Just a quick update to my post from yesterday. I gave three examples of salespeople who weren’t letting the economy be an excuse for not reaching their numbers. I didn’t identify my three coaching clients by name simply because I had not asked their permission.
Well, one asked me to let folks know who he is–he’s obviously proud of his accomplishments as he well should be. The business banker I mentioned in the first example of one of my coaching clients who is busting numbers is Jacques Jourdan, business banker with Chase Business Banking on Long Island. Jacques is an excellent example of someone who isn’t letting the economy be an excuse for not making his quota. As a matter of fact, as mentioned yesterday, Jacques was the number one business banker in his area last month and is well on his way to doing it again this month.
Again, despite the economy, there a lot of people and companies out there that need, want, and can afford your products and services. You just have to be like Jacques and find ways to get in front of them that they respect and will respond to.
By the way, if you are a business owner, manager or independent professional in the Long Island area and need a business loan, equipment financing, line of credit, checking or savings account, or any other banking product or service, Jacques is a good guy to know–and hay, he just happens to be one of the leading business bankers in your area. You can get in touch with him at jacques.a.jourdan@chase.com.
It makes a lot of sense , people keep blaming the economy for their mistakes
