To those of you with kids, happy back to school! I’ve seen a ton of back to school pictures on Facebook. All those smiling faces, inspired and ready to go. Makes me almost miss school….almost.
With the kids back in school now is a great time to take a look at your business. You may not know it, but we offer a complimentary Success Session where we’ll talk about your specific business to see what you need to do get your business running without you. Shoot a quick email to Laura@processprodigy.com and she’ll book a time for the two of you to talk one-on-one.
Speaking of getting your business to run without you, you may or may not know that I’m getting married in November. I’ve been working to make sure my team can run things while I’m away for a month. Clients always tell me how they are looking for things they can do to be able to walk away from the business.
I’m excited to let you know that we are planning a very special webinar and new program around how you can have things run…and run smoothly without you. Keep your eyes peeled for the big announcement. In the mean time, here’s a hint in at what it takes to be able to have this kind of freedom. This week's article gives you a simple and fun way to keep your team inspired.
Enjoy,
Beth
Ready for more fun in your business? Here’s some of our very serious team members: Senior Consultant Jami McKinney, VP of Business Development Laura Bullard and CEO Beth Schneider having a great time at a conference last week. Who says you can’t have fun while doing the work you love?
If you aren’t “feeling the love” the way you used to, we’re happy to talk with you to see where there might be some holes in your business. Just email Laura at Laura@processprodigy.com or 888-584-5452 ex 707 and ask for your complimentary success session. She’ll talk to you about the four key areas of your business and it will quickly become clear where there might be some breakdowns that are holding you back from the money you want to make and the fun you want to have.
Yay Mike!!!
By Sandye Linnetz, Process Prodigy Systems Coach
My grandson, Max, is 6 months old. Everyone who's met him calls him the "crowd pleaser" because he makes people smile wherever he goes. He's such a remarkably happy, smiley little guy - spreading good cheer like a warm knife spreads butter. We love that he does that and we want him to keep that cheery disposition. We also want him to keep trying new things to become more independent - reaching, rolling and jumping... To help foster his high self-esteem and positive self-image, we give him lots of positive feedback... lots of clapping and "Yay, Max"!
In the Urban dictionary, "YAY" is defined as an exclamation of pleasure, approval, elation, or victory. Yup, yay is exactly what we want to say to a little fella who is doing something that we want him to do again.
It was my son, Mike - Max's uncle - who suggested that "Yay, Max" (complete with extended hand clap) might also be inspirational for the over 30 set! I walked into a restaurant (a very upscale restaurant) on time and my son, "Yay, Sandye"d - me to the delight of everyone within earshot. Yes, I was a little embarrassed, but, if truth be told, also quite delighted.
Two days later I taught a leadership seminar to top level executives and instituted the "Yay, and *clap*" with them. By the end of the meeting EVERYONE was doing it!
The general consensus was that, yes, it's a little silly and embarrassing, but, down deep it just feels doggone GOOD!! What a system! It's instant gratification that takes us back to the happiest times of our childhood... those wonderful times when people liked what we did and let us know! Try it. It works!
