An ASM at one of my locations, came to me asking what she needs to work on. I went to the store and e talked about the state of the location. While I was there talking about the state of the location, she asked me to run down her personal numbers. The ASM wanted honest feedback about her performance. This was just insane to me. The reason this is so crazy to me is because she is already doing so great in everything else. People who are doing great, always are seeking ways to improve. And this ASM was the perfect example. To be the greatest, you must have some form of humility. This is something even I started to get away from. When I was first a rep, I was a sponge to whatever was taught to me. And I went away from this at some point. But now that I’m getting some guidance from my boss, I’m back to being a sponge. But as the quote says, you can’t just seek feedback. You must instantly apply it. The faster you apply the info, the quicker you can make mistakes. And like they do on “Meet The Robinson,” you should celebrate these mistakes. You learned another way it doesn’t work. This in turn will help you grow exponentially. I have 2 sales reps at one of my locations who started at the same time. One rep is always doing the computer work and studying. The other rep is always working alone and applying the information. The one who is always working alone, is miles ahead of the second rep. Why? Because he has the experience. So if you’re thinking about how to become better, do it and do it now.
