Horse lovers fight BLM plan to cull wild herd
Jean Anderson, a 59-year-old janitor from Dairyville in Tehama County, says wild horses are smart and beautiful animals, symbols of the freedom and strength it took to build the United States.

logical step for IT sales.

For most nice-sized opportunities in a small business, it pays to spend an hour or so learning about their needs and giving away some limited free advice. But to get IT sales, be very prepared to cap it and shift that discussion toward hiring your firm for an initial IT audit or technology assessment. It’s very important to move from free to fee,

"Free" Will Make You Poor

If you stay free forever, you will not develop the profit and at some point you have to draw the line. There are small businesses that will keep you coming back over and over again and picking your brains and sapping your energy and will never result in IT sales.

Know What Service You Want to Sell Them

So, stop giving away the store. Size up your client’s immediate needs and hot buttons ahead of the IT call. Start thinking about how you’re going to be a solution for that. And be prepared to sell some kind of concrete, fixed cost half-day IT audit for a couple hundred dollars.

If you sense a larger opportunity, say $50,000 or $100,000 in pure services, not a product sale where there’s going to be margins on it, but a real, pure IT services opportunity, you can certainly afford to risk giving away more than an hour, but you’ve got to know what the cards look like before you even walk in the door.
