The e-Minute Tips on Motivation, Leadership and Sales

What are your Behaviours?

Behavior is the manner in which you conduct yourself. It is the way you behave, the way you act, function or react. The 1, 2, 3’s are the goals and behaviors from a personal, organizational, and market targeting level. Without goals there is no reason to act, no motivation to take daily actions or go the extra mile.

Appropriate behavior drives opportunities as you will learn to target your sales efforts. Opportunities come from setting goals, written S.M.A.R.T. Goals. What do you want out of life or out of your business? Who could determine this for you and who can make it happen? What are the daily behaviors that you must apply to live the life of your dreams?

It is those daily behaviors, and when you implement them, that will make a big difference in your level of sales success. For example, as salespeople we need to constantly networking, calling on prospects, qualifying them, presenting, helping them buy and following up with them. When is the best time to be conducting these behaviors? Once you identify these behaviors and times and stick to them, watch your time management skills and results improve dramatically.
Behaviour, like attitude, starts with you. What you do for a living is a choice you made. But there is a reason you made that choice and that choice goes beyond making money. Sure money has something to do with it, but it is not the money that gets you out of bed in the morning – it is what you want to do with the money that keeps you motivated. It is the realization of your dreams, and dreams can be realized when you take the time to organize, plan and put your plan into action.

In professions such as ours (sales), considerable time is spent questioning, listening, discovering and understanding the needs of clients in order to provide a recommended solution or action plan.
In contrast, how much time and energy do you expend discovering your own needs and desires, and then consciously setting objectives, developing action plans with measurable performance standards, and finally reviewing your own performance? By engaging in such an exercise, you will be doing something about your life. You will be going to work on yourself, for yourself. This is where the real behavior has to start.
