Sales Question: Are you raining? (Is it gentle?)

The role of rain on a farm is to keep plants growing, just fast enough to allow the growers to harvest, in just the right spots so that haymakers and other harvest activities are not impeded.

And oh, by the way, if the soil is not able to absorb much rain, the role of the rain is to not dump too much moisture so as to cause a flood.

It reminds me of a brilliant opening to a speech I heard about the neighbours on Saturday morning. Apparently, they all started their mowers at the same time, around 10 am.

But then it was revealed that this was only a wish from the author of the speech. The reality was different.

As business owners stare down the future of 2023 we need to realise that the headlines in the newspapers or news sites don’t have to dictate our 2023 reality.

Here is an interesting article by Rachael Kelly. It is about the sudden drop off in rain in Southland. It features a LinkedIn connection of mine, Donald Martin, an agronomist, and owner of GrassCo.

My role at #Pinnacle&Co is to connect people and ideas together. When business decision-makers discover what we can do, they can see a future they have influence over.

How To Get Support For Faster Sales (Load Faster)

About gaining faster sales.

See this luge on a concrete structure, in 2015? It looks great.

But I wonder if those participants could “load faster” these days, in 2021 and beyond. Let’s look at how that idea applies to filling our sales quota to support our bank accounts.

How many business managers and business owners want to load sales faster? Speed up sales? But they are supporting sales with a 5+-year-old website?

Those who don’t luge may think this image looks pretty swish, but someone who does may say to themselves, “those suits look so 2015!”

Business owners in the South Island. I’m talking to you, as a business owner, as a marketing professional. Your website may not be your priority right now.

But could you please pass this article on to someone who is looking to fill their sales quota faster?

Here is a word to website managers and owners. Does your website built in 2010-2017 look tired on the outside? Perhaps you are not sure. Perhaps you think it looks great. What I know from personal experience is that without consistent effort, it will out of date on the backend, for sure.

An updated website can load fast, so can your sales quota fill up fast, with up to date website programming. Contact me today.

I own my business and managing my own blocks of clients with customer relationship management software, and an online shop. In addition to this, for the sheer joy of it all, I am in contact with business owners in the South Island, every week, to help them fill their sales and build relationships with their database.
