Add You - Where are You Coming From? - A Question to Assess Your Dominant Intention
Networking opportunities are everywhere. Don't let them pass you by. 1. Recognize that there is more to networking than greeting people. Develop a step-by-step plan for how you'll build relationships and how you can effectively tell your story. Don't forget your 30 second commercial to tell your story. 2. Zero in on specific groups of people. Who are the ideal prospects for your business? Do they live nearby? What activities do they participate in? Try networking groups meetings. For those of us in lease purchasing we network with real estate agents, accountants, financial planners, and a multitude of others. 3. Determine where you'll be most likely to find your ideal prospects. Do they belong to specific organizations or associations? Do they frequent particular events, performances or recreational facilities? Again, for those of us in lease purchasing, investors, buyers and sellers are just the beginning. 4. Identify organizations, events, professional groups and social clubs whose members meet your profile character
This is an extremely powerful point to keep in mind. This is why it is extremely important to assess your dominant intentions. A dominant intention that has only getting as its main premise, will only foster people within the company who want to get. It is not a culture that is conducive to loyalty, but only to what they are going to get. Human relationships are discarded, empathy is discarded, a
Dating back thousands of years, bartending began as a trade by those that produced liquor and in turn sold it to the public. This was not only a profitable venture for these early bartenders, but provided a product in huge demand by the public. Historically humans have always had a fondness for spirits which is an enormous benefit to those pursuing a bartending career. Prohibition makes a very clear case that people want their drinks and demand is not quashed by the absence of product.Very few careers can offer you virtually guaranteed placement in literally any place you wish to live and work in the world. Most bartenders, in fact, earn more than entry level college graduates, with some eventually earning 6 figure incomes.Becoming a successful bartender takes more than just learning to spin drink recipes. The professional bartender is well versed on the legal and business ramifications of alcohol management and service. Today's bartenders are a breed apart, savvy and knowledgeable performers in a fast paced exciting environment. Simply
The question may initially seem confusing, but what it is actually asking is “What is your purpose for creating or carrying out this business? What is your intention?”
What you should realize is that every answer will provide a lens or a view-point of how you are working. If your answer is “I created this business to make a lot of money.” Then that is the lens with which you are conducting your business. That is where you are coming from. That being the case, all of the actions that you take will be coming from that intention. That intention runs supreme and is the engine behind your entire operations. There is nothing wrong with that. But what we can truly see about this intention, if we look at it carefully, is that it is a very ME-oriented intention. It is an “out to get” mentality. It is a mentality of looking for completion or looking for wholeness. It is an intention of looking for a way to fill a gap that we believe currently exists within ourselves.
Once again I would like to repeat that there is nothing wrong with that. However, what we will see from people with this kind of intention is that the entire vibration around the company seems to be one of taking. When a company has only the intention to make money as its sole intention, that sends off a signal to everyone else that this company or organization is only looking to take something away from you rather than to give you anything extra. If that is the feeling that is sent off then it becomes very clear that the only people who will do business with you are the people who currently have no other choice. However, when that option opens up, they will be moving away from you and fast! If this is the dominant intention of your company, it will be a vibration that is also pervading all areas of your company. It will be the way your employees also act because the dominant intention is what gets absorbed as a way of being in the corporate culture. What this means for you is that your employees will also only be working to get. Realize that if your company has a dominant intention, it can only attract people who have that as their dominant intention as well. If it attracts someone of an opposite quality, you will either lose that person, or that person will change and begin to display traits that are in alignment with the dominant intention of the company itself. Sometimes it is necessary for a person to change because if they don’t, then they won’t be able to survive in that environment.

