Good People Aren't Hard To Find
© Ian Berry All rights reserved
The old phrase "Good people are
hard to find" is alive and well. I don't believe it. I meet good
people every day. The tragedy is that many of these good people are
hiding beneath a veil of low self esteem and we can't or won't see
beyond.
The other main reason we don't see
the good people before our eyes is that we are not attractive enough
ourselves. Like does attract like.
Here are 14 ways to see the good
people and be one yourself
1) Ensure your personal values are
defined and measured
2) Align your business values with
your personal values
3) Don't hire anybody not aligned
with your values
4) When you do hire people make
sure you hire to match clearly defined roles along a supplier - customer
chain.
5) Induct all new employees
professionally
6) Continually check that
individual goals and the strategies to achieve them are aligned with
team and business goals and strategies
7) Monitor informal performance
feedback exchange. We should be general in our praise and specific in
our criticism
8) Hold formal performance feedback
sessions for two reasons; to celebrate performance and plan for the
future
9) Never confuse people or
personalities with problems
10) Keep everything simple.
Simplicity is the one thing we know everybody wants
11) Have a relationship management
system, just make sure it is about building and growing relationships
and not about having a system
12) Your employees are your number
one customers. Never forget it
13) Customers aren't always right.
They are always first
14) Be the best you can be. You
will meet a lot of other people like yourself then, and your life will
be a whole lot happier. And you won't find good people all that hard to
find at all.
Be the difference you want to see
in the world.

- Good Question Evan,
Hard to answer as we always seem to be keeping several balls in the air at the same time so my answer would be to stay disciplined and focussed and trust your long term plan.
It seems a bit cheesy to say that but I find it's true because if I don't stay focussed I will lose all discipline and that is something that is a must for any aspiring Internet Marketer.
regards,
Mal.

Re: Did you buy into the iPhone 3G craze?
- Kevin,
Arent you the EBay guy?? oh well, we all make mistakes....like me buying new tires at Active Green & Ross after I blew out a tire on the 401. I let the guy scare me into the sale and then when I took my care into my mechanic he told me I got hosed....and to never let anyone scare you into buying stuff again....
anyway, I'm glad you got the new battery in any case. I think we will soon be able to go completely without contracts so we arent held hostage...

Re: Twiiter an sales
- Lots of different ways soldlab. I would start with:
1) Identify your ideal accounts and see if they're on Twitter. Get to know them and what they're interested in. Reply to their tweets and get on their radar screens. Before long they'll be checking out your profile and will be curious as to what you're selling.
2) Follow key words that relate to your industry. Find people who have a problem that you can solve and offer to help. Get involved in the discussion around your industry and be seen as an expert.
Good luck!
