What’s your vision for your life? - By Jerry Bellune

I’ve previously talked about making and keeping commitments.
Today we’ll talk about creating a vision for your life.
A vision is more than a list of goals. But goals are where you start.
National championship coach Lou Holtz is a good example.
Early in his career, Lou made a list of more than 100 life goals.
At last count, Lou was closing in on the last dozen.
These include rafting the Snake River through Hell’s Canyon.
Jumping out of an airplane — with a parachute, of course.
Appearing on national TV. Winning a national championship.
Mine include reading the Great Books of the Western World.
Circling the globe. Speaking fluent Italian and Spanish.
Resuming our study of the organ. Writing two dozen more books.
Collecting local recipes we love from exotic places we visit.
Selling 20 million books. Raising $200 million for literacy.
Here’s my challenge to you: Start your list. Make it a long one.
Make it so long you cannot afford to die before at least age 150.
Tomorrow we’ll talk about how those goals lead to your vision.
Special note: Ruth King will interview me Friday at 10 a.m.

We’ll talk about my new "Terminate Your Profit Killers" book.

Triple your Sales Closing Rate – With Jeff Burrows

My guest this evening, Jeff Burrows, will be amazing. How do I know this? I just sat, glued to my chair, scrambling to take notes, through a breakfast presentation that Jeff delivered. Not only did Jeff give me food for thought, he gave practical ideas and concepts that I can implement today.

Tonight at 7 PM you have the opportunity to learn from Jeff’s 20+ years of experience working with thousands of small business owners and managers like you. He’ll show you how you can triple your closing rate (no kidding – he’s done it and helped others do it too).

Increase Productivity by Helping Your Employees “Make” Time by Karla Brandau

Do your people frequently have three people waiting to see the, ten telephone messages, fifty e-mails, and twenty IM’s waiting for them in any given hour? Add the need for critical decisions on top priority projects and you get the recipe for a frazzled work day and the need to help your employees “make” time.

Time For Results is a revolutionary new product that helps employees make time. It infuses time management principles into the technology tool of Microsoft Outlook, bringing increased productivity which means more dollars at your discretion for organizational needs.

In a recent Time For Results program, an engineer was ecstatic that the techniques taught would save him at least 4 hours a week. Another attendee, a president of a large contracting firm and an avid Blackberry and Outlook user, stated that the Time For Results program would save him 3-5 hours a week as well. He wanted everyone in his company to have the training.
With the Time For Results program, everyone can find more time.

Compute the benefits: A person who is paid $55,000.00 a year plus benefits, makes about $37.00 an hour. If that person gains just 4 hours a week, as people who have gone through the program testify, that person has given the company a gift of $148.00 worth of more productivity per week. That is a gift of $592.00 per month and $7,104 per year.

By training just 12 people from your organization in the Time For Results program, you have a potential productivity gain of $85,248.00. Would your bottom line like that kind of productivity gain from just 12 people? If so, check out our product at www.TimeForResults.com. The streaming video is hosted right here at The Profitability Channel.
