When it all comes together

I don’t know about you, but sometimes I have already decided I want to work with someone—or buy something, or visit somewhere—and so I’m already sold. But then I get sold to even more, even when I’m already ‘in’. And sometimes it puts me off and I don’t buy.

If you want to take this quote in a literal sense—to me, it says that you’ll get paid if you ask for the sale.

And here you were thinking it was about riding into battle on your trusty steed :)

It’s an important point though. You need to sell your Thing. And that can mean being bold or brave.

Knowing who your ideal client is makes a HUGE difference to everything you do in your business.

Just assume that EVERYTHING in your business works better (for that read – more easily) when you know your ideal client well. Really well.

No, I don’t have a magic wand that I am going to wave all Fairy Godmother like in your direction and shower you with sparkly dust to make wonderful things happen. Because I don’t need to.

There is a big difference, however, between knowing what your Thing is, doing it, and BELIEVE-ing in it.

Yes, this is a slightly ‘woo woo’ post as it’s all about ‘flow’. And if you don’t do ‘woo woo’, let’s call it ‘getting in the zone’ :)

But you know what I’m talking about right? When it’s all working, it’s just going the way you want it to… there are no bumps in the road, there are no objections, no ‘problems’—in fact, you’re on a roll. Yeah, we love that. And it makes our business flow better too.

Get ready for an overload of metaphors. This whole blog is a giant metaphor for business as far as I see it, with lots of lessons and smaller metaphors along the way. Hold on tight (I was)!

So I need to clarify what I am going to write about… it’s about my circus skills (or lack thereof). It’s about me ‘learning’ the Trapeze.
