Weird dream...

I wanted to blog about this...

A few nights ago, I had a very weird dream... I dreamt that I was in a bar and across from me sat O.J. Simpson! I wondered what he was doing there - in a bar in France (let alone what was I doing there, too).  I glared at him for several minutes with my meanest look ever.. and my friend came into the bar to meet me.... She went over to O.J., started talking to him... wanted to introduce me.. I said... what are you talking to that scumbag for.. etc... Anyhow... it was even WEIRDER that I remembered the dream the next morning and while I was telling Alex about my weird dream over breakfast, who shows up on the tv screen?  None other than O.J. Simpson!! I was in the Twilight Zone for a few moments and just thought it was the strangest thing that I had a dream about him and then saw him the next morning on tv!!!!  Hmmmmmmm.... bizarre!!!

Washinton Mutual not out of the woods yet!

Had a great scare a few days ago when a good friend in San Diego emailed to advise me to get my money out of Wamu 'cuz they're have HUGE problems and may go under soon!  YIIKEES!  Anyhow.. It prompted me to take quick action and even though things may have quieted down by the short-term actions of the U.S. gov't-- I don't really feel safe having my money in this particular bank any longer- Mind you... I have been with them a LONG TIME-- since 1983 when they were still Great Western... Well, all this talk about banks and stuff got me thinking about the U.S. economy and how this particular friend of mine also believes strongly that the U.S. is headed for a Depression!  Can you imagine?  I know that for years, it's been in a recession.. but a full-blown Depression would be an outright disaster.  What do you all think and how does this affect you... Just wondering!

EWWWWWW!!! GROSSSS!!!

I JUST DRANK CURDLED MILK!!!Yuckkk!!!! I feel like throwing up now! So, I chased it down with a mouthful of Bison Grass Vodka and a mouthful of pure cassanis.... I don't know if feel any better but as long as I forget those chunks of curdled milk that's just fine by me..... UGGGHHH!!!

Profesional Sales

Menjadi Profesional dalam bidang apapun menjadi tujuan dari setiap person, seorang Profesional dalam bidangnya bukan ditentukan karena anda memiliki gelar atau karena kita diberikan oleh sesorang suatu gelar khusus. Hal-hal kita lakukan pada hari inilah yang akan membuat kita menjadi seorang profesional pada hari ini.

Kita menjadi seorang profesional manakala kita dapat bertindak sebagai seorang profesional dan kita akan berhenti menjadi seorang profesional manakala kita berhenti bertindak seperti layaknya seorang profesional.

Bidang apapun yang kita geluti saat ini, kita harus bertindak dan bersikap secara sempurna. Para profesional bertindak pada tingkat kesempurnaan yang jarang dicapai oleh orang lain dan sering bertindak atau melakukan berbagai dalam kegiatannya yang dirasakan oleh orang lain tidak mungkin atau tidak dapat dilakukan.

Para profesional selalu memberikan perhatian penuh kepada pada apa yang perlu mereka capai dalam setiap moment, sebagai contoh :

- Mereka tidak melakukan suatu pekerjaan atau suatu kegiatan setengah jalan (Menuntaskan setiap kegiatan, project atau misi yang sedang dijalankan).

- Tidak menunda pekerjaan yang dapat dilakukan sekaran.

- Selalu mencoba melakukan peningkatan dan perbaikan terhadap apa yang dilakukan untuk mendapatkan kesempurnaan.

Ciri lain yang dapat kita temukan dari seorang profesional adalah mereka lebih banyak "mengetahui" tentang apa dan mengapa yang mereka lakukan dari pada orang lain. Pemahaman dari "Apa yang diketahui" adalah sangat berhubungan dengan pemahaman yang mendetail tentang semua hal yang berkaitan dengan objek kegiatan tersebut. Kaum profesional juga selalu terlihat tidak mudah menyerah, senantiasa belajar dan berlatih lebih banyak dibandingkan dengan orang lain dalam tujuan untuk dapat "Menjadi lebih baik dalam apa yang mereka lakukan".

