There is a popular saying that goes something like this: "Been there ... done that." This implies that once is enough. But sometimes more than once satisfies the urge. In today's epiosode, Mike reminds us that do-overs, do-agains, "Play it again Same," just might be what the doctor ordered. Take a listen as Mike becomes fixated on his ninth European River Cruise. As he was heard saying recently, "Been there. Going again."

There are four primary myths that are responsible for thwarting a travel professional's progress. Today, I am going to address ther first one: Sales Is a Numbers Game. The truth of the matter is that sales more closely resembles a game of darts.

Aim. Toss your effort toward a definite trategt. Maske the appropriate adjustments, before tossing again. Repeat until you hit the bulls eye.

Myth 1- Sales Is a Numbers Game

Years ago sales professionals were taught that if they made enough calls the sales would follow. In other words, if you threw enough mud against the wall, some of it is bound to stick. Although that philosophy might work now and then, (even a blind squirrel finds a nut now and then,) it is not the most prudent use of one's time.

My suggestion: Pick a target and go get yourself known. If they appreciate honesty, knowledge, service and value, you soon will be adding to your client list.

Target Marketing

This week's "reminder" stems from a recent post from a disgruntled travel professional. I use the word "professional" loosely since I am suspect of his/her true colors.

The bottom line to today's message is simple: "When the student is ready, the teacher appears."  Here is an aside to ask yourself. "If I feel my clients are wasting my time, am I charging enough for my time?"
