SME far exceeds the public "Schools" in Manhasset. The environment for faith and studies is significantly better than Shelter Rock or Munsey Park. Its really not even close.
What more could one ask for? Simple, consistent and high state-wide ELA and math scores."
St. Mary's is an exceptional elementary school that combines strong academics and faith based learning in a safe, nurturing environment. The student to teacher ratio is 12-1 providing your child with a quality learning environment that you will not find in larger classroom settings. They have recently implemented an iPad curriculum for the 7th and 8th grades whereby every student has their own iPad. The jr. high athletic program is first rate. The boys' basketball team went undefeated this year and won their league championships and they have strong showings in soccer, volleyball, lacrosse, baseball, and softball. The school has an outstanding drama program and puts on a first rate production annually. The students at SMES are stewards of their faith and constantly taught to be good to one another thus creating an environment where all feel comfortable and thereby able to excel. What more could one ask for!?!
I need help. Looking to transfer my 11 yr old to SME. Please give me some positive feedback. I am not feeling good with all the negative reviews. Could some body change my heart with some good news.
In all toil there is profit, but mere talk tends only to poverty Proverbs 14:23. Morals are important but so is preparing our children for the real cold competitive world. Do your share as part of the community; let s help SME fully implement the NYS Common Core.
A wonderful school from both an academic and moral perspective. The teachers are nurturing, smart and caring. The academic bar is very high. A lot of people I speak to that have kids in the public school are surprised to hear what my kids are learning. The faith they instill in children is wonderful. Just a great environment. I couldn't be happier.
Students can choose what they want to do from their homework menu and decide whether to do their optional homework. Really? It's definitely not the Catholic School model I remember from my youth.
Despite the poor grammar of a previous review, I agree that SME is #1. On the religious side, there is no doubt that SME has no peers. On the academic side, we can examine actual data rather than debate in hyperboles. In the Manhasset Union Free School District, the pass rate for 4th grade in the NYS tests is 90% with 48% considered advanced which is a score of 4. Similarly, the pass rate for 8th grade in the MUFSD is 93% with 38% considered advanced. The data suggest that our community's public schools do a good job especially when you stack them against statewide results. Assuming that SME's scores are comparable to MUFSD's scores, the debate is over. . . SME wins convincingly with its combination of faith and academic teachings. Anyone know where we can get SME's test results?
SME is #1! I have researched the district from both sides. The academics, programs, families and Values. SME is a sm family orientated school. The Acedemics are exemplary, the after school progs have something for everyone from Legos, sports, reading groups, crafts, hw help & much more. They offer a safe monitored extended day prog for children of busy parents to 6pm. The volunteering opportunities are fun & fulfilling for both the parents & their children. The Principal & Staff are welcoming & appreciative to parent volunteers. The Principal & her staff are nurturing, kind, and dedicated everyday to our children. The majority of families are generous, helpful & inclusive. You get what you give. The Unique & most important element of St. Mary's is the Catholic values & guidance it gives our children 7 hrs a day. Morals, Values, Respect, Tolerance, Self Pride, Discipline & Work Ethics. In a community plagued with alcohol and prescription drug abuse, we should all be more mindful of what Really matters in Life. Providing our children with a Catholic Ed is a gift of lifetime strength. It is a financial sacrifice but our parents did it and they had much less. Long live SME!
Competent and striving for excellence instead of excellent striving for the extraordinary. When did we decide to set the bar so low for a school? A "C" is competent, a "B" is excellent and an "A" is extraordinary. I want our children to grow up to be more than just "competent."
This is a great school with a nurturing and competent staff. The principal and teachers strive for excellence. In response to a past review, it is important to understand that there are major differences between Catholic, private, and public schools. People send their kids to these institutions for different reasons. One of the main reasons families send their children to Catholic schools is to instill in them Christian values and incorporate them into their daily lives. During trying economic times it is understandable that families, especially those with multiple children, may choose to leave and use the local public schools. Those of us that make the decision to stay feel fortunate and blessed that our children can spend their formative years here. Also, I don't see an "outreach" to "recruit" chldren from areas "outside" (heaven forbid) the community. Catholic schools are open to anyone that can afford the tuition. There are no diocese or district restrictions. Diversity is one of the many advantages of SME. There is a whole world outside one tiny little zip code. Let your children experience it!
Publicly available data tell us that the number of students at St. Mary s Elementary school is 10% (or more) smaller than it was a mere two years ago. The school appears to be experiencing a net loss of students every year. It s expedient to blame the poor economy but I think there is more to this story. Manhasset is an uniquely affluent town and St. Mary s parish is among the wealthiest in the Diocese of Rockville Centre. Many students who left the school recently come from very rich homes and are opting for more costly private schools. So the poor economy does not seem to be the key factor. The shool is conducting active outreach to recuit kids from Queens and areas well outside of our community; Why is this needed? Queens is not even in our same Diocese and there are many fine schools there. I think it is high time for the parents and parishioners of St. Mary's to do a comprehensive evaluation of the school. SME is a gem in our community and in my heart but there appears to be something rotten here.
Despite last year's lip service regarding improving the math and science in the upper grades, very little has changed here in my opinion.
The school lacks a strong music and arts program -- we believe this is vital for the proper development of children. We know the budget is tight at St. Mary's but this is not the place to cut corners.
I wish St. Mary s would post (like other schools) how its students performed in the nationally-normed Iowa Test of Basic Skills and the NYS testing in mathematics, English language arts, science, and social studies. I think parents deserve to know how their school performed relative to NY, RVC and Manhasset public schools. If the school is truly accountable to its students and parish, these statistics should not sit only in the principal s office but widely shared. If the scores are good, let s celebrate (and enhance the school's low enrollment), if they are not, let s improve (before the school becomes irrelevant to the community). Hiding facts does no one any good!!
Yes. I agree with the last reviewer. It's so sad. The academic reputation at St. Mary High School deteriorated over the past few years and the elementary school is following suit.
It is a school of excellence that strives in every way to develop your child.
