The Importance of Sales Journal For Business Success | Sales Management Skills Training
There are a number of outstanding reasons to keep a sales journal. Let’s name a few of them. They are easy to write in, don’t take up lots of space, and are a great way to stimulate your thoughts and help you remember important sales experiences and events. A sales journal can also:
Help you avoid drastic errors in sales judgment
Increase your sales effectiveness
Improve your income
Help you learn from your sales failures
Improve your customer service relationships
Help you achieve your sales goals
Keep you headed in the right direction
Improve your lifestyle
Help you learn from others
Help you find peace and happiness
Save you time and energy
Help you have more fun
Capture valuable memories
If all that isn’t enough to get you to consider starting and keeping a personal success journal, I don’t know what will. I can only tell you from personal experience that keeping a record of my insights, thoughts, ideas, successes, mistakes, errors, achievements, and failures, and their causes has done more for my sales career than any other single activity.
What have you got to lose? It takes less than ten minutes a day to capture all of those important little day-by-day events, feelings, activities, and their consequences that, when revisited on a regular basis, can have a galvanizing impact on your sales career, customers relationships, and work life.
Turn It Around
Start and keep a journal for your career sales success.
