Feeling stuck? Youâre not alone! When things arenât moving, when you feel like youâre putting the most effort and work youâve ever put in, and yet still nothing⌠Well that is one of the toughest spots to be in. Hereâs a few tips that help me get exterior to the problem so I feel like I can better assess, strategize, and take impactful actionâŚ
1. Look back at when you were last doing your best and really trace back from the results what you exactly were doing. If youâre in sales maybe you see the bulk of your closes were coming from a particular lead source, or you had a different structure / flow line you contacted and sold the leads by. Maybe you just dropped out the basics like actually following your script, reviewing your recorded calls, etc. something changed and when you find the thing that changed and revert back to it, you will see a spike come back.
2. Break down your goal into sub-goals and track them religiously. Evaluate the data on a regular basis (recommend weekly) and adjust the sub-goals based on how things are converting. Goals are achieved by keeping your eye on the leading metrics on a regular basis and truly ârunning yourselfâ off of these targets.
3. Get a trusted outsiderâs perspective. When youâre stuck in your situation and the day to day of it all, it can be easy to lose your certainty on what to do. Having a confidant that creates a safe space for you to be real with them, a true judgement free zone, that also understands the mechanics of what youâre trying to do IS INVALUABLE. This can be a founder thatâs done what you want to do, or an executive at another company that is over the same area of difficulty youâre experiencing. And yes it could even be someone like me, a consultant. Iâve personally helped over 300 companies scale their sales and operations over the last 8 years. Every week I leave a few slots open on my calendar to provide free scaling sessions. Itâs one of the ways I get to learn new industries, stay sharp, and feel like Iâm contributing to others in a way thatâs meaningful. If you think thatâd be helpful you can comment or DM me and weâll set it up :)
