Don't do this through WhatsApp


The podcast? Recorded online.
The sale? Done via email.
Prospecting? Through social media.

Dating? On Tinder.

Saying no? Through WhatsApp.

Firing someone? On a piece of paper.

The meeting? On videoconference.

The reasons for a raise? In a Power Point.

Persistence? Better not, just in case it annoys someone.

Something very similar was explained a few days ago by the great Monge Malo, the best sales coach in Spanish language this week.

And he is so right.

You spend your life doing whatever it takes to avoid conflict, risk, expense, or loss…
​
​

Weak. Gallina.

Go, call, show up, and slam your fist on the table.

​
The sale, the raise, the agreement, the job done, are in the conflict.

In facing it, accepting that it’s an essential part of a fulfilling life.

Seek out the conflict, don’t avoid it.
No one ever won a war by hiding in the trenches. Worse yet, they ended up dying just the same.

Since you’re going to be rejected anyway, since they’ll get annoyed and even insult you no matter what, at least do what you need to do to make it happen.

Same story. “Like beheaded chickens.” Clients changing direction mid-procurement. Swapping teams halfway through. Rewriting strategy… in the middle of a transaction. Yes. That bad. Even...

Most consultants are expensive spectators. Nice slides.Clean Excel models.Zero impact. They show up.They talk.They disappear. And the project?Still stuck. In the mouse wheel… running but still in the same place. It may be the perverse incentive of maximizing gains by increasing scope and delaying everything… although that’s for another days. Look… In big projects, nobody pays you for your time.They pay you for one thing: Movement. Decisions made.Problems killed.Risks reduced.Money saved....

This is a nice week for me. Birthday and week of great decisions. Decisions on my businesses. Decisions on my investments. Important ones. You see… I feel butterflies in my stomach. Fear. Doubts. So, I know perfectly well that I’m growing. I’m making progress. Look.