Moved to Manhasset for the public schools, changed over to St. Mary's and couldn't be happier. The small setting, catholic virtues and excellent curriculum, taught by terrific and dedicated teachers, make St. Mary's the number one choice for parents. The teachers are there from the early morning and stay late. The school is run by an outstanding principal and staff. Parents are always welcome and greeted with a smile. If you ever have a choice to make with a school, this school is undoubtedly the best on Long Island.
Fantastic school that challenges every student to succeed/excel. Nurturing environment. Moved my children here from public school in Manhasset and am more than happy - best move I ever made!!!
My kids have been at St. Mary's schools (preK-12)for almost ten years. It is the school with a heart. The teachers are accomplished, personable and professional and embody the (not only) Christian virtues of kindness and compassion, while encouraging the students towards excellence in their studies and in their lives. Mrs. McQuillan teaches art, Ms. Bean teaches music, Ms. Portugues teaches computers, Ms. Sharkey is the gym teacher whom every body loves, and Dr. Checchia is the beloved principal about whom there are not enough words to express what a terrific person she is. There is a lot of school spirit and the parents are very involved in every aspect of the school. They are very warm and welcoming. There are extensive extracurricular activities (sports, plays, band, chess, etc) and an afterschool program for working parents. Without being overly pious, they turn their Christian beliefs into action. Great School.

Hello fellas, i have a Ruger SR-22 and a Barska Scope mounted to it.
My problem is im using the Laserlyte bore laser to zero in my scope BUT it's almost as if the scope is mounted too high and the adjustment runs out before i can zero it in.
Is there anything i can do to take care of this? (i know this isn't a expensive scope but i like it so far)

ive got a similar bore sight laser and they relly dont work well. best method for getting sighted is with a properly mounted scope set the windage and elevation in the middle. to do this run the dial to one extreme and count the clicks to hit the other end divide in half and aet the dial to the middle. its tedious but it works. once you got that start at 10 yards on a big target to get on the paper.
if your not on take one shot with the aim point at an edge repeat for each edge. if still not on aim at each corner firing once and check for hits this will get you on paper so you can start adjusting. once your on paper within vertical 10 inches of aimpoint and centered for windage move ot to 25 repeat then 50 or whatever zero your needing.
with a rifle you can peer down the bore (bolt actio or ar15) you can just adjust the scope so it lines up roughly with the bore picture. hense he term bore-sighting. you really dont need lasers. using the bore laser i have i wasted 50 rounds of 44mag trying to get on paper with my ruger 44 carbine. after adopting the first method i was zeroed for 100 in 10 rounds.

The problem with being stupid is you cannot simply decide to stop doing dumb things...
Hate to tell you, but your main problem is most likely the scope. They are junk.
Get a quality scope, the lower power one's can be had for a decent price from a good manufacturer.
Want a great 4 X 14 X 40, get a Mueller APV scope. About $115.00
It's the best scope for a .22 in it's class. You would have to spend twice as much for a better scope.
Want a tac style Red Dot, get a Millet DMS-1 1 X 4 X 30 or a leatherwood, which is much the same.
Just don't buy junk, it's a waste of money.
The Mueller is not a Tactical looking scope, but has fantastic optics and is an AO scope which is what you want.
John K
Thanks guys. I ended up returning it and got a red dot...
...I'm returning that junk to. I'm thinking of getting some Troy Industries folding Tritium iron sights front/rear. Enough of the cheap stuff.
Even if you put optics on,back up sights are a must. ALWAYS be ready for that optic,what ever it may be that you get sometime down the road,crapping out just when you need it the most.
The rest of the world gets it,why can't we?
"The United States can survive a Barack Obama,who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president".
Out of the Czech Republic
Psalm 138:7
I don't think that's much of an issue with a .22. I don't have backup sites on most of my rifles.
Sometimes you earthlings REALLY amaze me!
Most of my rifles don't have sights, but are equipped with picitinney rails.
I have quality scopes on them with QD rings.
When out hunting or just shooting, I have a cheap scope with QD rings for my 2 main weapons, one being my hunting rifle, the other my shtf MBR.
The cheap scope is already zeroed for each rifle and also has QD rings. If my good scope fails, I can put the cheap scope on and my day is not ruined.
It's a good way of having a back up in case you have problems with your good scope. The replacement scope will shoot within an inch when put on the rail, which is plenty close enough.
John k
You have to remember that the laser is hitting the wall low. when setting up the scope have the laser hitting the retical about half way down. when you get to the range it will be close to right on at 50 yrds
Thats why they call it hunting and not grocery shopping

Welcome to St Mary's Church
St Mary's Church in Lower North Adelaide was first established in 1877 and operated as a branch of the Adelaide Cathedral parish until 1898. The church then operated as a separate parish in its own right following the arrival of Irish Dominican Priests in the colony. It is ironic that in 2007 following the retirement of Fr Kevin O'Loughlin it is once again part of the Adelaide Cathedral Parish.
In its early days (1870's - 1970's) the site operated as both a school and a church. The school was founded by St Mary of the Cross MacKillop and it is believed that she visited the church on several occasions.
Following a restoration in 2001 the church offers a unique blend of a modern liturgical environment in a thoughtfully restored heritage building. The space that has been created is beautiful, hospitable and is an inviting assembly place for all forms of worship. The Church is air-conditioned, has full wheel-chair access and a closed loop system for the hearing impaired.
The community is active, welcoming all who wish to join. Some have attended for many years while others are more transient in this inner city area which attracts students and others on short term assignment in Adelaide. If you are new please introduce yourself to our Pastoral Associate or a CLC member. Often there is coffee after Mass at a nearby cafe, don't be shy about joining in.

For the sake of this exercise, let's use a baseball park (not that I know too much about baseball) So traditional salesmen and women are operating left field; they are usually totally focused on a single sales event, and they sell products.
If asked to describe the value they bring, they would simply offer you product options, and they are always willing to compete on price to get the order. They typically sell to "users" which requires them to be consistently reactive, and of course, their achievement levels are as unpredictable as British weather. Finally, if asked to describe commercial politics, they would stare blankly at you – that isn't their fault, it is simply that they have never been exposed to it – and the same goes for ROI.
