My sales performance recently took a nosedive, and instead of feeling defeated, I seized this moment as an opportunity for growth. I’m analyzing trends: Digging deep into data to understand what changed and why. I’m seeking feedback: Engaging with clients and my team for insights that can spark new ideas. I’m re-evaluating strategies: Testing new approaches and embracing innovative solutions to meet evolving needs. I’m focusing on relationships: Strengthening connections with existing clients while nurturing potential ones. With determination and resilience, I’m committed to transforming this challenge into a stepping stone for success.

At some point in your journey, you might feel stagnant, or your results are not quite what you want to achieve. This is when you need to lean on data in regards to results and activity. 1. How much activity have you been doing in the last 90-120 days? Typically, results have a lag time, so if you go back 90 days, it will give you an indication of what you focused on. Then, think about what you were "not" doing. What can you now pick up and commit to? 2. How much focus have you given to lead generation and nurture of your pipeline? There has to be a healthy focus on acquisition to continue increasing your sales. 3. Look at your own personal presentation. Can you identify opportunities for growth and expansion?
