Lesson 2:Share the Opportunity
with everyone!
“You miss 100% of the shots you choose not to take” …Michael Jordan
Lesson 3:Behind every “No” is a “Yes”
One year in, I could not get any bookings
Met with Jerry who told me, “Ginny, you are not going to like what I have to say, but you just have to go home and make more calls until you get the one YES”
Jerry was right! I learned my second business lesson: “Behind every No is a YES. You just have to keep ASKING until you get it!”
