Mauro Libi: How does one become successful?

How does one become successful? We have spoken in depth that the answer lies in become an extraordinary person and company. Be and produce the very best in your field. To be the very best and truly successful, one must learn time management.

 Imagine a car manufacturer telling the public that the new model cars will not be ready on time, so we will sell the old models this year. It may sound funny to us, but to that poor car manufacturer it would probably mean their demise. It is not acceptable. Successful people complete their tasks on time. 

Time management is a skill that can be learned. Here are some pointers. Schedule your staff meetings in the morning. It's hard during the day when your managers and staff may have client meetings, phone calls, tasks that they are middle of. They may be stuck at a different locations. During the day or at the end of the day, a staff meeting is not predictable that you can get all the staff to attend. It can really interfere with other tasks. Another reason to have staff meetings in the morning is that everyone's mind is fresh and unoccupied. This is the time of day when ideas can flow freely and the meeting will produce better results.  

Schedule blocks of time to answer calls and to get back to calls or to make your calls.  Trying to complete a task while constantly answering the phone is to much of an interference. We already spoke that one should concentrate on one task at a time and not multi-task. Multi-tasking can not allow you to be the best that you can be. Concentrate on your task at hand. Do it right. The call itself needs proper attention and should not be handled while doing other tasks. If you want the call to lead to further success, respect it and allow it it's own time. 

Client time is sacred. There should be no interferences of any sort. You want your clients to love you, to become a raving fan, that refers other clients? Then make sure to give them your full attention and time.  One more thing about calls - would you appreciate your salesperson taking a call while talking to you? Seriously! 

When a task is started, make sure the time to compete it is reasonable. Allow yourself the proper time to receive products or supplies that you may need.  Think about things that can possibly need extra time. Not allowing yourself enough time to complete a task will greatly increase your anxiety and stress level and leave you with an upset client. Never promise an unreasonable completion time just to get the sale. 

Time management is a great tool used by successful people. Done properly your day will flow and run smoothly. It will make your tasks more enjoyable and productive and leave you with very satisfied customers.

Mauro Libi Crestani: Change initiatives are not just whole scale business transformations

By  Mauro Libi Crestani.  Business hire management teams to figure out new ways to solve customer problems, improve products, create new revenue streams, and reduce costs. This involves creating new ideas for change. Technology, innovation, products and the way of doing business means coming up with new ideas for staying competitive in today’s quick moving market. Every change starts with an idea—a vision of what could happen to create a tangible benefit for an organization. But ideas are not enough.

Mauro Libi Crestani: Negative attitude can destroy your career and personal life

I once went into a car dealership for a car purchase. I was meet by a salesman who was dressed in a well ironed suit and he had the biggest smile. He introduced himself by name and he asked for my name. He offered me something to drink as we discussed my desires in a car.  Let me assure you, that you came to the right place. He had been with that dealership for years. His customers stayed with him each time they wanted a new car.  I was told that this car dealership was about positive attitude. The salespeople , the finance  department , the service department all had to be positive that their customers were treated with the best service and that all their needs and concerns were listened to and acted on. I felt so positive that this was the place for me.  I have a married friend  who in sales. He is always depressed and always quiet.

How does technology help in business communication?

One of the elements which has undoubtedly worked to support our growth, expansion and excellence projects in the last years, has been technology applied to business communication. I still remember when everything was reduced to memos, billboards, advertisements, photos and one or another printed publication in order to communicate inside the company; at the same time absolutely massive Advertising in existing media was in charge to go to the great public which included our customers and prospects.  Today we can say that with the advance of humankind, communication needed is also appearing. And our times make use of digital communication to improve business processes with more efficient and functional ways which allow more interaction, and overall, business productivity. Technology in communication expressed in the use of Internet, and with it, the Web, social networks, e-mails, multimedia resources (videos, infographics, memes, podcast, live broadcast, etc.); joined wi
