10 things that won’t survive the recession

Tight times, and budgets, will hasten the end for some things

I recieved this in an email this week and I think it is well said……..

The government says we’ve been in a recession for the past year. Experts say it’ll be at least another year before it’s over. And everybody says it’s the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression.

Nice sound bite. What does that mean?

Who knows? We can be sure that this downturn will differ totally from the Depression, and also different from the many recessions we’ve suffered every decade or every other decade since the ’30s. I’m not an economist or a historian, but it seems to me that this recession will be something unprecedented.

As you know I believe that Networking and getting to know people is the way to build a strong and Healthy Business.……

Yesterday I attended a “Move Ahead 1” event where Herb Cohen spoke.  Herb is world renowned  known for his abilities as a negotiator.  During his talk he touched on negotiating in other cultures.  He pointed out that in sales there are only three countries in the world where “COLD CALLING” is expectable, the USA, Canada and Australia.  In all other cultures you must be introduced before anyone will talk to you about your goods and services.   COLD CALLING is a no no. 

 I attended the event with  gentleman that started off as a client a year back and is now a client and friend.   I would like to introduce him to you in person but he lives way out on long island.  So I’ll Introduce him to you via the internet. No cold calling here.

My networking friends,  

 I’m often asked why should we do business with you.  Obviously I’m always ready to answer this question.  If you are going to be successful in business you better be able to answer that question.
