Sales Tweet #34 When you're late hand the Client $100, to be spent on staff. "A donation to remove your bad habit."

 

First: since tweets have to be so darn concise I didn’t insert the words “$100 of your own money”. But, that’s what I meant. Why would I suggest you give your Client $100 of your own money and tell your Client to spend it on co-workers/staff? 2 reasons: (1) hopefully, that personal $100 consequence would make sure you are rarely, if ever, late for meetings and (2) at least your Client will understand you place a value on his/her time. [You can always say something like: I know you are worth more than this $100 but I am not rich…however, I may be rich some day if I can lick this late-for-meetings problem.]
