Two personality traits that all entrepreneurs need to have is a sense of self-discipline and the ability to be tenacious. Too much, like anything, can of course lead to problems and sometimes it can be difficult to decide if the actions you plan to take will come across in an abrasive way.  For example: A period of time has passed since you sent that query out and you have not received a reply - and now your mind is reeling with wondering thoughts like: • Did it arrive? • Perhaps your message got lost in a spam or junk folder. • Maybe they have had too many messages and haven't had a chance to respond. • It could be they saw it and meant to reply, but then forgot about it. The next question that will pop us is whether you should reach out yet. The answer is: "Yes, it is ok to be tenacious - but do so respectfully".  Be sure to check the list below before reaching out: • Scan email and message centres, texts and chats for any communications from them.

No Way No, there will nev...

This article series was partly inspired by Martha Tucker's Urban Gems online event, where I was her speaker presenting several steps that will lead to a successful business.  I am going to give you some homework assignments - several tasks that will broaden how you view yourself, your partners and suppliers and also your staff. After completing these tasks you'll have enough information providing numerous, interesting angles that will get you the media coverage, build networking circles and attain the market authority and brand recognition that you desire.  You see, we want to change the standard mindset that is too often employed: "I'm an author/entrepreneur. I want you to buy my book/product or help me sell books/services. What will you do for me?