These people are all operating exclusively in "me-too territory"
When we move into center field, we find ourselves in "me-first territory:" These salespeople bring much more to the table and have a much wider commercial bandwidth. They are pre-occupied with business process; they focus both on the customer and their competitors; they don't simply sell products, but rather "application solutions" they are acutely aware of the need to make a profit, and usually they deal with recommenders – so they have taken a giant stride up the food chain.
These salespeople understand that reliability is more important to customers than speed of response (reactivity) and they are also politically agile. Naturally they can sell using ROI arguments, and finally, their achievement levels are consistent.
You might be forgiven for thinking that must be as good as it gets – after all, the two scenarios that we have described account for around 95% of the global sales population. But actually, no, it gets even better!
Now we are entering "only-me territory" – the hallowed turf of the sales world. We are very much right-field, and the population is made up of the biggest hitters, whose primary pre-occupation is long-term outcomes, and their focus is entirely on the customer's commercial objectives and how they can assist the customer in achieving them: The value they bring is strategic direction, and they only see long-term ROI. Their dealings are exclusively with key decision makers, and they penetrate formal DMU's as easily as a knife slicing through butter.
These salespeople are always on the front foot, deliberately pro-active. They identify the business they want, and they go after it. They are not just politically agile, they are politically astute, and they use politics to win whenever they need or have to; they always secure high ROI, and they consistently exceed quotas. They have complete account control.
And you, where do you spend most of your selling time?
In the precarious left field, where you are totally at the mercy of your prospects and customers, hoping that they will call you?
Maybe you are center field, which does indeed feel much more secure when compared to your colleagues to the left of you, even though you frequently cast envious glances to those colleagues on your right.
Or maybe, just maybe, you really are a top 5% achiever? If you are, congratulations, I know precisely what it took for you to get there.]]>
Generating leads is of course, an important sales activity that plants the seeds of growth for sustainable business development. A lead is purely a name that you could refer to as a SUSPECT because their potential to buy is unknown.
Before you can qualify leads to determine whether they have the money, authority and desire to buy your products/services you need to generate them!
When deciding upon which lead generation methods work best for you and your organization, it helps to have clarity on the type of customers that you'd like to attract. This means creating an "Ideal Customer Profile" that can begin to provide direction to your lead generation activities.
The following questions will stimulate your thinking when it comes to developing an Ideal Customer Profile:
– What size of organization would you prefer to deal with?
– Typically, how many people will they employ?
– What market sector(s) do these organizations operate within?
– Who specifically will be buying your products/services and what are their titles?
– Where geographically would you like these organizations to be located?
– What does your organization offer that is unique?
– What types of organizations will be attracted by this uniqueness?
– What do your best customers possess that you would like to replicate in others?
– Which of your existing customers were the easiest and quickest to convert?
– What similarities do these customers possess?
– Are there any specific criteria that prospective organizations should have in place, so that your products/services can be optimized?
Having a well-defined profile of your "ideal customer" can prove to be invaluable when determining which methods to use for lead generation, and improves the effectiveness of marketing initiatives.
You may also discover that the process for asking for referrals becomes easier and generates a better response, because you are providing the person with a tighter specification of what you are looking for – this concentrates their thinking towards the direction you have defined.]]>
The motivation to do this should be strong. Whilst this has almost become a cliché, it is a harsh reality – it now costs fifteen times, yes, that's what I said, fifteen times – as much to locate, qualify and sell to a new prospect as it does an existing customer.
In order for you to appreciate the significance of that number, try and calculate the costs involved with all the pre-sales activity that you were involved in the last time you won a new client/customer, and now subtract that from the gross margin you claimed on that deal… substantial eh! But it's OK, your company probably absorbed those costs and it didn't affect your commission?
May I give you three tips to start building those brick walls around your best customers?
As the end of the year approaches, I advise you to consider conducting formal account reviews with all of your most important customers/clients – either face-face, or if that is not possible, then via the phone. It should be a non-sales event, which will allow you to discover what business might be forthcoming from each client/customer in 2015. It will also differentiate you, because this type of initiative is still, sadly, not common practice.
Second, when was the last time you asked your clients/customers how often they would like you to contact them? And have you ever asked them their preferred method of communication- i.e. email/personal visit/telephone? Carry out a survey; you might just be surprised at the results.
Third, map out your most important client's organization chart, and then try to extend your area of influence. Why? Because most sales professionals tend to inhibit their influence in important accounts by making one or two strong contacts, and then believe they have it all sown up. This is folly. Most decision-making units consist of more than two people, so whilst you are busy selling to one or two people who are already sold on you and your services/solutions, watch out for the politically astute competitor who is gradually covering all of the bases.
Always remember that the one term that sets top performers apart is …. "customer focus."]]>
So, having posed the question, let me provide some answers – why is selling really going inside?
The most obvious reason is pure economics: After the recent financial meltdown, companies have been forced to examine the true cost of sales – something they do not usually have time to focus on when business is buoyant – and what they will have discovered may have startled them, because sales costs have been spiralling out of control for a number of years: Fuel costs, labor costs, the cost of raw materials, for example, have all soared, and put simply, because of intense competition, the price of our products and solutions have remained largely unchanged.
The net effect of all of this has put thousands, if not millions of companies – globally, not just in North America or Europe – out of business.
You see, it is very easy to calculate gross margin/gross profit – which is what most compensation plans are still based on, amazingly – you simply deduct your buy-in cost from your sell-on price. However, your actual net profit is vastly different. Let me give you an example:
Let's take a typical sale in a consultative/collaborative environment: After some pretty rigorous qualification at the front-end, we decide that we have uncovered an opportunity that is worth pursuing. We arrange an initial exploratory meeting, face-face, because face-face selling is still a dominant feature of selling at that level. If the meeting goes well, and the full traditional sales/buying cycle is followed, there may be another five, six, seven meetings, not just involving the lead salesperson, but his/her line manager; some technical resource on very "big-ticket" deals, even some finance input – team selling.
