How honest are YOUR New Year’s resolutions?

A cartoon strip I like recently featured one of its characters, a farm animal, making a list of New Year’s resolutions. On the list? ‘Avoid working out’ and ‘Eat more.’

Every new year, we promise ourselves, ‘This year, I’ll get things done, and get things done right.’ But an old saying, ‘The road to Hell is paved with good intentions,’ comes to mind.

We do all we can to build our businesses. We market, we advertise, we network, and we think constantly about how we can do all those things better. But are we really being honest with ourselves about how smart or how accurate our intentions actually are?

I’ve found that working hard isn’t always the same as working smart. And working smart is really important. In fact, the ‘smartness’ of your effort matters a lot more than the quantity of poorly-directed effort you make to succeed in your objectives. 

Don’t mistake me: working hard IS essential to success for most. But the question you want to ask yourself is, “Am I working smart, or just working hard to prove that I’m working hard?”

One of the main drivers behind the success of Monday Morning Markets is that it does something for Independent Agents that would be hard for them to achieve on their own. The Independent Agent who registers (for free!) to reserve a territory receives access to over 700 specialty policy coverages offered by GA’s and wholesalers that MMM has signed as Providers. 

Independent Agent, meet the Providers who can help grow your business.

It takes less than 10 minutes to apply to be a Monday Morning Markets Agency with a specific, locked-in Territory that will be yours.

Would you do something that takes less time than brewing a Keurig cup of coffee to grow your business? Of course you would.

And if you need a nudge, consider: the fastest-growing sector for Insurance professionals is Specialty Coverage. That’s why MondayMorningMarkets needs to be on your list of smart business resolutions for 2017. Do it now.
