People are funny, all of us are at different times and in our own unique ways. It pays not to take yourself too seriously! Let's take a look at a behavior that – if we took too seriously – might cause us to laugh our hearts out, because it is just too funny for words (so long as we don't take ourselves too seriously!). And that is the mistaken notion that for most things, 'once can be enough.' Really?
Now, there are some things that are indeed 'one time' events. We are born, once. Billions of people have married only once. So just as many rules have there exception, so does this rule. But remember, the exception proves the rule, but the exception isn't the rule!
To prove the rule, we eat daily, drink daily, bathe or shower routinely, brush our teeth, go to the rest room and do a host of activities on a daily or routine basis. Once is not enough. That is the rule.
Now, this is a marketing and sales focused blog. Let's apply that rule of 'once is not enough' to marketing and sales.
Do you run an ad one time, and then never advertise again?
Do you build a website once time, and then never updated it again?
Do you say something to someone one time, and expect never to have to say that teaching or example again?
Since the time we were kids, we had to learn things the 'hard way,' one step at a time, one example at a time, and then we practiced, practiced and practiced some more until we engrained i! People 'practice' law, they practice medicine. Professional athletes – even high school or college athletes – practice, practice, practice.
Once is not enough!
Does the coach give only one pep talk? Never to be repeated ever again?
Does the cheer leading squad give only one cheer, and then never do it again?
Does the religious leader preach only once?
Please repeat after me. “Once is not enough!”
If the poster doesn't have you rolling on the floor yet, please check your pulse or get a cup of coffee, tea, energy drink or whatever wake up beverage you prefer. 😉
Once is not enough.
Manufactured and modular housing is a wonderful product, and we showcase that amazement through numerous – and growing numbers! – of examples located at this link here. Once is not enough, we keep adding to it. Have you visited? Have you shared it with others? Did you do it…more than once?
Once is not enough!
We do websites, marketing and training. We practice what we preach, because it works! When you need the services (and believe me, with all due respect, most of you do need web, marketing and sales development services), do you pick up the phone or email to ask us for our take and fees on what you need? Do you make your marketing and sales training pay?
Because when these things are done well, it is an investment, not a cost! It pays far more dividends than any stock you can name!
But once is not enough!
You don't get motivated once, you don't train just once, you don't learn once, watch TV, listen to radio, shop or go out to dinner just once. You do these things and more, over and over.
That's a huge hint!
Profitable professionalism requires repetition, as does most things in life.
