1000 Watts on Chip

I've posted about 1000Watt Blog in the past.  In particular I commented on their "I'm not a lead" video that made me an instant fan.

Last week's schedule for me was jam-packed, so I needed to put a few things to the side. Blogging and reading favorite blogs took the hit.  This morning while playing catch-up, I read Marc Davison's posting. "There's something about Chip".  Again, like the video mentioned, this Blog blew me away. 

Chip's story and message is so inspirational.  He shares a simple philosophy that is often overlooked in today's business world.   It is a lesson my father taught to me when I was a boy; "Your word is your bond"; pure and simple.  Chip's message is essentially the same; be on time, deliver what you promise and offer the customer value.

Thanks to Chip and Marc for helping to keep my path on track.  

And I get it

Within the conventions of old school sales there are methods of gaining new clients and customers. Some sales agents prospect for "leads".  Others incorporate "drip e-mail campaigns"  Still others follow up with their "contacts" and place warm and cozy images with family; even including the household pooch on their websites.

There are even websites developed to produce leads for salespeople.  What these folks are missing is that no one wants to be "sold" anything.  But, buyers do want to buy.

I came across 1000Watt Blog.com (now, an instant fan) and a particular video there that blew me away.  It is titled, "I am not a lead".