You do not need a degree in higher math to calculate the total cost of all this effort: I read somewhere the other day that it now costs $1500 to put one salesperson in front of one customer for one meeting. I actually think that this number is very conservative. But you get my point?
Whilst this level of investment may be justified for extremely high-value business, and may be possible to control, we are talking about less than 0.5% of all business transacted, and this means that for everything else, we should be considering our options.
The reality is that the traditional customer call once seemed indispensable to the selling process – the time and expense involved were just a basic cost of doing business. But today, the business community has to regard the sales call as an expenditure for which there are substitutes. For many companies, telemarketing, video conferencing and direct email, have made the sales call a choice, not an inevitability – which takes us back to understanding why so many companies are moving their salesforces inside. I repeat, it is pure economics.
Advances in technology mean that we can now effectively conduct face-face meetings online – and you know what, we can manage five, six, seven meetings in one day, rather than the one or two we are managing at the moment.
I do not believe that we will ever see the day when face-face selling disappears completely – certainly it is not going to happen in my lifetime. But equally, we cannot cling on to out-dated and unprofitable practices.
Change is the one constant that we can rely on in life, and that is certainly true for those of us who are populating the sales-space right now – but isn't it exciting?]]>
For clarity, here is a brief description of the following terms:
An organization's vision is a guiding image of success formed in terms of a huge goal. It is a description in words that conjures up a picture of that organization's destination. A compelling vision will stretch expectations, aspirations, and performance. Without that powerful, attractive, valuable vision, why bother?
A mission statement communicates the essence of an organization to its stakeholders and customers, and failure to clearly state and communicate an organization's mission can have harmful consequences around its purpose. As Lewis Caroll, through the words of the Cheshire cat in Alice in Wonderland says, "If you don't know where you're going, it doesn't matter which way you go."
Guiding principles are the consequence of a mission statement that are intended to inform or shape all subsequent decision-making, which also provides normative criteria allowing policy-makers to accept, reject or modify policy interventions and activities. They are a guiding set of ideas that are articulated, understood and supported by the organisation's workforce.
Values are beliefs which the organization's workforce hold in common and endeavor to put into practice. The values guide their performance and the decisions that are taken. Ideally, an individual's personal values will align with the spoken and unspoken values of the organization. By developing a written statement of the values of the organization, individuals have a chance to contribute to the articulation of these values, as well as to evaluate how well their personal values and motivation match those of the organization.
The Human Capital Development Model, created by Krauthammer International, is a logical process that can take top management concepts, and translate them into a context that has real meaning for staff at all levels.
The key to bringing this model to life is to answer the following questions:
– Do my team understand the organization's vision and how their role moves the organization closer to achieving it?
– How can my sales team translate the organization's mission into one that is relevant to them?
– How does the organization's guiding principles impact on the day-to-day responsibilities of sales people?
– Which of the organization's values does my sales team relate to?
– How can we interpret these values so they become compelling for each sales person?
An effective sales team understands the big picture and the context of their team's work to the greatest degree possible. That includes understanding the relevance of their job and how it impacts the effectiveness of others and the overall team effort.
Too often, sales people are asked to work on an activity without being told how their role contributes to organization's vision, much less how their efforts are impacting the ability of others to do their work. Understanding the organization's vision promotes collaboration, increases commitment and improves quality.
An effective team works collaboratively and with a keen awareness of interdependency.
Collaboration and a solid sense of interdependency in a team will defuse blaming behaviour and stimulate opportunities for learning and improvement. Without this sense of interdependency in responsibility and reward, blaming behaviours can occur which will quickly erode team effectiveness and morale.]]>
Stemming the ever-increasing costs of the fear of calling syndrome cannot be addressed by training alone. It requires an experienced coach or mentor to work with each salesperson's particular set of beliefs, so that they feel truly empowered to break through their self-created mental barriers. One particular statistic, in the following survey, should give any salesperson suffering from fear of calling renewed confidence.
How Customers Regard Salespeople Survey
Salespeople who do not bother to make appointments – 45%
Salespeople who know nothing about the customer's business – 60%
Salespeople who don't know enough about their own products and services – 60%
Salespeople who call too often – 9%
Salespeople who don't call often enough – 49%
Salespeople who do not have the authority to negotiate prices – 45%
Salespeople who do not ask for the order at the appropriate time – 40%
Salespeople who are not properly or sufficiently organized – 55%
Most desirable quality customers want to see in salespeople? Competence!
We must remember that a salesperson's state of mind is instantly transferred to their prospect or customer, which means that the challenge for organizations is to constantly create a highly resourceful state in their salespeople. This is extremely important, because when salespeople lack belief in themselves, their product or their service, they unconsciously transmit their attitude to in a variety of subtle and sometimes overt ways.
Most sales managers grasp the concept of activity management, skills development and knowledge development and a few intuitively also understand the vital importance of the right mind-set. Yet, far too many feel powerless to help their salespeople turn their negative beliefs into positive ones. Those who do tackle such negative beliefs and are able to change their salespeople's self-limiting beliefs into empowering ones have found an unbeatable path to success.]]>
That statement is guaranteed to produce a lot of blank faces, and considerable head scratching!
But, if we are highly motivated, and we have received on-going skills training, and we are using the very best process tools, and we are totally au fait with the benefits of social selling etc. we are bound to be successful aren't we?
Short answer? No, not any more. Let's look at recent history…
Forty years ago frontline sales professionals believed that success would automatically arrive if they developed their personalities and adhered to the mantras of Tracey, Nightingale, Ziglar and co. And it is true even today that self-confidence, self-motivation, empathy, rapport building etc. will indeed take you a long way, and without most of those personal characteristics you will not succeed.
Then thirty years ago the "mega-training" companies such as, Huthwaite, Holden, Target etc. arrived with new selling models – what I termed "scientific selling solutions" It was new thinking at the time and it was all rather good. Meanwhile, the rapidly developing "tailored solution" organizations such as Miller-Heiman, Wilson, Sandler, to name just three, were becoming market leaders in their fields – so that's the "skills-orientated era" taken care of, which of course is still with us today.
