Strategic Marketing & BD Tip 8/31/2026

 (Cursor down to read all 5 business topics)

The word strategy is used often in business development. Unfortunately, leaders too often miss the real purpose of one. Business owners tend to hear a quick idea for a strategy and accept it too quickly. It is critical to realize the simple purpose of a strategy. It is intended to be an approach to all your decisions to increase your odds of achieving your goals. It’s not a rigid rule. Consider a strategy like a carefully selected coach (emphasis on carefully) that keeps you on a consistent path. Think about it. ©Viscon Services

Management & Leadership Tip 9/1/2026

Leadership decisions involve an interesting combination of two components. First are the decisions themselves. Almost all owners and managers communicate the decisions quite clearly to their teams. Unfortunately, they too seldom communicate the reasons behind them. They take the ‘need to know’ approach with subordinates. Sometimes that is the best way. But other times, it can be costly holding back from sharing the rationales supporting the choices Actions can move much quicker when your people know both aspects. Think about it. ©Viscon Services

Recruiting and Hiring Tip 9/2/2026

A simple but often overlooked part of interviewing is what is not said. Candidates understandably and predictably say just what they think the interviewer wants to hear. The solution starts with the resumes. The most important issues of an interview are the items NOT on the resumes. Resumes only tell selective information. To learn more about candidates, be a better interviewer and ask about things ‘between the lines' of a resume. Why did they make certain decisions? What job did they like the most and why? And so on. Think about it. ©Viscon Services

Customer Relationship Management (CRM) Tip 9/3/2026

Customer Relationship Management (CRM) in business has taken on a whole new meaning in the current markets. Where it used to mean just servicing your existing customers, it now takes in much more. It becomes more under the umbrella of business development, quality assurance in service, sales growth, and even project management.  For companies wanting to improve and/or grow, it would be smart to look further into your own CRM directives.  Think about it. ©Viscon Services

Sales & Selling Tip 9/4/2026

Sales cover several stages. Salespeople must know and work with customers through those segments in sequence. It’s a buildup process. If customers fail to confirm agreement at any one stage, they mentally stop moving forward in that sequence and the salesperson doesn’t even know it. You’ve left the customer metaphorically behind. You’ve likely just lost the sale. Think about it. ©Viscon Services
