The Two-Week Countdown!

Floyd Wickman Team
 
The Two-Week Countdown!
 
We can't wait to see you at Floyd Wickman's Master Sales Society 2014 Winter FORUM.       We've heard lots of questions about how to set a transaction goal for next year, so let's begin at the beginning.
 
Setting A Goal - STEP ONE
 
Setting any kind of goal starts with establishing your income goal.
 
Rather than just picking a random number because it looks big or feels right or sounds important, let's put some thought and research into this, so that your number has some gravity to it.
 
Start with the basic necessities: food, clothing and shelter for you and your dependents.
 
Add to that the cost of running your business, from marketing to admin to professional dues, etc.
 
And there's transportation and education. How much are you investing in your education, or in funding the education of your children?
 
Now think about funding your retirement. And paying the government.
Are you tithing, pledging or giving to charity?
 
What else do you want to do next year? Vacations, recreation, hobbies and fun.
 
And, finally, how much do you need or want to serve that PURPOSE you discovered with the 5 Why's exercise in the Focus Organizer?
 
Total it up.
 
This is the number we are converting into closings - and then into sales and sold listings - and then into listings obtained - and then into listing appointments - and then into conversations, numbers dialed and time prospecting . . . so it is the foundation number for all of our planning.
 
Take your time with establishing this income target. The more reality it has to it, the more power it will have to prevent procrastination and rationalization, the two cleverest enemies of focused, purposeful activity.
 
If you come to FORUM with the right income goal, we'll help you do all the rest of the calculations so that you start 2014 with clarity. And don't miss our own Jack Alia's all new break out session on Friday afternoon to complete your goal setting steps.

Relationships Are Where It's At

Floyd Wickman Team
Relationships Are Where It's At
 
If you follow me but I don't follow you (or if I follow you but you don't follow me,) we have an imaginary relationship.
 
You follow? I think it's called Twitter #mystalker. LOL
 
If we follow each other and like and comment and share and post and tag, we have a virtual relationship.
 
As in Facebook. BTW, Procrastinating Paula just changed her Profile Picture. Again!
 
But if we turn off the screen, leave home, share a ride or a room, 
and meet up in Ann Arbor . . .
 
And we recite the Master Salesperson Pledge together . . .
 
And we shake Floyd's hand and have our picture taken with him (to post on Instagram later) . . .
 
And we share a meal and a laugh and a dream or two together . . .
 
And we dance and learn and sing and learn some more and role play and learn even more together . . .
 
And we Applaud the success of others and learn from them together . . .
 
And we solve problems and get objective advice and share great ideas together . . .
 
And we get really, really, really focused on our goals for 2014 together . . .
 
And we get inspired and motivated and re-energized and recommitted together . . .
 
Then WE have a lifetime relationship. We call it the Master Sales Society Winter FORUM.
 
January 10-11 at the Ann Arbor Marriott. You're invited. No Klout Score necessary, but shirt and shoes required. (Just kidding.) Click HERE to register!
 
We wish you all Happy Holidays, and your best year ever in 2014!
  
See you in Ann Arbor!
