Here is a REAL story that we will all face as home based entrepreneurs: eventually you will enter a phase where you begin to question your ability to sell anything .... you can bank on that story being part of everyone's career and for those that are reading this column and find themselves in that situation let me remind you of a number and two names that everyone is familiar with:
THE NUMBER IS 1311
THE NAMES ARE COLONEL SANDERS & WALT DISNEY
And as Paul Harvey would say "now for the rest of the story" which involves:
Colonel Sanders was broke and alone at age 65 living off a Social Security Check of $105 monthly with ownership of a Chicken Recipe he wanted to sell to Restaurants with a hopeful working relationship of percentage sales for his original idea ... an idea was presented over 1009 times before he heard his first YES and the rest as we know is history.
Walt Disney has a Vision of Creating the "Happiest Place on Earth" which we all know today as Disney World ... and on behalf of millions of families a Sincere Round of Thanks goes out to this Innovative Thinker who heard the word NO a total of 302 times before he finally found a bank that had the courage to finance a Concept that has become famous for the words "I am going to Disneyworld" as uttered every year by the MVP Trophy Winner in the Super Bowl.
Remember these two stories as it will make everyone realize that Dreams are Created by a Persistent Belief in One's Inner Self and without that trait Kentucky Fried Chicken and the Disney Family Entertainment Parks would have never become a part of the American Landscape.
TO YOUR SUCCESS!!