Twenty years ago, "process and control" were the new buzzwords. CRM systems began to flood the market, and sales managers licked their lips at the prospect of all that data at their fingertips. Consultative sales processes were developed – not always adopted and implemented successfully though – and the Attitude + Skills + Process loop was complete … well almost.
When people began congratulating themselves that they had adopted ASP, most forgot about "K" Well, that's not quite true. In fact they spent millions of dollars on "K" in the certain belief that it stood for "Knowledge" as in product knowledge – only half-right.
As I alluded to earlier, "Knowledge" is a much more complex issue. What about:
Industry knowledge
Sector knowledge
Competitor knowledge
Political knowledge
Commercial knowledge
Own company knowledge
Economic knowledge
These then are today's realities, and I believe that every organization that intends to survive in this new re-engineered environment must, in my view, respond to those realities.
Let's be clear, today's clients/customers – who have never been more "commercially educated" are looking for vendors who can be business partners, who are willing and able to share risks and who are able to properly manage the entire sales process.
It is suggested that 84% of buying decisions are based on emotion – if that really is the case, buyers will not entertain entering into a long-term relationship with us because they like us, but rather because they trust us. Trust does NOT happen overnight, it never did.
Logically we are far more likely to trust someone if we sense synergy, if the seller talks our language and if they are "knowledgeable"]]>
As a consequence, salespeople with this attitude concentrate on making sales rather than investing in themselves in order to become Top 5 % players and eventually most become disillusioned, resulting in a significant dip in achievements levels.
The knock-on effect of this is that most salespeople who move into management, take with them an underdeveloped view of selling – a "traditional" orientation and as consequence they help to create or maintain an unrealistic and short sighted vision of what will be needed to develop their teams.
Because they lack Top 5% experience themselves, and an insight into the skills needed to make it at the highest level, the environment that they help to create fails to recognise the need for outstanding performers, and this is particularly noticeable in the compensation structures they build, which neither supports nor encourages their teams to break through that final glass ceiling.
As I have said often enough, both here, and on numerous other occasions, the single most common mistake that organizations make is promoting their number one salesperson into the role of sales manager, thereby depriving themselves in a single stroke of their best producer and hamstringing their sales force with an ineffective manager.
The skills required for managing, mentoring and developing a sales team are totally different from those required for selling. As a result, it's not uncommon to find newly promoted sales managers who regret having taken a management position and may even leave to get back into sales – that is if they are not pushed first!
The majority of sales managers – new and experienced alike – say they do not have sufficient time to train and develop their sales teams. They are so focused on sales results – and so accustomed to achieving success through their personal pursuit of those results – that they overlook their greatest potential source of power, the power to increase sales performance by developing their people.
"The sales manager's role is transforming from evaluator to developer, from expert to resource, from teller to questioner. This change is no mere tweaking adjustment, it is a 180° shift from how most sales managers manage and how they are managed. Most organizations profess to want coaching, but they don't really do anything about it. Just as students are lucky to have one or two special teachers in a lifetime, most sales professionals are lucky if they get one real coach. Organizations don't have role models for coaching, they don't train for it, and they don't hold people accountable for it." Sales Coaching by Linda Richardson
In "Tougher at the Top" which Linda and I will be publishing next year, you can be certain that these are just some of the issues we will be addressing.
You see, today, the role of sales manager is pivotal. It is the vital link, and ineffective sales leadership is the main reason why so many sales teams are failing.
All the current excitement surrounds lead generation – it seems that everything I read everywhere, is totally focused on finding, qualifying, and weighting leads. But what is the point of continually creating new opportunities and passing them to sales managers who are unable to cope?
Depending on which sets of statistics you believe, sales performance is spiralling downwards, and yet compensation packages are increasing? But that topic is for another day.
At the end of the day, the sales leader needs to be a "model of excellence" – only then will the pack faithfully follow.]]>
Making a sale has always involved an element of systematic planning but strategic selling means more than rehearsing product information and timing the close. Strategic selling begins with understanding your company's strategy, vision, and distinctiveness and then selecting high profile customers.
The next step, logically, is anticipating each stage of the buying process, from analysing the competition to identifying the influencers and decision-makers and being switched in to the buyer's political issues. In other words, there is a need for a comprehensive strategic profile and rigorous opportunity assessment process.
Most important, strategic selling means strategizing from the customer's point of view. Top achievers see strategic selling as a routine part of their work – not a final resort.
And Now the Good News:
It is now a given fact in any sales-related seminar or conference you may attend that traditional sales methods are being relegated to the annals of history. The new, more discerning customers of today have seen to that. They now wield greater bargaining power, demand more value for money and have become more knowledgeable and professional when it comes to decision-making. Suppliers are now faced with rising customer expectations and the need to become more flexible to the requirements of each individual client.
Yet the key to differentiation lies within these expectations, since more complex buying decisions lead customers to value closer links with their suppliers.]]>
So, with all of this in mind, why is it that some people – many people actually – believe that a "vanilla" or "generic" sales methodology will serve the needs of all?
To be clear, this post is aimed at all those sales training organizations that claim to have an "out-of-the-box" solution which meets the needs of all front-line sales professionals. They don't! They can't possibly have! No such thing exists! There is no single one way to sell – different situations, industries, roles, cultures etc. require a totally different approach. Here is why.
Let's begin by thinking about sales roles: As I have discussed before here, there are effectively three "stages" of a sales cycle, which requires us to recognize that there are actually three identifiable sales functions – or as I prefer to refer to them, "Sales Phases" i.e. Phase One: lead generation/prospect attraction. Phase Two: prospect conversion/closing the deal, and finally, Phase Three: client/customer retention and development.
We then need to think about the skills needed in each of our phases, because they are completely disparate: For example, when you are working in Phase One, logically you need to be skilled at cold-calling, or email marketing, or referral selling. Most social media pro-activity is also focused on creating incremental opportunities – and you will not learn any of these skills from any sales methodology program that I have ever seen.
During Phase Two, if we follow the "traditional" sales/buying cycle path, we need to qualify the opportunity, create a solution that precisely fits our prospect's requirements, present that solution, negotiate, and close. That all sounds rather simplistic, and we all understand that complex sales can be far more … well complex. Here most sales methodologies come into their own.
