Out of my comfort zone

I think I need to get out of my comfort zone. I'm talking about my business. I sell houses and being in the real estate business is tough right now. I have noticed my business slow to almost a complete stop. Because of that I need to start doing things to get business that I didn't do before. For example, I think I need to start cold calling people and start knocking on doors. I never really did it before because I didn't really need to. Business was just there. Not a ton of business but enough. The thing is for some reason the idea of cold calling doesn't make me feel good but I know sometimes I'll have to do things that I really don't want to do in order to get ahead. This is just one of them.

    It's always hard to make such a change and get out of your comfort zone. The hardest part is the first step, after that everything starts turning out for the best.

    It's always interesting to discover new ways of business, don't be afraid by that. You'll get comfortable with knocking on doors ;)

    the worst they can do is say "no"
    unless they own a rottwieler, that is.

    Good for you for realizing this instead of someone telling you. It says a lot when a person can figure out their faults and figure a resolution.

    Trying new outlets in business can always seem strange or risky but like they say, "fortune sides with him who dares." Go get 'em!
