RE: Are you good at what you do?

in The LIFESTYLE LOUNGE5 years ago

not because I am talented, but because I take what I do seriously enough that I will learn what I need to do, when I need to, including the skill of "winging it"

Persistence and perseverance will outshine talent pretty much every single time!

a core part of service as a professional supplier is being able to identify and acknowledge customer needs and then suggest and influence outcomes to get the best results for that customer.

That is the key to success in ANY service orientated business or venture and is also applicable in what you mentioned after...

it is far more "lucrative" to build an account into something that is able to attract steady support, rather than the lottery wins.

I actually had this VERY conversation with someone this morning when they essentially DM'd me on discord to ask how they can "make more money" on Hive. There is never a short answer to that kind of question because it is comprised of many facets... the first being that it shouldn't be the money that drives you in the first place.

I found that to be true in my business too. I always looked at what we did like this: "I was not offering the customer a product or service... I was offering them an EXPERIENCE. When you look at it like that and you offer them just that... it builds those long term clients that will not only support you forever - but are also the ones that afford you the one of the most difficult forms of positive advertising... that being "word of mouth".

Great post - Now bugger off and go enjoy some time off haha!

Yeah, there is no set formula, but I think that if one was to combine and overlay the process of the successful accounts and look for similarities, there would be a pretty clear path.

Precisely. It becomes a personal relationship and the commendation is from friend to friend, about a friend. Perhaps part of the problem for many is that we don't really do personal anymore, we have everything suggested to us by algorithms - "people like you have liked..."

I enjoy this too. This is my time off :)

🤣🤣🤣

That is a VERY valid point - not to mention the fact also, that so much of what we do is electronic (especially of late).

I enjoy this too. This is my time off :)

hahaha ok ok! I share the same sentiment actually :)

Well enjoy either way :)
