PGD Goes to Athens with UEIL
What took us to Athens this October?
We talk often about finding the “right room”.
That room is a room that is full of the people you want to do business with.
That room is full of businesses that you know you can uniquely help, serve and add value to.

It’s a room that needs help identifying where to start
It’s a room where when given the opportunity to talk and share – the magic happens.

Those people that you’re fearful to click on a link when their 20-second video appears on your screen promising you the wealth you aspire to or, the free download to the 7-step process to freedom that you covet.
Knowing that if you enter their ecosystem you’ll enter a constant flow of automated emails because there’s a conference seat to sell and you just have to attend to gain your financial freedom.

Exploiting Alignment to Win More Sales
Exploiting organisational alignment is the difference between good businesses and great ones.
Great businesses know the results it brings and deliberately goes after it.
They know the behaviours they want to see and invest the resource they need to make it happen.
From top to bottom alignment through all departments, being highly visible, appreciable, and palpable.
Some organisations think it too difficult and perhaps even consider that’s all’s well…I suggest you read on.
