Weekly Alluviance #39: The Tragedy of the Salesperson: Ignoring the Best ROI
YOUR WEEKLY DOSE OF ALLUVIANCE!
Ever felt like there's a goldmine you're not tapping into? One that could revolutionize not just your career, but your entire life?
Here's the truth: You are not investing enough in the most lucrative venture available to you.
Yes, salespeople, renowned for their spending prowess, are ironically dropping the ball where it counts the most. And I'm not exempt – I've been there, done that.
Now, here's the kicker: There's a staggering 5.7x return* waiting for you. Imagine putting a dollar into a machine and getting $5.70 back – repeatedly. Sounds like a dream, right? But it's not some far-fetched stock market promise; it's a conservative average in the world of professional coaching.
You. Yes, YOU, are your best investment. Your potential, your growth, your success – it all hinges on how much you're willing to pour into your own bucket. And if you're the kind of person who always pushes beyond the average (I believe you are), then you could surpass that 5.7x return.
Yet, the glaring irony is that despite the undeniable benefits and the clear evidence, many salespeople tragically underspend on their most precious asset: themselves. The repercussions aren't just in missed commissions or deals, but in their well-being, their happiness, and the opportunities that pass right on by.
I ask you to consider: Are you truly investing enough in your personal growth? If you're hesitating, what's holding you back?

This week I invite you to objectively consider if you are spending enough on your own growth and development. For so many reasons, I want you to choose yourself and recognize that you are your best investment.