Menjadi seorang profesional sales dan selalu unggul serta dapat mengalahkan para pesaing anda (rekan penjual anda) anda perlu melakukan :

1. Memahami produk anda dan produk pesaing anda

Pelajari produk perusahaan anda, produk pesaing anda, pelanggan anda dan situasi lingkungan bisnis dimana anda berada. Kumpulkan informasi selengkap mungkin yang dapat anda lakukan kemudian pelajari dengan teliti dan terbaru. Informasi sekecil apapun sangat penting dan dapat menjadi faktor yang sangat menentukan di dalam kegiatan penjualan yang sedang kita lakukan.

2. Tetapkan tujuan dan susunlah rencana untuk mencapainya

Selalu menyusun dan membuat daftar prioritas, berikan peringkat sehingga anda dapat menentukan hal mana yang kita lakukan terlebih dahulu (Hal yang berkontribusi langsung kepada bidang penjualan memiliki peringkat lebih tinggi). Tegas dan konsisten untuk menjalankan apa yang telah anda susun, jangan menghabiskan waktu anda pada hal-hal yang kurang penting.

3. Berlatihlah sampai mencapai suatu kesempurnaan dan senantiasa melakukan peningkatan.

Seorang pemain sepakbola pada posisi striker selama karirnya (lebih kurang 17 tahun) selalu memainkan bola, berlatih dengan bola, menendang, umpan, heading dan berusaha mencetak gol. Ia selalu dengan peran tersebut " setiap waktu ia selalu berusaha untuk dapat lebih baik menjalankan perannya dari waktu sebelumnya". Menurut saya hal yang sama juga berlaku di bidang penjualan.

" Jika orang penjualan yang tidak sukses mulai melakukan apa yang juga dilakukan orang penjualan yang sukses, mereka akan menjadi sama suksesnya"

Selamat menjual ....,

Good Supervisor

Typically, no one is trained to be a supervisor. Everyone has to learn how to manage people on the fly after being promoted into a management position. When learning to be a good supervisor, it's helpful to keep in mind the things that past supervisors have done that you liked—and those that you have not liked. You can use these experiences to guide your decisions. 

As such, here are six steps to follow to make sure you become a leader that others will remember in a positive light. 

1. Tame yourself. 

You have to begin by understanding your personality and taming it. If you are too quiet, you will need to work on becoming more outgoing and decisive. If you are too decisive, to the point where you scare people, you will need to work on toning yourself down. You want to become a thoughtful and considerate leader who knows where they are going.

2. Have a goal. 

If you don't know where you are going, you will never arrive, and no one will be able to follow you. Your goal can be as simple as providing "every customer with the best service" or "no injuries, no deaths on the job" or "make a profit."

3. Have a clear, simple message.

You must be able to convey your goal in a sound bite. People can understand and retain clear, simple messages. You have to be able to repeat the message at meetings, in newsletters and in general conversations. If your people know the message, they will be able to follow.

4. Look and act like a leader. 

People have a much easier time following someone who looks as they should. Your clothes should be clean and pressed. Your shoes should be polished. You should walk with confidence. You Should the best placed for the solution. You have to many ideas and could to encourage team to achievement target.

5. Be trustworthy.

People won't follow you if they don't trust you. You must be ethical and honest at all times. People trust people who are clear about what they are doing. People don't trust people who say one thing at a meeting, and then say or do something different outside of the meeting.

6. Care about your people. 

You can't supervise people if you don't like them. You shouldn't become best friends with your staff, but you should know them and know what their problems are. Because you care, you should attend their weddings, and the funerals of their close family members. Because you are their leader, you should not attend more personal functions, such as their birthday parties. You need to keep yourself concerned with your staff, but not intimately involved with them. If you are really not a "people person," consider another, non-managerial position in your organization.

Ok now You has knowed how to be Good Supervisor, Act now and getting the best result for your career. The key has in your hand.
