Motivational Monday’s

Happy Memorial Day – Recharge the Battery, and Let’s Eat!

It’s early here at my house. The sun is barely up, the coffee is brewing, and the neighborhood is completely quiet. I wanted to slip out to the keyboard and put a quick post together for you all before the chaos of the day officially kicks off.

Monday Morning Motivation: The Power of Intentionality

Stop waiting for the “perfect” lead and start building your empire.

I was talking to a friend of mine recently about a salesperson he knows who is trying to break into the merchant services business. This guy has spent a small fortune on “masterclasses,” paid for every training module under the sun, and has all the materials ready to go. The problem? He has yet to pull a single door handle or pick up the phone.

Monday Morning: Turning “The Grind” Into Your Competitive Edge

Some days Monday mornings doesn’t always feel like a fresh start for me. Sometimes, it feels like staring at a mountain of “no’s” and a list of gatekeepers that I’m quite ready to face.

Is it hard to get going on Mondays? Absolutely. The coffee, Dr. Pepper hasn’t quite kicked in, our CRM looks daunting, and the comfort of our home office (or even our car) feels a lot safer than walking into a cold business.

“Bye, Bye, Bye” to “It’s Gonna Be May” to “May the 4th Be with You”

We’ve officially survived the Justin Timberlake memes of last week and landed right into the heart of the galaxy. Whether you spent your weekend resting or chasing leads, today is a pivot point. We are moving out of the “spring training” phase of Q2 and into the heat of the season.

The Monday Sprint: 4 Days to Legend Status

Happy Monday, team. Take a look at the calendar. It’s April 27th.

There are exactly four days left in the month. For most people, that’s a “wind down” period. For the elite in merchant services, this is where the magic happens. This is the Red Zone.

The Highs of 4/20

Happy 4/20 to the warriors of the pavement and the kings of the cold call!

While the rest of the world is busy pondering the deep philosophical connection between Taco Bell and existentialism, we know what today actually represents for a Merchant Services rep: The ultimate test of patience.

What Are You Waiting For?

In our line of work sales can be a roller coaster. There are those days when you’re riding high, closing deals left and right. And then there are those days when it feels like you’re stuck in neutral, the phones are dead, and you’re questioning your life choices.
