While it is true that The Holidays can lead to slower business decision making. Is this absolutely true? It will be true for you as long as you foster this belief. What if you allowed yourself to be wrong about this? Consider these facts.
Fact #1: Business execs are looking for excuses to get out of the office during the holiday season. Pick up that phone and invite someone to lunch!
Fact #2: Business execs will not show up at every industry networking event, but the odds of seeing them at the holiday festivities increase exponentially. Be sure to seek out all of the new faces at the party!
Fact #3: Business execs sometimes have budget money to burn before the end of the calendar year. Now is the perfect time to talk about people development and process improvement!
Fact #4: Because so many others of the sales persuasion believe that “no one does business over the holidays,” YOU will stand out. Stay focused on your business instead of getting caught up in the holiday bustle.
Fact #5: Most top execs are, by nature, not procrastinators. Their decisiveness and drive is what got them to the top. They are very capable of making quick decisions when their mission critical needs are served.
Don’t let those limiting beliefs about doing business over the holidays get you down … get out there and make something happen!
