Journal Entry: Happy sunday everyone! I have had a wild week as always! Jim Payne was in town, and we got a lot of prospecting accomplished with no financial success but I learned a lot. We also worked on quoting multiple projects that I have in the works which is great. I am working on a follow up system and process for all our current clients to track the calls I am making and how I am doing. This month is the end of the quarter, and I am at $430 Recurring Monthly Revenue and my goal is...

Journal Entry: Happy Friday Everyone! This week has been a whirlwind in a good way! I had a number of positive sales activities on behalf of Secure Pacific and that includes getting some firm no's on prospects. Just because I don't like the outcome doesn't mean the result wasn't positive. That is something you have to learn about sales, the clear future is the most valuable thing you can get, even when it is a no. This week I am also going to be moving into the new house that I am renting...

Journal Entry: Happy Sunday Everyone! This week has flown by, and I am excited for the progress that we have been making. I have been working probably 10 to 12 hours a day between Secure Pacific, Driving Uber, and running the blog. It feels great to know that I am taking the steps that I believe need to be taken to get my life back on track. There is still a long way to go to getting back to a baseline, but it all starts with action, so today we are celebrating that action! This week I got...

Journal Entry: This week has flown by! It is hard to believe we are half way through August, but that is the way time moves as life progresses. Faster and faster! This week I set up my car as an office, and finally got a laptop stand for the car. It is awesome to have a 'desk' area wherever I go and I can get to work any time I am waiting on an appointment or something like that.It is going to be especially helpful since I work remotely cold calling and doing walk-ins most of the time. My mom...

Journal Entry: Happy friday everyone! This week has been fantastic, and I feel so grateful for the opportunities that are in front of me. I spent the entire week with different members of the Secure Pacific team in Seattle, WA. We went over how the verification center works and ways I can help make their job easier. I got to shadow a customer care representative and see how we are building and maintaining the relationships that we have with our clients, and then I spent 3 days with different...

Happy Friday everyone! I hope this week has treated you well, I know it has been a blast for me! I am absolutely loving what we are doing at Secure Pacific. It is a closer mix of digital sales and real world sales than Service Experts was, which I think will make it a better fit for me long term. This week was Matt, my mentors, last week at Secure Pacific, so now I am the only one in the Boise office doing sales. I have had a few sales calls so far, and they have gone well for the most part....

Happy Friday Everyone! I hope this week has treated you as well as it has treated me! This week was my first week full time at Secure Pacific, and it has been an absolute blast! The team has been incredible to work with and I am so excited for what we are doing. This week I learned all about the products we are selling and the lead generation method that they have been using to get leads. In the training, they had a number of modules on using social media and it seems that no-one in the...

Happy Friday everyone! I hope that you are doing fantastic and getting things figured out in your world! I am getting things figured out personally which has been a challenge. This week was the last week that I worked at Service Experts, at the end of the day, I couldn't afford to work there long term and provide for my family. I am starting next week at Sonitrol Pacific, which is a security company and I will be doing home and company security systems. Over the next 10 years, the goal is to...
