Full Day's Work Is Part of Work/Life Balance
So what should you do? Consider having your calls automatically forwarded to your cell phone when you are not in. Or, consider having the person who answers your phone dig a little to discover how the caller can be helped in your absence.
And while we’re on the subject, I’m just going to say it...If you are not CRUSHING your sales goal, you should be working until AT LEAST 5:00 each day. It is cool to head out early once in a while to get nine in before dark or stop off to buy your wife some flowers on the way home, but really folks, hard work results in higher sales. Cutting out early should only be for those of you who are beating goal by 120%.
I don’t expect this to be my most popular post by a long shot, but I am very curious to hear what you all have to say about this. Come on...Let me have it!
