Sales…quite honestly it is the biggest mind game that I know for the success of your home based franchise. Once you have mastered the art of selling you have mastered your key to success in everything that you do; not just success in your home based franchise.
One of the best sources of getting your mind in the game of selling and making your home based franchise a huge success is Og Mandino’s The Greatest Salesman In The World. It’s the story of passing down a chest of scrolls from one great salesperson to another. When studied, learned and implemented, these scrolls hold in them the secret of how to not only achieve great wealth and prosperity, but the ultimate happiness in life.
It is the messages in these 10 scrolls that have made me a top sales producer for the last 20 years. Scroll One is the foundation of the entire chest of the scrolls and is the bottom line of your home based franchise success.
What I believe is so important and for most will find it a huge relief, is the first scroll acknowledges that you do not necessarily have to have experience or have great knowledge to achieve great success...What Mandino describes in the first scroll is that it is the principles that we keep, that will make us successful, wealthy and live the life of our dreams.
Mandino states all that success really is...is a state of mind. We hear this every day: You are what you think about...Right?? Through Mandino’s works you can now put into simple action what is necessary to have that positive and successful state of mind to create your home based franchise and live the lifestyle of your dreams.
The only true thing that stands between your success and your failure…is the difference of your habits. Good habits are and will always be the key to all success. The first thing that you must do is form good habits and repeat those good habits day in and day out.
Believe me, forming habits whether they are good or bad…is a discipline. It is widely known that to form a habit is to do something every single day without fail for 30 days straight.
The first scroll instructs you to read each scroll/principle 3 times each day for 30 days.
By repeating the scrolls/principles in this fashion for 30 straight days you then internalize and own that habit; that habit becomes a natural part of your day and happens without any added effort.
The next 9 articles will take you through each scroll which in essence is a new habit to be learned. If you read and reread the messages to be learned, by the end of the 10th article you will have all that is needed to be the top home based franchise within your organization.
The key to your success is, however, taking action. Are you ready, willing and able to make the commitment to yourself and to the success to your home based franchise to make the next 9 lessons natural habits in your life?
If you are, congratulations for finally being able to live the life of your dreams. I’ll see you tomorrow.

The Greatest Story Ever Sold
Back in the late 1980’s, the Honda Motor Company ran a memorable series of commercials, the basic premise of which was that the company’s cars were so amazing, they sold themselves. This commercial’s “hook” was that it featured a salesman who was bored out of his mind and had nothing to do because the cars were so in demand they were practically walking off the lot. The brand’s slogan at the time was “Honda, the car that sells itself.” Ha!

Decision-Maker or Decision-Faker?
Excerpt from the book "Chase the Championship - Kicking Ass, Taking Names and Becoming a Dealmaker!" Stay far away from the boss’s underlings when you are in search of a decision. The heads of Marketing, IT, Human Resources, or whoever else is part of the “decision-making chain” for the product or service that you are selling should never be the people that you go after for a commitment.
