    Why Are You So Damn Negative?? The Glass Doesn’t Have To Be Empty!!

    Well, it’s been a minute guys, and I definitely missed you!! Welcome to my very first podcast episode of the service without excuses series of 2024 where I do a deep dive into a little bit of pessimistic thought process.  Many years ago I was told by a yellow pages salesman (if your over 40) the you understand lol what the hell I am actually talking about. He asked me a quick question about how busy I was at the time, being, I just started the business, and spent a small fortune much more than I could afford on these yellow page print ads that it was extremely slow, and it was very frustrating. Even though the last thing I wanted to hear was give it time as I was going broke, but the advice he gave me was mind blowing. He said I don’t care if you have no work on the books, never tell a client or customer that you’re slow as they don’t want to deal with people that are busy. No matter what always be seen as busy and needed and your book and convert many of your jobs. He spoke the ultimate truth, and from that day on, I was never available same day, even though I had nothing going on to give the client the impression that I was needed and wanted by other customers. I even talk about, my life-changing experience when it came to medical issues and needing to see doctors that weren’t available for months at a time. When I think about if the doctor says I can see you tomorrow either it’s very bad, or they most likely are, and I don’t want them giving me medical advice. It’s always good to be a little bit of both optimistic, as well as pessimistic, but if it takes over your world, and all you see, is the dark and negative in things, it can, and will destroy everything around you. Not just your business life, but your personal life as well.. In this first podcast of 2024, I discuss some of the things I talk with my friends and followers on different social media sites as well as email questions I receive. This was something I saw over and over and felt it was good to discuss.

    Why Overcoming Objections Is Critical To Your Business

    One of the most critical things in any business is overcoming objections, when selling a product or service. Having a canned approach, or as I call it (Plastic) One size fits all way of selling you will come out as a loser in the end yes, having some minor success you may be OK upfront, but in the end the results will not be what you want them to be.  Selling a product or service is about how you and your client relate to one another, the more commonalities you have about things that will benefit him or her, the easier the transaction will go. How you relate to someone and how their body language reacts will become a template (or a data bank) for how you can and will overcome objections and have a significantly better time selling. In episode 113 of the Service Without Excuses Podcast we do a deep dive into the psychology of why and how it works it works including several examples on how to spot certain habits that will help you be successful. We again want to thank our sponsors at prodigypro.io for the continued support, I highly recommend you go and visit this website to learn how you can use the power of automation and marketing together to have a reliable and systemized approach to growing your business, all in one place.  Feel free to also go to go.Robmlyon.com and download our mini-course (5 Things Every Service Business Owner Needs To Know Now) with the downloadable workbook and another small bonus.

I often refer to clients with this, Where is your fence lying at?? If it’s half way down, that’s one thing but if it’s on the floor something has to be done quick 🏃‍♀️ 🏃‍♂️ In the podcast recording I did today, I took a small clip just dealing with DM or direct mail Ps, I go into the other 2 examples as well on the full 14 Min episode!!

    “Isn’t it time Good Things Come To You For A Change” with Heather Havenwood!!

    We always seem to have to chase to purchase items, products, or services but with companies like Amazon and others that have become a staple of our purchasing decisions, having things delivered right to us. It seems like a real pain to have to go down the rabbit hole constantly, but there are many great solutions out there to cut down on the pain. If you ever visit a power plant  (which most likely you never will) there are a lot of features on the wall that operate their system. Even though that’s extremely important, at the end of the day all we care about what the electricity produces and the fact that we are most likely saving money if it’s being done efficiently. Even though as business owners (we like to think were the head of the business) and  we might be the brains we still need an automated system to run it, our operational system or CRM program is vital to not only your sanity but the growth of your company and its ability to scale. In this podcast, I talk with industry expert Heather Havenwood about a true solution of bringing it back to your plate. What I mean by that is having a CRM system designed around your needs with the support to match. If you’re anything like me, you need it to do the functions of your business with room for growth, not some over bearing and over redundant headache!! Heather Ann Havenwood, Award Winning Media Mogul, Top Direct Response Business Marketer,  Author of the top selling book: SEXY BOSS™: How Female Empowerment is Changing the Rulebook in Business, Author of  Power Guesting: How to Get Leads and Grow Your Business Online with Podcasts.  She was recognized by The Stevie Awards as 'The Most Innovative Woman of the Year - in Social Media for 2020', named 'Top Media Mogul 2020' by the Woman of Achievement Association for her work with women.  From making her first dollar online back in 2001; Heather Ann is now on a life legacy Mission: To Help 1,000,000 people to Start, Launch and Grow a successful knowledge based business online.  She whole heartily believes that every person is an Influencer and a Leader, and it is time for their VOICE to be UnCAGED, to be heard, to Shine and to EARN Six-Figures and beyond!  Find out more about her at Heatherhavenwood.com today Ty again to our sponsor So Tell Us at Sotellus.com/RobLyon for the worlds greatest review management software!!

    This Weeks Q&A for January 23, 2023. We talked to three different people about three different issues affecting their business.  Question number one comes in from Jim about how often should I market my service business, question number two comes from Bobby and he asked about a maintenance schedule and how often she regular maintenance be done on your service trucks question number three came from Alan we talked about a top level employee that has some issues and has had three right ups in the past. Her question is how long should I put up with this or when should I cut the cord. As always, we want to thank her guess for writing down questions and sending them to us so we may answer them in a timely manner. We have changed the format of this that, instead of live, we will usually record this separately with a question sent to us letting them know we will be going over it. The production quality is much better and we can actually use it as an audio recording for people to learn from as well versus alive that can go on a bunch of different directions.  We still do plan to do live shows I will do them less periodically, focusing heavily on the Content, specifically helping each other  For more information and a ton of extra content to help you build your business go to Robmlyon.com today , We will even send you our mini course a $57 value free of charge just for signing up with absolutely no strings attached!

    I Can't Believe It, I’ve Been RIPPED OFF!!

    I can’t Believe It, I’ve been Ripped Off I guess it happens to everyone, but this time really sent me back, I’ve seen some pretty crazy things that have happened to me in the past or companies or Bran even my client companies but this one really shocked me. It actually seemed almost blatant that we were blamed for doing something just about statistically impossible. We were blamed for not just ruining one door, but SIX I was personally shocked and horrified that somebody would be so blatant to blame us for something that literally could not have happened and hasn’t happened to anyone else that I know of, after nearly 30 years in the service industry, I have never seen something so obvious, but now we’ve entered a new era of prequalification. We have check lists And systems in place to cover us from the standpoint of cleaning, including pictures of the areas, but not of all the defects that were there prior to our arrival. We cleaned some tile and grout in stone and a clients house that we felt a little edgy about but still did it anyway only to have them not blame us for the cleaning job but we must’ve sucked their doors that were easily an inch or more off the floor.  While we do maintain a 100% moneyback guarantee on the quality of service this is not what we had in mind when we put into motion 4 1/2 years ago here and I’ve done it since 2005 with all of my companies. My question to you is if you run into something very similar to this and how do you handle it we make sure we’ve had we’ve had. Well, we do maintain a 100% moneyback guarantee on the quality of your service. This is not what we had in mind when we put it into motion 4 1/2 years ago here and I’ve done it since 2005 with all of my companies. My question to you is have you run into something very similar to this and how do you handle it? We’ve made sure we’ve had SOP’s in place to make it an easy process for both us and our clients, and now we are about to revamp that slightly. Do you have systems and procedures in place if or, when this does happen, my suggestion is most do not, and unprepared as I was even with all my years of large franchise experience. Make sure these become part of your future standard operating procedures because you never know.
