Today is 20% of your salesweek.
Two salesdays are 10% of your month. (A salesmonth is made up of roughly 21 days.)
To lose only two salesdays each month to fatigue or a desire to wait for a better day to make the call would be to lose more than a full month of salesdays each year.
Imagine if your income reflected your slow days… and know that in the long run, it probably does.
47 salesdays remain in the quarter. Tic toc.

What if you checked email only 3 times a day?
Since November 2010, we’ve been doing this as a team at JustSell to see if it helps us.
Here’s what we’ve learned.

Today is one month out from Christmas day.
In the SalesQuote we published on the day after Christmas, I highlighted some history of the day and suggested that the date itself was arbitrary and that we should carry the holiday’s spirit every day. A few subscribers were a bit annoyed with some of what I said (the original “Merry Today” post is here).
I just came across another piece written about a 100 years ago by a preacher that says what I was trying to say, but so much better. It’s called “Keeping Christmas” – something I plan to remind myself with on a weekly basis (about a 3-minute read). I hope you enjoy it.
