Quote of the Week

"No one can cheat you out of ultimate success but yourself." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

When you're having a tough time selling, it's easy to blame the economy, your manager, your company, your product line, your dog - in short, anything and anyone but yourself. Yet, ultimately you are the only person who can be held accountable for your results.

If your company isn't providing the training you need, instead of complaining, purchase some training books or invest in a seminar to hone your skills.

If the economy is affecting your company's revenues, do some research on new companies to prospect, new ways to market yourself and new ways to position your products.

You may not be able to change the situation, but you can change how you respond to it.
