Persistence Pays Off

Had an exceptional experience last week and one that reinforces the notion that “persistence pays off”. I’ve been calling on this potential customer for almost two years now with no results other than performing a demo, on my initial visit, showcasing our process & products. The demonstration went extremely well, as usual, and upon witnessing the event the lot owner indicated to me that “we’ll be doing business”. Up until last week I’ve called on this person about 6-7 times with no movement or commitment on his part to allow me to aid him in enhancing his cars and ultimately selling his cars. I was traveling to this small Blue Ridge mountain town again, after a successful day aiding other clients, and an inspiration overcame me. The thought that “this man is going to do business with me today no matter what” washed over me like a breaking Lake Superior wave. My eternally positive attitude was enhanced and steeled and it changed the way I approached this man as he gave me not one but two vehicles to restore the lights on and they turned out looking like new. I believe what I experienced was divine intervention on a certain level.
