I am a pretty big hockey fan. From days of yester year I can remember long Sunday afternoons during the winter time where friends and I would get together to play. It didn't matter if it was ice hockey or street hockey (roller hockey did not exist at the time). We loved to play the game. We would all throw our sticks into the middle, mix them up and then someone would just randomly make up teams by taking a stick from the middle and tossing it to one side then the other.
The other night while watching the Stanley Cup finals I was really getting into it. One team was dominating while the other seemed all but surely to lose. Yet, the team on their heels prevailed and won the game. What made me really excited about the game was not the fact of who won or lost but the amazing action going from end to end.
This level of excitement made me think about my own business and what we have to offer and of course the changes that are in the pipeline to make our website even better. Like I do for hockey, I truly have a passion for what we offer now and what we will be offering in the future. Do you have that same passion in your business?
From the research I conducted and other successful business owners that I have talked to, one thing remains constant. That common denominator is not the fact that they had tons of experience in what they do, as most do not, but that they had a passion for what they do.
You can see the excitement in their faces and hear the enthusiasm in their voices any time they talk about the company they own and the products they sell. Because they have such excitement and enthusiasm you get the sense that they would go to the ends of the earth for you so that the products they sell to you would make you just as happy as they are.
Whatever it is you do, whether it is selling products or providing a service, you need to give off that outward bound sense of joy and happiness as mentioned above. When people see how excited you are about what you are offering, it draws them to want to do business with you. Chances are if they are happy doing business with you, then the people they tell will also be happy.
I am sure you have seen it before. You go into a store or call a business on the phone and it looks and sounds as if they would rather be sleeping in bed then helping you in regards to information about what they sell or provide. Do not be that type of business.
If what you are doing right now does not get you excited, find something that does. Develop that into a business and get moving. A wise person once said, "Do what you love and success will follow." That could not be truer.