Once you’ve been selected for a Secret Shopping assignment, you will be judged according to your performance, professionalism and initiatives. Future employment will also depend on how impressed past employers had been with the work you’ve done for them. So, on the whole, good performance is the key to a successful Secret Shopping job.Punctuality is an important factor if you want to continue working for any kinds of employers, including Secret Shopping Companies. Schedulers can be very strict if you do not follow their timetables, which might even cost you your job. So, always show up for work in time and submit your report within the specified time. Be straightforward if you happen to be late for work instead of making up ridiculous excuses.Follow instructions and directions exactly the way they are written. Do not take any initiatives by yourself if the hiring company does not specifically ask you to. This can result in unwanted outcomes. An effective secret shopper should take initiatives - that’s true - but according to the employe

Over 70 years ago, Napoleon Hill realized that success for businesses comes from the people within those organizations. However, many organizations still fail to grasp this realization because soft or people skills still are viewed as secondary to job specific skills.One of the executive coaching activities that I employ when working organizations through a change management process is to ask these three questions and listen to the responses: When a person is promoted here at XYZ Company, it is usually because of her or his job specific skills or people skills? Usually 99% will agree that promotions are because of the job specific mastery.As a person is promoted up the management ladder, what skills will that individual need? Job specific ones from the initial promotion or interpersonal (people) ones? Again, 99% will agree that interpersonal skills are primary to the success of that individual while job specific skills are secondary.Within your organization as you promote your people, wher

An efficient customer support system plays backbone to the successful functioning of any business. This goes for the small-scale unit as well as the large multinational bank, insurance company, or mail order firm with a large customer base numbering in the thousands or millions. Customer support means that your enquiries are attended to immediately no matter from which time zone you dial your enquiry.Call centers are equipped with automatic answering machines, which are already fed with the expected data relevant to your enquiries. The machines act as virtual assistants or receptionists that answer preliminary enquiries. If your enquiry requires a more detailed or specific answer, the machines take your messages and store them for answers by the office representatives.For example, if you need to know your account balance, you just submit your identification information and the answering machine instantly calls out your balance and thanks you for making the enquiry. If you want a detailed answer, these machines are aided by operators to

If you are in the mobile auto detailing business you know that customer service is one of your top priorities and you also know that you expect to get referrals and continued word-of-mouth advertising that it is crucial. Often people consider mobile auto detailers and even mobile car washers as second rate to a carwash facilities or an actual detail shop.It is interesting that people consider this in that carwashes generally do not give very good service and lack quality and auto-detailing shops do not go to the customer and can never make up for that level of service no matter how hard they try. Nevertheless the customer perception is the way that it is and to overcome this you must blow the customer away in customer service and exceed their expectations.Customer service in a mobile auto detailing business is paramount. There are many things you can do to show your customers that you care about customer service and that they are happy with your work. I recommend putting a small card thanking the customer on the console with a mint one,
This is an extremely powerful point to keep in mind. This is why it is extremely important to assess your dominant intentions. A dominant intention that has only getting as its main premise, will only foster people within the company who want to get. It is not a culture that is conducive to loyalty, but only to what they are going to get. Human relationships are discarded, empathy is discarded, and the sole objective is simply to get.
In order to avoid this, or to shift this approach, you should begin to look at what your current intentions are. Realize that intentions are not just words. It is not just a mission statement to hang up and enforce to others. What gets reflected in the company is not what is written on the mission statement. What gets reflected in the company is the way people act. You can have the nicest and most wonderful qualities written on the mission statement, however, it is the way that you are acting, the dominant intention of the company, that will be absorbed within the entire company and that is what will be reflected to the world.
So you can begin with realizing and then re-organizing, re-directing, or re-creating your dominant intention. This is where the golden rule comes into play. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. If you want to receive, then give. Most entrepreneurs who became entrepreneurs in the first place definitely came in to make money, but the truth is that the work that they are doing is what they are truly passionate about. Their passion comes from sharing their experiences and their products with others. It comes from a place of giving and of wanting to give. It comes from a place of wanting to offer value.
If we forget that, then we are constantly going to be focused on the wrong thing. We are going to be looking for the results – the amount of money coming in- without focusing on the main cause of those results – our passion and our efforts that go into the company.
An entrepreneur is someone who is always doing their thing. They just love to do their thing. If someone loves to create paintings, that is what they are constantly doing. If someone loves to write, that is what they are constantly doing. There is no stop to it. They are constantly doing it. If they love to share with others, that is what they are constantly doing. Remember and realize that entrepreneurs are entrepreneurs because they love to do what they do. A lot of what they do also has to do with sharing what they do with others. Most entrepreneurs when they are starting up, realize that they are starting up because they want to do something that they love all day. However, when they are in it for a while, they begin to forget that and begin to focus on the results instead of on the action that will bring the results. This normally happens with the very first paycheck that th
