Don't let our goals hold you back...

I used to have a manager who liked to say " Don't let our goals hold you back". We sometimes relax if we hit our goal or projection for the week or month.

I've learned that if that happens, I should raise my goals!

From an old email comes this tip for success:

Daily Sales Tip: Always Shoot for the Next Level

The most successful salespeople stay that way by maintaining an edge on the competition. The majority of them read industry literature, join trade organizations, and regularly attend conferences and seminars to keep up to date on what's changing in their industry, and what new and emerging trends they need to be aware of.

In that spirit, a lot of top salespeople are continually looking for new ways to move upward in their own organization, whether that means attaining a new benchmark, earning a new title, or striving to achieve some type of incentive. They always have something that propels them forward, keeping them in a state of perpetual motion.
