Do you have overdue bills?

by Sue Bruce
14 replies
You may not realize it but you have been selling your whole life. You convinced your mother to give you a cookie an hour before mealtime.

You convinced your classmate to be your friend.

You convinced a boy(girl) to become your boyfriend (girlfriend).

You convinced an employer to hire you.

If you think about your life there are probably hundreds of times you have developed and used sales skills without knowing it.

There is an idea on this forum that you have read that will make you money tomorrow. Are you shrugging off ideas, one after another? Why?
What are you saying to yourself when you read the fast money making opportunities that you received free from the goodness of a warriors heart? What is the excuse that you usually come up with?

If your respnse is "I cant sell, I cant call businesses on the phone,I don't want to meet business owners in person, there is probably a job waiting for you.

If you need to pay bills this week, realize that you have been a salesperson your whole life. All you need is to make the decision to use those skills to own your own business.

If you do not have an idea how to do this, start by going to the second red bar at the top of the warrior forum page. Under "search", key in "telemarketing". you can wake up tomorrow morning, get on the phone, if you don't have a car or gas to put in it and make money TOMORROW and begin paying the overdue bills.

    Man this is an AWESOME post! I also sometimes think of how hard we tried to walk or climb onto a chair or mouth our first words... man if we only applied that effort to everything else...I think the deal is that we "wanted" to walk really bad...but we dont want to make sales calls that badly. lol

    I love your post. Thank you.

    As far as bills....stuff dont take care of itself...You have to take care of it if its going to be taken care of. No time for magical thinking that a fairy is going to come. YOU have to bust the moves in your life and so do I in mine.

    Telemarketing is a dependable, tried and true way to make something happen.

      Thank you so much for this very simple, but powerful message.


      Between this, "The Great Telemarketing Report" I found earlier (Thanks John Durham) and tons and tons of really great and useful posts on WF, I will be picking up the phone tomorrow.


      I've said it before, but this is the last day I'll be saying it without really meaning it.


      I DO have bills due THIS WEEK.

      I HAVE learned a LOT of ways to make my own way in the world.

      I WILL NOT work for some jerk for $10/hr just because it's "safe" or whatever.


      The time to get off my ass is NOW.


      Thanks for this!

    Today is monday Wally, two 3 hour days of cold calling can book you up with 5 appointments between now and the end of the week...you may even accidentally make a phone close in the process... thats no guarantee but it is ALMOST one, I havent seen many people apply themselves to a couple of "TRUE" appointment setting sessions and not come out with results.

    I dont think you can really try the report and fail to be honest. Its tried and true, especially with YOUR enthusiasm.

    This is doable bro!

      Yo john, how do you make sure that the apps are solid? I have a whole bunch of them that just didn't show up, and one even went on vacation...

      (Haven't read your report, I DID listen to offline on crack though)

        John said in another thread that he'd be back tomorrow working on his programs.

      This is great advice for those who are starting out. Just do it.
      Stop thinking about 'What if', just do it.

      On the other hand. My bills aren't overdue, but my girlfriend is.

      Should I tell my wife?

    Yes, this is!! What is needed is just belief that I can and effort that will make the belief a reality. Now resources are not limited. You will find a lot of resources if you want to get and have interest to give the give the effort. And, in the sense you told, yes we are doing marketing all over our life!

      Thanks for the support guys.

      Im bumping this because newbies are dropping like flies. A few newbies may see this and say "Hey, I can do that tomorrow and pay a bill by the end of the week, just call a few people"

      What if you don't have a system, plan, the newest WSO? Can you get up the nerve to call businesses, ask for a decision maker and find out how their business is doing?

      Has business increased or decreased for them? Do they do advertising? What type? Do they get traffic from their web site? (by now you could have googled it and found out). Chat and find out what they believe could increase their bottom line. Oh, more traffic from their web site, a coupon campaign?

      Well you have the best internet marketers and advertising people in the world at your disposal, from here on WF!

      Get busy and pay some bills!

      Sue

    It's coincidental that I stumbled upon this thread today -- I was just thinking about this concept myself last night. How we all partake in "selling" whether our conscious mind is aware of it or not. Great share.

      socialbacklink,

      That's exactly what we're trying to get them to do. Take action.

      BTW, love New Smyrna and Daytona. Lived on the Gulf Coast when I was in Middle School. You live in paradise.
