Little did she know, everything in her life was about to change - for the better.</p> <p>Even though Alicia has endured a multitude of chronic illnesses since, she's learned and gained so much.</p> <p>Alicia and I talked about how she had to learn how to slow down and take care of herself. She knew if she didn't, someone else would have to do it for her. She didn't want to place that burden on anyone else. </p> <p>Alicia learned to ask a vital question of her body whenever she faced a decision, "What do you want me to know?” The body is incapable of lying.</p> <p>This helped Alicia go from living life on autopilot, to living from her true authentic self. She encourages her clients to also slow down and listen within. This is one of the best gifts you can give to yourself when faced with tough choices or important decisions about anything and everything.</p> <p>Alicia Morrow is a Master Coach. Gifted Intuitive.

<p>Sybil Stershic is a believer in internal marketing to engage employees and customers as explained in her quote: “The way your employees feel is the way your customers will feel. And if your employees don’t feel valued, neither will your customers.” Employees need to be considered "internal" customers who deserve as much attention as actual "external" customers.</p> <p>She has a point. During our conversation, Sybil spoke to me about the earlier years of her career when she watched her employer wait until the last moment to let co-workers know about new initiatives. It never made sense to her why the people who needed to know the most were told the least and often last. She considered it a lack of respect for employees.</p> <p>This led Sybil to start Quality Service Marketing, an internal marketing company she has owned for 35 years. As her business evolved, a connection framework to address this problem emerged.</p> <ul> <li>Connect employees to the organization - to know where they fit in and what's expected of them.</li> <li>Connect employees to the customer - the more they know about their customers, the better they can take care of them.</li> <li>Connect employees to other employees - to better understand how their work is interrelated and how together they impact the bottom line.</li> </ul> <p>Simple to grasp. Easy to overlook.</p> <p>Sybil Stershic’s Web-Site: <a href="http://www.qualityservicemarketing.com/">http://www.qualityservicemarketing.com</a></p> <p>Sybil Stershic’s LinkedIn Page: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/sybilstershic">https://www.linkedin.com/in/sybilstershic</a></p> <p>Deborah Brown-Volkman’s web-site: <a href="https://www.surpassyourdreams.com/">https://www.SurpassYourDreams.com</a></p>

<p>“I can’t do this job.” Adrian was a mom with 2 young children who needed flexibility at a time when there was no work from home. So, she started a business. She knew she was good at sales. 34 years later, the rest is history.</p> <p>Adrian is a believer in building relationships. In the beginning of her career, she had people call her to “check-in.” She didn’t know what they meant. Thus, she didn’t know what to say. Those conversations were awkward.</p> <p>She said to herself: there has to be a better way to interact with people. Thus, a formula was born: The 3 I’s.</p> <p>The first I: Introductions. Take the time to introduce people with similar synergies to each other. You don’t know where it will end up, but the introduction will be appreciated.</p> <p>The second I: Invitations. We all get invited to something. Spread the word and invite someone else who you think would also be interested.</p> <p>The third I: Information. Did a web-site link or newsletter grab your attention? Send it to someone who you think could benefit.</p> <p>My interview with Adrian was interesting. Her approach is high touch with low pressure. When you listen, you will learn ways to build relationships that you don’t usually hear of. Or, think of.</p> <p>Adrian Miller is the President of Adrian Miller Sales Training, a sales training and consulting agency with a very simple goal, to help you accomplish, exceed, and then blow-away your sales objectives.
