If you’re doing the work and your bank account isn’t moving, STOP. Because at some point, continuing to do more of what isn’t producing a result isn’t “doing the work.” It’s efforting. Thursday, I taught The Daly Plan from a much deeper level of awareness. The business is won in the setup. We talked about being intentional about WHO you want to serve. You get to choose your ideal client. Being intentional about your average ticket. You get to choose the type of business you want to attract. Being intentional about where you network, who you ask for referrals, how you lead your sales process and how you show up BEFORE you ever walk into the office. This is why the clarity work matters. Do the clarity work on Sunday so you wake up Monday with a clear head, knowing exactly who you are looking for, what you are creating and how you intend to lead. And then LEAD. Stop fearing objections. Bring the elephant into the middle of the room. “If you’re like most of my customers, you may be wondering…” GOOD. Talk about it. Laugh about it. Explain it. If they have to bring the objection to you, you’ve already given away some of your leadership. You say who. You say what. You say when. And you meet them at their WHY. You don't apologize for your process. You explain why it works. That isn't being rigid. That's being certain. And certainty is attractive. When you believe people value your clarity and leadership, you stop trying to convince everyone. You lead people naturally to select IN or OUT. You’re not selling them on you. You’re selling them on your PROCESS, and they decide whether that process works for them. No fear. No chasing. No convincing. And when someone says no? Who cares. You have a closing ratio. Be aware of it, not critical of it. The faster the wrong people select out, the more time and energy you have for the right people. Have WAY more fun with all of this. Show up to serve. Make friends. Help people. Listen to them. Demonstrate that you heard them. Be bold. Walk away when something is out of alignment.
