Why Follow the Herd, When You Can Be a Leader in Your Field?

Tess Anderson, Press Release Expert / Editor / Ad-copy© August2012

These thoughts have been on my mind of late and I wanted to share. Actually I notice that everyone of my contacts are in to make money online. Have they ever considered what talent lie within them and they don't need matirices, mlm, hyip and other things the herd follow?
What talent do you bring to the table?


Have they ever accessed themselves of their worth to someone else with what they have learned and ever branded themself. I believe everyone is missing the boat that follow someone else to make money and not use themselves as their own boss. This is where leaders are born.

I get very upset, when a program or business goes down. Not only the money lost, but time put in. I figured out how much I am worth as a consultant. In any large business it goes into six figures. Why am I letting these other businesses make money off me, when I can do what I do, to help people; as the consultant I am?
Hang Out your Shingle for your Consultant Services


So how do we get clients? We start with one client and do that job. One foot in front of the other. Getting out there is half the battle. Someone will notice what you do and need you. It takes time to build a clientele.
Get your first client, go from there and build your portfolio



Wean yourself off slowly, of the other things you're following. I suggest as you start to get clients. You don't need anyone but YOU. It takes a leap of faith. You CAN do IT. Leaders are born every day. You can be one, too

Having Fun with AT&T


Having fun with AT&T.  Hmmm.  I live in a rural area with which there is no competition thanks to the County contracts.  I’ve been on the phone for many hours in a day during the week in hopes of getting a simple solution to resolve a simple problem.  In my experience , every time I have called ATT and listened to the virtual assistant answering all their questions I have been routed to numbers of departments, seems as many  as Carter has pills.

 

Firstly, I find it an abomination that a virtual assistant in the largest communications company in the world cannot have a live person answer the phone when a client calls.  This is this biggest farce of all.  It should be an embarrassment to them to put people through what they do as they wouldn’t have it for themselves.

 

Then I think the representatives have fun with the clients by routing them to departments that have nothing to do with their issues on purpose only to get department after department in a wild goose chase for hours on end.  Our time means nothing to them.

 

Then the outlandish bills inflated every month.  Who hears the cries of the poor people that have to deal with them every month?  For days on end I have been on the phone with representative after the other. Some sound full of apathy others are downright mean.  I have never seen such mean spirited people.  Hard headed yes and if they hear what you said you’re fortunate to not have to go blue in the face explaining to them over and over what the point of your call is about.  Now they really never ever hear you. 

 

I guess there is no way out of this jam with AT&T.  We have to live with them or live without them.  Really they need us we don’t need them they need us.  If I had my way I’d just put two can held together by a string and live with it.  As far, as internet goes we went without much more than this and why do we need all then poppycock then internet gives us. 

 

Ohh, AND let’s not forget that the agents can disconnect your call with them at any time as well.  They seem to love to aggravate the living daylights out of anyone…  I’ve never seen anything as annoying and piss poor in customer service as these people are.  Next.
