This weeks focus: BE Knowledgeable – What Do You Need to Know?
For sales professionals everywhere.

The most successful salespeople aren’t the ones who know everything about their products—they’re the ones who know the right things about their customers.

Sure, product knowledge is important. But understanding your customer? That’s where real sales success lives. Floyd Wickman said it best: “What’s in the mind of yo…

As part of the BEyond Sales series, this month we’re focusing on BEing Inquisitive – How Interested Are You in Truly Understanding Your Customer?
For sales professionals everywhere.

It starts with you.

The most powerful sales conversations aren’t the ones where you do all the talking—they’re the ones where you ask the right questions and truly listen to the answers.

But here’s the thing: great questions will fall flat if they’re not sincerely asked.
Your curiosity, your genuine desire to unders…

Being scheduled takes organization and structure to the next level. It’s about more than just having a to-do list—it’s about placing actions in time where they need to happen for both you and your clients.

When you schedule appointments, you create commitment, clarity, and momentum. You take control of the process instead of leaving follow-ups and next steps to chance. Appointments are an agreement between you and your client—a commitment to progress.

Why Sc…

Last month, we explored BEing Intentional — the mindset and clarity that guide our choices in the sales process.
This month, we take the next natural step: BEing Prepared.

Tony Robbins once said,

“We don’t rise to our goals. We fall to our structures.”

Preparation isn’t simply about readiness. It’s about the systems, habits, and structures that support consistent execution. When those structures are weak, our results wobble. When those structures are strong, our results stabilize — and gro…

Being structured is about setting up systems that support action—so that what needs to happen actually happens. Structure isn’t limiting; it’s a foundation for success.

Think of a bridge—it provides support, stability, and a clear path forward. A calendar does the same for your time. A checklist keeps you on track. Without structure, even the best intentions can fall apart.

Why Structure is Essential

Some people resist structure because they associate it wi…

Being organized isn’t about perfection—it’s about efficiency. Christina Scalize said it best: "Organizing isn’t about perfection; it’s about efficiency, reducing stress and clutter, saving time and money, and improving your overall quality of life."

At its core, being organized is a mindset. It’s about sorting data, actions, and tasks into meaningful categories, allowing you to work smarter, not harder. And the best part? There’s no single "right" way to do i…

This month, the blog and webinar series are about Being Prepared—with BEING as the operative word.

Being prepared carries a state of mind of thoughtfulness and thinking ahead. It means considering current conditions in business and in your life that will impact the actions you take and the results you produce.

Being prepared coincides with being proactive, as they have a similar relationship to taking initiative. Last month, we talked about Being Intentional…

All of this talk about intentionality can seem daunting at first. The idea of consistently focusing your energy and attention might appear exhausting. And maybe, at the very beginning, it is.

But consider this: intentionality is a practice, not perfection. It’s about bringing yourself fully into the present moment and becoming aware of what’s happening around you—the environment, the people, and the conditions—that might impact your actions and intentions.

The more you practice being present a…

Have you ever noticed how elite athletes or performers prepare just before they take action? Whether it’s stepping onto the track or walking on stage, they all take a moment to breathe. They center themselves. They focus on what’s next, slowing everything down to concentrate fully on the intention of their next action.

In sales, this same intentionality can be a game-changer. It’s about slowing down and aligning every action with a purpose—whether it’s picking up the phone, greeting a new oppor…

Being Intentional with Your Schedule: Create a Rhythm for Sales Success

Consistent actions lead to consistent results. But how do you ensure that your actions are, well, consistent? By being intentional with your schedule.

When you’re intentional about how you plan your time, you gain a broader view of the opportunities available to you. This approach allows you to create a rhythm of activity—a natural flow of actions that builds momentum and drives results. Doesn’t that sound divine?

Why Int…
