We Shall Fight Them On The Beaches

OK, it’s time for me to get all Monty on you.

Consider this a battle cry.

We’ve been besieged by the economy, so we need to suit up and soldier on.

Remember I talked about those wartime consiglieres?

Well, it’s not just our clients who need them.

Every business needs one.

Every business has made cutbacks – we’re as lean as we can be.

If we want to stay in business, we need to grow, we need to sell.

Instead of being shell-shocked or battle-weary, we need to toughen up.

If the business has hit a wall, we’re gonna have to smash out way through it.

Sell more.

“I can’t!” you cry.

Until we can claim 100% market share in our industry, there’s still work to be done.

Start thinking soldier...