Finally, Phase Three, this is the phase where most companies are weakest, preferring to concentrate most of their resources on Phase One: The ability to first build and then develop a strong customer base, which promotes strong two-way loyalty, and is founded on a totally symbiotic philosophy is what differentiates highly successful companies from the also-rans – and for also-rans, read much less profitable. Again, you will not gain anything from a sales methodology program if you wish to take these skills on board.
So far I have merely illustrated how out-of-the-box sales team development can never provide a precise solution in terms of skills development: We then need to look at industry/sector specialization. And then, what about culture? Do we all sell the same wherever we are located in the world? Of course we don't.
Be assured, one size will never fit all – in fact, it won't fit many.]]>

Been a long time between posts. I'm now home back in Sydney, Australia.
And my has It been a whirlwind since my return.
Back at work, sourdough comes second nature to me, the mixing, shaping and baking is not only a process but a way of life. There is a serious art to it and boy did I miss it while overseas.
Since I have been back I have been Fortunate enough to have WIN news film me teaching the Tafe students at Wollongong TAFE how to make Cornish pasties. This was a fantastic experience, never would I have imagined happening when I was once a student in that same classroom. Thank you to TAFE Illawarra for making that possible for me. Kind of like it when you go and people say "I swear I saw you on tv"….
I then had the wonderful opportunity of hosting this years Sydney Central and northern regions Training Award night at Ryde College. It was my first time hosting an awards night and I'm told I did extremely well. Was so great to tell my story and have the utmost recognition for my achievements to date.
And finally just yesterday I attended the Excellence in Baking competition held at Hamilton TAFE. It was great to see the work of the talented young pastry chefs from NSW and to catch up with the fantastic members and associates of the Baking Association of Australia.
It's great been back in Australia, looking forward to what's to come.

3MB and Ricardo Rodriguez as Playgirl…reindeer. And there's Brad Maddox, growing his hair out. Purr…
This is from last night's WWE houseshow in New York.
Raw Review Part 5/6:
- Vickie Guerrero is fired and Brad Maddox is appointed the new General Manager of Raw!
- The segment was, as expected, an excuse to show the growing tensions within the McMahon family. It was played out well though and, of course, had a big feel. More of this please.
- Brad being in charge should offer some short-term comic relief but come Summerslam it may have already ran its course. Seemed more like a simple solution to grab ratings than something useful.
I don't really agree with the last point because I think it discredits Brad's on screen abilities before really letting them get started.
I'd rather be casually optimistic then just assume he has short term appeal.

UK Comber early potatoes have been granted protected geographical indication(PGI) status under European law.
The potatoes are prized for their distinctive earthy, nutty flavour and characteristic soft smooth skin.
The granting of PGI status means the new season Comber potato joins an elite group of high quality European products, including Parma ham, Champagne wine and Stilton cheese, reported the BBC.
PGI status recognises the regional importance and distinctive characteristics of the Comber spud and means that only new season potatoes harvested from the fields of Comber and the surrounding area can be marketed as new season Comber earlies.
PGI legislation came into force in 1993 and provides for a system for the protection of food names on a geographical or traditional recipe basis.
The scheme highlights regional and traditional foods whose authenticity and origin can be guaranteed.

Bold burglars have city residents uneasy
The five burglaries happened between 11 a.m. on Saturday and 10:20 a.m. on Sunday.
In one case, a brazen thief broke into a Walnut Street home when the homeowner was outside mowing her lawn.
In another instance, a thief tried to break into a Laurel Street home at night while the homeowner was sleeping. The burglar was thwarted by safety stops on the windows, police said.
Burglars mostly stole electronic items, but coins were taken in one instance, police said.
The city averages 15 burglaries — both commercial and residential — a week in the summer, though break-ins spiked to about 30 a week during a two-week period in mid July. Many of those burglaries since resulted in arrests.
The Aug. 24-25 burglaries are as follows:
• An Elmwood Avenue resident reported finding his side porch door shattered about 11 a.m. Saturday and his house ransacked but nothing appeared to have been taken.
• A Brown Avenue resident reported about 4:30 p.m. that he left the house for about an hour and returned home to find the door unlocked and electronic items taken. No sign of forced entry.
• A Queen City Avenue resident returned home about 5:30 p.m. Saturday to find someone broke into his apartment through a side window. Two gaming systems were taken.
• A 49-year-old Laurel St. woman woke up Sunday morning to find a hole cut in her window screen and the window partially opened. Safety stops prevented it from being completely opened. She believes someone tried to get in overnight as she slept. She had been burglarized Aug. 17 when someone was able to push open a window and steal a laptop just inside the window.
• A Walnut Street woman told police about 10:20 a.m. Sunday that her home had been broken in to while she was in the back yard mowing her lawn. She and a neighbor spotted a man walking in the alley and through yards and decided to check the house. She noticed a porch door screen pushed in, her purse ransacked and coins missing. It appears the suspect may have been scared off since other valuables were left behind.
The city had 77 burglaries reported between Aug. 1-23. This compares with 64 burglaries reported during the same time frame last year.

This location is staffed by knowledgeable and helpful people
Excellent site. Friendly people. Location bad because of Clinton Hwy but that is the only thing I could find that could be improved. It was a very easy, friendly experience.
Helpful staff and the equipment was in good shape.
My wife and I have used this location several times now and it has always been EXCELLENT! John is great! Thanks again.
It's frustrating that when you call you have to speak to a central phone center to make the reservation and not the actual location. I'd rather be put on hold until someone at the place can speak to me than to have to go through all of the boilerplate questions twice, once on the phone with someone who doesn't know the area and again when i go to pick up the truck.
I have rented twice from this site in the last 60 days, and the service is excellent!!!
Yes I will, and I have referred people to this site. I even got money back, how honest is that. The people working there are helpful, courteous and know there product well.
there is usually discrepancy on the fuel that was in the vehicle but this time I put a few more gallons in just to make surethat I didn't get charged outrageous amount of money for the fuel
Don't charge your customer twice for a product! Don't make excuses. Was told one thing but then got there and it was changed to something different. Have rented from Uhaul several times and by far this was my worst experience!
