Is there anything sweeter than summer? The sun’s shining, the birds are chirping, and event planners have more options at their disposal than arguably any other season. After all, there’s the heightened possibility of holding events outdoors, a heaping helping of rich, colorful palettes to play with, and endless summer event themes that promise to surprise and delight attendees.

Not Knowing What You Want : Your success is not my success , nor mine yours. The way you measure success needs to be based on what it is you want from your life. You cannot find success unless you know what it is you want. So, what do you want? Not Having Goals : You can never hit a target you cannot see. Without goals , you will drift, allowing life to shift you this way and that.

Earlier this year, we started a little Social Tables tradition we like to call Friday Finds. The idea? End every week with a bit of knowledge about this crazy, compelling industry that we all know and love. Each week, we email a short survey to a mix of over 23,000 planners, venues, and hotels. And with each survey and stat, we learn a little bit more about how all of us can come together to create better face-to-face events.

Deals tend to have an expiration date. Some are durable over long periods, and others are somewhat fragile, with the slightest neglect or stall , causing them to disintegrate before your very eyes. While healthy deals tend to come with activity and energy, deals can also be weak and sickly, lacking energy and acting and failing to thrive. Eventually, some deals die.

From time to time, I take note of what I am seeing and write it down. I tend to look for the themes, trends, and patterns that either improve or harm sales. The following is what I see causing sales results to suffer. Not Controlling the Process : If I could recommend only one thing that would improve your effectiveness, it would be that you learn to effectively control the process, managing the sales conversations, recommend next steps, and helping your dream clients make change.

I have asked this question here before, multiple times, and in multiple ways: If one were to watch a video of how you spent your time over, say, the last week, would they immediately recognize your goals? After watching the video, what would they believe is important to you from looking at the objective evidence of the physical actions you take throughout the day?

Whatever is your most important outcome, do the work required until completion, or until you have made enough progress to reach a natural breaking point—and enough progress to stay on course. If you don’t start with the most important outcome, distractions and interruptions will encroach on your time, making it less likely you do meaningful work or enough of it to make a difference.

You call your dream client to ask them for a meeting. After you pitch them on the value of a meeting, they say: “Can you email me some information?” You tell them you can’t send anything, rejecting their very first request, and ensuring they feel it is more important that you get what you want than helping them get what they want. Emailing information and having a meeting are not mutually exclusive, and as much as your dream client wants the information without the meeting, you can say, “Yes.

If you have to choose between being overconfident in your abilities or lacking confidence, it’s better to be overconfident. If you lack confidence , then you will not try. You will have already failed in your mind, and by picturing failing in your mind, you will give up before you have even tried before you have even started. It isn’t polite to suggest that one be overconfident.
