On the Road Again…

Hope everyone had a great Mother’s Day!

 

Hit the Play button below for a musical accompaniment to this blog post… and per Don’s request yesterday I went with one of my favorite Willie Nelson tunes…

 
(I know this music stuff is getting old but I made a few more changes and I want to make sure I’ve got the audio all figured out before moving on to video)

Now I’m getting ready to go see customers this week up in the Carolinas.  I have eleven meetings scheduled for Tues-Thursday, eight of them are with people who have active projects.  Things are starting to get better for manufacturing plants out there in flyover country…

 

The only way to really stay close with some of your customers and find other opportunities is visiting them and seeing them face-to-face.  One of the greatest assets any small business has is the relationship that the sales pros have with your customers…

 

Once I get back home Thursday night, I have a quick trip to Memphis and Graceland planned for the weekend with a big Elvis fan!  That is going to be a blast…

 

Have a great week and talk to some of your customers in person!

    Rob -

    GREAT choice of music – so appropriate for your week ahead! Here’s to lots of great traction with your customers and a fun-filled time of R&R at Graceland.

  5. Wishing you motivated customer relationships for life, Rob. They’d be lucky to have you as a business relationship.

    I love Willie Nelson and On the Road Again.

    Missing The Road Warrior. Whenever I would see his blog, I would think of that song.

    I have to listen to it again now.

    My hat is of to you sir. Anyone who can listen to Bob Marley and Willie must be a complete person. (Hell, truth be know Bob and Willie probably smoked a bone together!) have a rockin good time at Graceland and may the force be with you.