Excellent service, equipment was is good shape, this made our experience renting a car hauler a good one. Thanks U-Haul
Worst experience ever! I would never recommend uhaul to any friends. EVER! My original pick up location wasn't open when I was supposed to pick up so I had to drive to another location and I got nothing from uhaul for the inconvenience!
Staff member could not articulate the reason for some of the charges on my receipt. Staff should be better trained.
It was fine, the only issue was they indicated for me to return the Uhaul at half a tank but it was below half a tank when I took possession. Not tremendously far, but with the price we're paying and how expensive it is to gas a Uhaul up, I don't need to be putting extra gas in that I didn't use.
Quick service. We were pleased with the truck
Was rude upon drop off. Didn't tell us all the info about making a claim. Overcharged us for repairs.
there is nothing wrong with the u haul on clinton hwy excellent service before them we had resavation for a notther one in powell the man we call to confirm sayed we could not rent from him because his computer was down an didnt think in 4 days it would be up he refuse to except ours U Haul give us for Clinto HWy they gave excellent service
Everyone at this location was helpful and friendly.
I used the expedited check-out process available on the internet. Was in and out of the office in under 10 minutes. Equipment (car hauler trailer) was in excellent mechanical and cosmetic condition and it was a breeze to tow with my F-250 Super Duty. Will use U-Haul for this purpose in the future.
Outstanding customer service in resolving my rental problem!
When I picked the truck up there was not a quarter tank of gas in it. And the customer service at this location leaves a lot to be desired.
Excellent customer service. The location is a bit small and congested.
Location of pickup not open on holiday and no key dropoff box. Wanted to charge me out of town rate to drop it off 1 mi down road. Left it at location with keys on porch. $80 more just to drop it off at secured location. Not likely.
James was great, the price was fair, customer service excellent
The only thing that bothers me with renting from UHaul is the fact I feel I'm being charged double when I have to replace the gas I used in the vehicle as well as pay you 59 cents a mile - too much.
The 2 neighborhood locations that were closest to my final destination were closed when I got there....which was an hour before their posted close time.

- Poor ServiceOpenTable Diner Since 2010VIPDined on 10/12/2014We got there 15 minutes before our reservation and were seated immediately. Then it went downhill. We were never given napkins or any type of utensils, I had to ask for them. Food took almost an hour but I will say it was absolutely delicious. There servers were very stressed, kind of all over the place. I think they were perhaps short handed? Or just confused??Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/10/2014Delicious food, even for the kids. The kids meal had a great variety and reasonably priced. My husband really enjoyed the sushi and I thought the miso yaks butterfish was absolutely delectable!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great happy hourYummyDined on 9/14/2014We've been here several times and was never disappointed. Although the happy hour food offering now lists only a few dishes, most were delicious and reasonably priced. We, the Mrs and I, also enjoyed the drinks with her sangria and my few beers and excellent sake. Mrs ordered the hamachi nigiri 3xs and I one each of the salmon and ika that had a nice sliver of shiso. The steak was a wonderful surprise for only $18...well seasoned, perfectly grilled and tender, a must order for beef lovers. Only disappointed with the uni as it was not fresh, but the whole dining experience was wonderful.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- More selection on menuShushuDined on 8/30/2014Love the decor!!! The wait for our food was quite long even though there were only a few people/tables filled. Dynamite sushi was smelly. I think the salmon was going bad. We went for the grilled hamachi but was told there was only one left. Hmmmm ....it was only noon time not closing time. Wish there was more of a selection on the menu. The edamame appetizer was yummy and mom said the hamachi was good. The sushi platter was tasty.
- Great find!CERREPROVIPDined on 8/26/2014If your reading this and traveling to Ko Olina for the first time your going to find there's not a lot of dining options for you. Those of us who have been know exactly what I'm talking about. Well now there's another and a pretty darn good one at that. We weren't expecting much but went almost out of desperation because we're soooooooooooooooooooo tired of the highly overrated Monkey Pod. Wow were we ever surprised. The service was amazing. Food great and believe it or not prices rather reasonable considering where your at. Needless to say we highly recommend it and will be going back often!Special Features:
- Great sushi in Ko'OlinaJKJSWDined on 8/17/2014After reading various reviews, we were interested to see what Yuzu would offer. It was WONDERFUL!! Our service was very good, yes, some dishes came out as they were prepared, but I think that is normal in sushi restaurants. Our server let us know that the teriyaki chicken skewers for my son might take a bit longer, which they didn't, at the time we ordered. The rolls, poke and sashimi came out in a timely manner, as did drink refills. Overall, we really, really liked the restaurant and wished we had tried it earlier in our stay so that we could have visited Yuzu again.Special Features:
- Reservation missedJtsuruta14Dined on 8/5/2014We had a reservation for 5 and was told to wait 20 mins For a table. 20 mins went by and then we were told to wait another 20 mins . Another 20 mins later , we were led to the bar tables where I had to stand because there were no chairs . 15 mins later , we were asked for our drink order , but by then it was too late so we left . This is not typical for the type of service .it was clear they were understaffed .Special Features:
- SpagehtisFriendVIPDined on 7/15/2014Very good food, but each order is brought out as it is made. With a party of four, one person may get his food a half hour before the fourth person gets his food. Can make for a long dinner.Special Features:
- Just okayJackieDined on 7/9/2014I feel bad saying that but it was expensive ($150 for 2 adults 2 kids) and the sushi was just okay. The quality was not great for being surrounded by an ocean. The service however was very friendly so if you aren't a sushi snob you're probably okay. We may give them another chance...
