One of the great benefits in having mentors is the hope that comes with knowing someone has your best interest at heart.
Another great benefit is knowing that you are learning things that you can pass along to help others.
In today’s article, I’d like to pass along some tips from one of my mentors Daymond John … You may know him as the People’s Shark and he may be someone you are already following, but if not, I can personally attest to the information coming from him, being a valuable resource.
Like many successful business owners, while he is constantly selling, he is also freely giving away useful advice and tools to help upcoming entrepreneurs accomplish their goals.
Recently, I received a free infographic from Daymond that brilliantly and briefly lays out How-to for five essential actions in business:
- Make a Strong First Impression
- Master a 30-Second Pitch
- Obtain Vital Contact Information for Your Database
- Ease Your Anxiety and
- Keep a Conversation Going (Follow up)
Admittedly, you’ve probably seen some if these tips in the past, but this infographic is structured in a great way to be easily understood and adapted to help all categories, B2B, B2C, and even nonprofits reach their goals.
So just follow this link to the infographic and the best of success to you, in all of your endeavors.
Your Database is your most valuable asset.
