ... checking your email 10,000 x a day vs selling and marketing doing one annual tradeshow that you never follow-up on the leads hanging out at the same, no-name networking functions using your boring sales and marketing materials from 5 years ago and so on, so on, so on, so on, so on, so on, so on...... Remember - if you want DIFFERENT RESULTS then you're going to have to break free from your sales mirror and stir things up! Otherwise, you'll be just like my little Rocket Robin friend...the one who adored looking at his own reflection but who wasn't getting any action. Does that sound like you? So what DID happen to my mirror-humping buddy? After 3 days of watching in disbelief I couldn't stand it any longer. We actually had to put the vehicles in the garage each morning to stop the crazy little bugger. He hasn't been around lately...although I did see a robin flirting with one of the garden balls....some birds never learn. Make sure you're not one of them. So there.

Wed, 02 May 2012 13:08:04 -0400http://archive.aweber.com/sd-pearlswisdom/Jpsz./h/Last_Chance_To_Register_.htm Would you like people to buy from you ALMOST INSTANTLY? And they aren't concerned about your price or competition? Do you wish you could wave your magic wand over a potential customer's head and they would LEAP at the chance to buy from YOU? I have the wand, lady! In the world of selling, REFERRALS are the magic wand you're looking for. When someone else says how wonderful you are...you gain INSTANT CREDIBILITY.