- Dinner Menu is preferred808foodieVIPDined on 7/6/2014We typically eat dinners here but decided to go one day for lunch. The lunch menu is much smaller and doesn't have all of our dinner favs like the lotus root pizzas and assorted yakitori (only teriyaki available for lunch). Next time we'll wait till they serve the full dinner menu.Special Features:
- Unique taste and great serviceHawaiiDinerDined on 7/5/2014Quite a special place. Their fish is always fresh and the quality of the food is great. We enjoy the unique Yuzu flavor in their creations and finish every meal with the mango shave ice. Service was great and we will return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Waited Forever For Our FoodLSBLDined on 6/25/2014The food here was decent when we actually got it. Waited almost 25 minutes for our sushi order to arrive. We were so hungry we quickly are the edamame (too salty) and ordered more. That next order came half hour later after our food arrived. We were still hungry since we each only ordered one roll and my daughter didn't like her California roll which was too salty. Our mistake because even though we complained about how slow the kitchen was, fifteen minutes later we were still waiting for our food. They brought out our chicken skewers only to find out the other roll we ordered still had not been made!!! Frustrated we paid the bill and left. Will never go back or recommend and in fact the table who sat next to us left too.
- The following 16 reviews are from the Sushi Yuzu - Ko'olina reviews archive.
- Another Ko'Olina disappointmentOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 6/4/2014Our server was great, but the food was mediocre at best. Ko'Olina and its business model of overpriced low-quality restaurants is just disappointing -- anyone wanting a decent meal needs to head to the eastern or northern parts of the island. Why Hawaiian restaurants can't seem to serve fresh fish -- yet will charge $30-$40 for a frozen filet--is mind boggling to me.
- Fantastic Foodfathom17Dined on 5/18/2014Their menu includes lotus root pizza, shochu, and other amazing things you never see on a Japanese menu. The service was wonderful and the staff was very nice. We loved it so much we went two nights in a row.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent Sushi DiningTakazuDined on 5/18/2014Had early dinner at 5, Happy our from 4:30 to 5:30, they have my favorite beers Asahi and Echigo, the somen, grilled squid, organic potatoes, and Omakase combo meal was great, also tried a few other stuff from the menu and they were also great, the wait staff was very polite and always made sure if all was okay, the price is a little up there but worth will, was surprised for a Japanese restaurant they played the 80's american music, all in all a good dinning experience for me and my familySpecial Features:
- Good for a rainy dayOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 5/11/2014The restaurant is not very large, easily handling about 50 people inside. The staff were quite friendly, the quality of the food was VERY good and the prices not bad. However, we were a little disappointed that it took almost 15 minutes during the meal to get a re-fill of hot tea and water. Fortunately, we were not in a hurry and it was pouring rain outside, so we didn't frustrate over the slow drink service. I'd go again.I would recommend this to a friend.
- 3rd timeOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 5/3/2014One of the few restaurants you can eat healthy if you select correctly. Food is is tasty and well done. Price on higher side but expected. They have lower priced selection but not as healthy. Service excellent and relaxing if you don't have a party that is noisy next to you.Special Features:
- there's not a big selectionwishohnDined on 4/7/2014there's not a big selection during lunch time, which was kind of disappointing but it was tasty.
- Great sushi, very freshBenfromIowaVIPDined on 3/20/2014Very reasonably priced for sushi, Hawaii, and a resort area. The sushi was high quality and fresh. The owner/manager personally thanked me 3 times. Dont miss happy hour at 430 pm for excellent deals. Better than the conveyor best sushi in Kapolei
- Soooo Sad Sushi!MotherMayhemDined on 3/10/2014It's been a couple of days since our "experience" of dinnng here and after thinking about it and talking about it with a few of my local friends it seems a shame that he only thing holding this restaurant back is a good manager. If you read my review from Sunday night you can see what we put up with. The food was good but unfortunately that is the only thing.
- Sushi is the bestMarthaMelonsVIPDined on 2/22/2014The quality of the sushi is very good. The food takes a long time to come out but it is worth the wait. The servers are nice and friend but sometimes seem kind of confused and forgetful about taking care of their tables. But the food definitely makes up for it.Special Features:
- I Expected Much MoreSamSDined on 2/18/2014I heard of this place from co workers so I thought I'd try it out. Food was amazing and so was the drink menu, but portion size was worse than I thought, especially for the price I'm paying. The service was beyond outstanding and the dining was well set.Special Features:
- YuzuSnipDined on 2/14/2014The wait help was nice and the service quick but not really on spot. Sometimes the water glass was low. Food was good, portions reasonable.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Absolutely Fantastic!MLKLMKDined on 2/13/2014We absolutely loved this restaurant! The food was phenomenal and the staff was always incredible attentive. We were vacationing in Hawaii and once we found this restaurant we had dinner there 4 nights in a row... The sushi was great (wished for more variety) the grilled squid was the highlight of the menu according to my husband.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- decent foodfraneelaDined on 1/21/2014decent food, but very slow service. overpriced for the food. but better than other restaurants in the Ko Olina area.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice dining alternative for AulaniZobearDined on 1/10/2014We decided to try here for dinner on our recent Aulani stay. It's sushi joint so you pay sushi prices - not cheap but not really a rip off either. We thought it was still better than paying the resort dining prices back at the hotel. Even though it seems that sushi is their specialty, our favorite dish was actually the lotus root pizza! I would definitely order that next time we go. We didn't try any nigiri, just a couple of their fancy rolls. Best of the two was the lobster roll, plump and juicy pieces of lobster tempura on top of spicy tuna, another item worth ordering again. They had a pretty decent kids meal for about 10 bucks but my son's chicken karaage was really dry. He still enjoyed the french fries and the sausage though.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Try at your own riskBusterDined on 12/25/2013We had a terrible experience on Christmas day. There were few diners in the restaurant at the time but we waited 45 minutes for my wife's food before canceling her order and leaving. It was all sushi and should not have taken long at all. Other diners who came later were served before us. The manager was apologetic but did not have an explanation for why it took so long. My food came quickly and was OK but not outstanding. We had hoped to make it a regular dining place as it is close to our home. I'm not sure we will try it again.
- Good food and service but.......PickyeaterDined on 11/23/2013My husband had the OMAKASE Hawaii and I had the OMAKASE Japan. The food and service was good, but the indoor seating area was limited. We ended up at an outdoor table on the sidewalk with little lighting so I did not get to fully appreciate the presentation of our dinner. It was also quite windy and chilly so we ate quickly and left.
