Will You Add? - Losing the Big-One: Salvaging Lost Accounts
Ty Harmon is a local radio show celebrity. I admit, calling Ty a celebrity is giving liberal use to imagination, but here in southeastern Colorado, everyone knows him. His lanky southern cowboy voice sooths away the sleepers every morning, as you wake up to his quips and quotes about living the ‘country life’.Everyone knows Ty isn’t a city boy. It’s obvious. He shares his fear of crazy city drivers from the one memory of being to Denver seven years ago, he drove to the Stock Show and drove home, a whole thirty blocks into the city on Highway 70. If that doesn’t capture your attention, the fact that he’s essentially computer illiterate, given that he is bothered by blo

They say that a dog is man's best friend. Why? Because dogs have this uncanny ability to love and support their masters at all times, even under the worst of circumstances. It doesn't really matter if it's a good day or a bad day...dogs will still be there. Dogs will bond with their owners and stand by them through thick and thin.And why do we love dogs? Well, we love dogs because unlike many of our human friends and contacts, dogs are absolutely positively 100% loyal.There are some important lessons here from our canine friends as you build and grow your mortgage business. The lesson...never, ever underestimate the value of loyalty. It's also important to reme
Hard words to hear. That big deal, the account you’ve been courting for months, has fallen to someone else.
“We appreciate all the time and effort you put into your bid. It was quite professional.”
Yeah sure, they really appreciate your months of grueling work, but not enough to actually write you a check. You feel like you’ve just been elected the mayor of Loser-ville.
So what do you do now? At this crucial point, many salespeople make one of two mistakes: they either forget about this big potential customer (and the time invested) forever or they make some desperate move that further cements their fate as the Company That Couldn’t. “Hey wait-a-second Mr. Prospect, are you really mentally prepared to give me a final no? Hello?…. Hello?” (Never comment on a prospect's mental health).

Competency based interview questions are used in an effort to make the interview process as standard and as fair as possible. It is a technique which is being used increasingly in large organizations where many managers may be interviewing for the same type of position such as in Call Centres or Banking back offices. This method of interviewing is also called Structured Interviewing and uses Behavioural Interview techniques to assess how a candidates past performance in work related situations can be used as a predictor of future performance. Studies have shown this technique to be about 5 times more accurate than traditional interview questions.The word competency is

Many banks and financial institutions offer need base solutions, exclusively for businesses and corporates. Businesses can also apply for loans and avail of other services through their business banking accounts. Small businesses apply for a loan, while growing or expanding. Therefore, they prefer to be in contact with an institution that can offer specific solutions to their needs.Many types of businesses, both large and small, have set-up their business as a limited liability company or LLC. The reason for this is the flexibility available with an LLC. Additionally, setting up a limited liability company in the state of Nevada offers protection to the personal asset

Over the past 19 years, I have worked with thousands of business owners in Africa, Canada and the United States. I foresee serious financial adversity looming for many entrepreneurs in the coming years, and perhaps a lot sooner than we may think.

The “world’s reserve currency” is in trouble. America slips further into debt. Since the end of the gold standard in 1971, this has escalated.

One thing that separates a good salesperson from a great salesperson is the ability to become a backup vendor. In essence, positioning yourself as the secondary supplier for the account sets you up to continue to build a relationship with the client, to someday win that business. Most companies want to have depth in their supply chain. Everybody likes to have options. Few clients will deny your last request.
