Are You A Time Waster?

📅  5th March 2018 | Selling

Are you pleased with your performance as you approach the end of a quarter?

Have you put in place the quarterly business plan and have you surpassed the revenue target you set?

If you haven’t you may be guilty on spending too much time on “time-wasters”….here’s just a few of them

Unplanned meetings

Office politics

Procrastination

Checking e-mails

“Fire-fighting”

Having one too many coffee breaks

Interruptions

Making personal calls

Over researching a prospects business

Scouring social media for sales tips

Doing other peoples jobs……

I could go on.

You really need to change your behaviours if you find yourself doing some of the above.

Ages ago, I realised that I could not possibly do my job as a freelance businessman and presenter without outsourcing or delegating some tasks. As a result, I try to focus on what I’m good at doing, selling, speaking, running sales training workshops. Admin and other mundane items I pass on to others to handle.

Delegation can multiply results. If I try to do everything myself, I can only get so much done in the available hours. If you get others to help you, one can achieve a great deal more.
