"I have had the privilege to have known Gary for many years professionally and personally. Sometimes the quality of the people we meet can be judged by the distance between professional and personal. With Gary there is no distance; honesty, integrity, passion for people, and the ardent desire to succeed are what Gary brings to any business and friendship. Your business will not improve until your people do, and Gary can show the way. One of God's truly special people."

Everything Starts With Prospecting
In my book, Principle Power For Sales Success, I wrote “As important as skills, competencies, and knowledge are, without the ability to prospect effectively, build relationships, and have new people to see on an ongoing basis, you never get to put into practice what you know.”

What is the first sale that we make?

It's the appointment!

Until we make this sale, we don’t have the opportunity to make any other sales!

Clearly, the appointment is a critical first sale!

Remember: First impressions are important. Whether you're asking for an appointment in person or by phone, be prepared and be professional. Whether you're face to face with the prospect or grabbing a few precious seconds of his or her telephone time, you never get a second chance to make a first impression.

Without people to see, nothing else matters.
