The Golden Rule for Sales and for Life - 11/29/10 12:47 PM
The Golden Rule for Sales and for Life!  It seems to be an appropriate time of the year for a bit of reflection.  I have heard various forms of "The Golden Rule" from "Them that has the Gold, makes the Rules" to the one I have been taught "Do unto Others as You would have Them do unto You".
Most of us are familiar if not quite accomplished with the above Golden Rule.  How many of us have even heard of The Platinum Rule ?  I have heard sales trainers mention it, and I have even heard a pastor include it … (4 comments)

A Milestone for me...in the Rain! - 11/22/10 01:08 PM
A Milestone for me...in the Rain!  Will be reached when I hit send.  When I first started looking at AR, I was not so sure of the whole blogging thing.  "What the heck" I thought.  I could possibly have something to add...and for sure, I will learn a thing or two.
I have certainly learned more than a thing or two.  The adding part I will leave up to you fine folks.  It is flattering to read some of the feedback.  It is also great to know that I am not alone in dealing with issues that arise in the Real … (7 comments)

Recognizing a "Nice" act. - 11/08/10 04:25 PM
Recognizing a "Nice" act.  Can be very simple and require nothing more than a Thank You or it can be very elaborate.  I wrote a blog last week about a "Nice" act that a past client of mine had done.  The Clayton's own Nature's Way Health Food Store on the square in Mountain Home, Arkansas. 
The piece I wrote focused on the fact that they are involved here in their adopted community and wanted to help!  They are not newcomers to the Mountain Home area, I sold them the store and a home years ago.  
I got a call today … (6 comments)
