ready for a great week!

A Great Weekend

Wow what a great weekend. Great time with the family swimming, walking and just playing. Although I just got back from vacation I needed to recharge my battery (I am sure most of you understand). This week will be a busy, short week and am ready to hit the ground running.

a friday with much to do, clients to see and projects to organize - love what I do!

another day another puddle of sweat

What's Important to a Salesperson

I have been doing a lot of reading lately and have a question that I am working on. What is more impoortant, a new client or an existing one? Currently there is a lot of pressure to obtain new - but is it coswting people existing ones? My belief is new are good, but you have to make SURE your relationships with existing is awesome (not just good) and that it always is priority one. What are your thoughts?

Boyd Bailey has accepted our invitation to come to New Orleans to be our speaker for the 2009 Partners in Christ prayer breakfast!

Boyd is founder and Chairman of Wisdom Hunters, LLC and is the author of two devotional books, Infusion and Seeking Daily the Heart of God; Boyd is also founder of Ministry Ventures, a venture capital firm for early stage ministries which has helped 45 start-up ministries raise over $15.5 million and impact over 35,000 people for Christ. Prior to Ministry Ventures, Bailey was the National Director for Crown Financial Ministries. He was instrumental in the expansion of Crown into 30 major markets across the U.S. He was a key facilitator in the 25 million dollar merger between Christian Financial Concepts and Crown Ministries. Before Crown he and Andy Stanley started First Baptist Atlanta’s north campus; and as an Elder, Boyd assisted Andy in the start of North Point Community Church. In college he bought a service business with five employees. This business endeavor financed his education and the equity from its sale was the economic launching pad for his graduate school experience.

Boyd Bailey was born in Huntsville, Alabama and received his Bachelor of Arts from Jacksonville State University and his Masters of Divinity from Southwestern Seminary in FT. Worth, Texas. Boyd and his wife Rita live in Roswell, GA. They have been married 30 years and are blessed with four daughters and two son-in-laws who love Jesus!

Again this year we will be providing all attendees a free book, Boyd’s Infusion devotional.
We also will be having prayer time on Mon, Tues, Thur and Fri mornings at 6:30 AM. It will be held at the Residence Inn New Orleans Convention Center at 345 St. Joseph Street. Exact room location will be in the daily update where we will count down the days to WPC and the Partners in Christ breakfast. If you won’t be in New Orleans, or aren’t in the technology business, we ask you join us in praying for our industry and the marketplace ministry we are working to establish. We need God’s touch to make things happen for His glory and honor and praise. Hope to see many of you in NOLA.

Trying to stay dry - which is impossible today

Day Two

Well day one ended good at work but, sucked at home. Need to find a way to get balance in goodness :). Family is good (although tired) but garage door broke last night as well as something is wrong with the air conditioner - oh well it is only money.

getting ready to go home to see the family :)

taking client to lunch and then have client meetings - need to get out of the office (feels like 105 outside)

back in the office making IT happen!

Good Morning

After an extended absence I am back. Worked out this morning and ready to hit it hard. Hopefully the energy will stay with me. Life is dragging my energy down and need to get it back up again. I will keep you posted.

short week - heading to Vegas this week - yeah baby!

back in the office and working on paperwork

Back at ICIT conference - day #2.

At the ICIT conference in West Des Moines

back in the saddle and sitting in on a great sales conference call

Have you ever had one of those days that you work hard on something, everything looks great and then someone comes along and just rips everything apart? Well I feel today is one of those days...

Enjoying a wonderful cup of coffee and getting some work done at Starbucks before my next meeting. What did we do before we had wireless connections? How in the world did we get anything done?
