Quote of the Week

"A man wrapped up in himself makes a very small bundle." -- Benjamin Franklin

It's easy to feel isolated when you're in sales - after all, you are the person who's solely responsible for the money you make. That's why it's so easy to forget that if we open ourselves up to others, things can be better - and easier! For example, try helping a colleague break into a new account, and they'll likely do the same for you. Ask friends and family for possible leads, or for help with creative ideas on contacting those leads. Getting more people involved in your business, and helping people with theirs, will only broaden your network and bring more business your way.

Let us know - how do you work with others to expand your business?
