Potty Training Prospects

I’m sorry but I giggled out loud when this title came to me. Potty training prospects, are you serious Aaron? Well….kind of.

One of my favorite Sandler rules is “Your meter is always running.” When I am at home with the family I can stop thinking about work for the most part but the piece that drives my wife crazy is the correlation to everything in sales. Here is what I mean….just last week we hit a milestone at the Prickel-household, our soon to be 3 year old son is finally potty trai… Continue

Presentation Before Diagnosis is Sales Malpractice

Every once in a while we do things that help us learn a lesson or make for a great teaching moment, I am 99% positive my Dad did not have this planned out but it was a great lesson and one I am passing down to others.

I received a call from my Dad a few weeks back. He retired 2 years ago from being an over-the-road Truck Driver. If you don’t know anyone in this profession (in my mind one hardest/most stressful professions) one common thing among Drivers is they are known to have bad bac… Continue

This lead to… Continue

Everyone Should Have One

My wife and I went on a trip to Mazatlan Mexico to get away for a bit. We have been to Mexico several times for vacations but this was our first time to Mazatlan. My Mom had an unused week for her timeshare and asked if we wanted to use it before it expired. She was crazy enough to take the kids so I didn’t think twice and booked the flights and off we went!

As soon as we check in that evening the front desk informs us we are ‘eligible’ for a free breakfast and a 500 peso credit if we spend 90… Continue

The Internal Pilot Light

With another year zipping by I found myself reflecting this past weekend on 2009. One of the questions I asked myself was “why do I actually enjoy getting out of bed in the morning?” This question came about as I was talking with a close friend of mine who does not enjoy where he works. After he left our house and the kids were in bed I started to wind down and think why I actually enjoy what I do. There are many reasons, but the number one reason was I like to help people. I know, sounds corny… Continue
