Maximizing your Holiday Potential

While the holidays can be wonderful, they can also be stressful. Parties, shopping and the changes in our every-day routines are just a few things that can tip the stress scale. Below are a few techniques to maximize your holiday potential:

1. Network EVERYWHERE - As small business owners, we are always networking. Be open to opportunities to share about your business services and be creative in your approach. Remember, it's your uniqueness that sells more than the product/service itself. For example, say you own a day spa and are shopping at Macy's. The line is really long and people are getting cranky. What better time to offer a holiday special to the people in line and give out your card with a special discount?

2. Take care of YOU - While it is the season for giving, remember to give to yourself. Take time to get back into balance if you need to. Take time to nurture your mind, body and spirit. Our ability to give to others is reflective of our ability to give to ourselves.

3. Keep it SIMPLE - A challenge for many, including myself during this time of the year. How do we keep it simple? Here are a few suggestions:
a. Know and respect your limits.
b. Prioritize your events.
c. Say "no thank you " when you need to.

4. Give THANKS - Take time to remember the people who inspired you or believed in you this year. Who helped you grow? Helped your business grow? Took a chance with you and your business?

Thank you all for being a part of my entrepreneurial journey. I wish you and your families a happy and prosperous New Year!

What Others Are Saying
About This Book:

"No matter how successful you were in corporate America , you know nothing about becoming an entrepreneur. I know because I was the President/CEO of four companies before I became an entrepreneur. I could have used this book."

Sigmund Goodwin
Vice-President
The Radcliff Company

"How I wished that I had had this precious and practical tool to help me in my escape from Corporate America! After 15 years in "Fortune 50" Corporations I was convinced that the "crossing" was not possible. Practical advice such as "what to do until the money flows" would have greatly eased the transition for me. Negative corporate management's reinforcement about the "big bad world" and not realizing that it didn't have to be an all or nothing transition delayed my ultimately successful escape by years. This book will be an entrepreneurial bible."

Angela Love, M.S., Professional Coach, Angela Love and Associates, Inc.
