One of the first things you learn in sales training
is the distinction between a feature and a benefit.
A feature is a virtue of the product or idea.
A benefit is how it helps you; what the customer gains by using the product or idea.
Its the "what's in it for me" part.
You can spend a whole day
bouncing between features and benefits
but the "A Ha!" moment
comes when you have the conviction and belief
that what you are doing is right
and it is worth having others do it, too.
Whether it is buying versus renting
driving an electric car vs. a gas powered vehicle
Nothing happens
until you move from
Feature to Benefit To Belief.
This daily journal came from a promise. Right before Memorial Day 2009, I met with my business coach Joe Stumpf. I shared with him my total burn out in my business of 20 years. Frustrated by what my life had become, I promised to get up at 5:00 AM every day, meditate and journal and focus on bringing passion back into every aspect of my life, my work, my family and my personal growth. Instead of going to work every day and having a PITY PARTY, I have decided to have a PASSION PARTY.
