I was walking through the internet and ran across a story by Ronda Del Boccio, The Story Lady on March 30, 2009 at http://profitablestorytelling.com/blog/2009/03/30/how-does-changing... all about How to Tank Your Business and How Does Changing Your Direction Change Your Results? Well after reading this I deceided to be Mr Paul Harvey and give "The rest of the story......
People call me a blind visionary for a reason having no sight has given me great insight.
I see the signs of what is on the horizon for a business and act accordingly. This means that I stop doing business with someone who is going down a path of greed or a path that shows they are flushing their business down the toilet so it ends up in the sewer.
So here’s the story for today.
Imagine that there is a company that makes a truly delicious coffee. It is a one of a kind coffee and no other MLM is roasting coffee in this way. I’ll call this company Bore-ing. Two men co-own the company. One of the men is Marty the Bluejay. He runs after the latest Bright Shiny Object (BSO) that glitters and sparkles and grabs his attention.All he cares about is the people that can bring a flock with you to the company. So if you bring in under 100 in your flock, you do not even count.
When something new and exciting comes along, he drops everything he is doing and chases the BSO.
His partner, Salesman Sam, aka Glad-handing Nathan, is a hard core kind of guy who is always looking for a new profit stream. Enter Dr. Black Widow.
Dr. Black Widow spins a web of stories about how her product will be a blessing to millions of people. Her story is sweet and compelling. The problem she solves is so very big and her solution the brightest of Bright Shiny Objects there is. A solution to a heavy problem that causes over half the US population to be weighed down.
Dr. Black Widow presented her astounding BSO to the owners of BORE-ING. Can you imagine what happened? You bet. She is now been promoted to God's right hand and don't you dare try to questions a supreme being.
It goes right back to the question that opened this post, and perhaps it is something that has happened to YOU.
How does changing your direction change your results?
Well a little more info is needed......
Dr. Black Widow’s aim is to take over control of companies. She ensnared Marty the Bluejay and Glad-handing Nathan in her web of deceit. What a perfect marriage of her technology and theirs! What money they will make together! How many lives they will change! Oh, indeed she wove an intricate web!
You’re bright enough to have guessed what happened by now. Marty the Bluejay and Gladhanding Nathan fell under the spell of her poison. They decided that a good business venture for a coffee company would be to sell male hormone pills, yep you guess it Male enhancement grow it long and with a smile. I guess that’s another form of raising energy? Gee how do I explain this to teh Girl Scouts that are using my coffee for a fund raiser that they can enhance daddy too? Won't momy be so proud of me? (Have you thought of tai chi or deep breathing?)
As it turns out, Dr. Black Widow has left a long trail of sticky situations in her wake. It takes a little research, but at least 17 companies have fallen under Dr. Black Widow’s spell. BORE-ING is thoroughly bound in her sticky poison, and they’re going down. Maybe not this month. Maybe not even this year. But they are definitely tanking the business. Dr. Black widow's patents are suspect and questionable and even her DR is in question. Can not find her Clinical trials or even her lab at a PO BOX.
The thing is, they have changed the direction of the company and every company she has touched and not for the good. It is like going into a tire store and finding that they sell toss pillows too. And even though the tires may roll great and the pillows toss divinely, you don’t go to a tire shop for toss pillows.
BORE-ING’s coffee is great, but you don’t get those Johnny jump-up pills at a cafe!
Choose Your Direction.
One of the most important things you can do in any business, whether you are an author or an architect, a broker or a builder, is to choose your direction. You have to know where you want to go in order to get anywhere meaningful.
What’s your point? To get you started, please visit the Storytelling Templates page and write down your answers to the “Questions for Clarity.”
What’s your direction? Where do you want to be in 3–5 years in every aspect of your life? You won’t know everything that will happen along the way, but everything you choose to do should lead you one step closer to your goals and dreams.
Are you thinking strategically, or tactically? Most people are thinking tactically. I need traffic, so I’ll buy this traffic product. I need money, so I’ll buy a make money program. I hear PPC is good, so I’ll get a PPC program. Those are tactics. If you’re thinking strategically, you’re playing your business like a game of chess.
Resources
One of the best pieces of advice I can give you is to overhaul your mindset. A great program to help you do this is a 30–day boot camp for your mind called best Affirmations. You’ll do a specific activity each day that teaches you to power-up your mind.
Another tool I love is Mark Joyner’s Simpleology. This gives you a specific, simple system with a daily “target praxis” to keep you on track.
Take the free classes at https://www.robintrushlo.com/Showcase.html Be sure also to complete the “Questions for Clarity” on the Storytelling Templates page and send me your answers using the contact form or email. I would love to assist you on your road to clarity, because I do NOT want you to tank your business!
