Share your good news

Yesterday we talked about building a plan to increase income.
It is important that your key people be hip-deep involved.
Today we’re going to talk about getting others hip deep, too.
Strategy #1: Alert everyone in the company.
Let them in on the company’s strategic thinking.
Let them know about your plans and priorities.
Post them for everyone in your company to read.
Hold informational meetings for all departments.
Ask for suggestions, ideas and other related strategies.
If you need them, ask for volunteers to participate.
Invite everyone to lend their support and encouragement.
Strategy #2: Encourage sharing this with their families.
Send their families a letter from you about what’s going on.
They will feel relieved about your strong, positive steps.
This can become a tremendous morale builder for their families.
They have a stake in the future of your company, too.
They are aware that times are tight and action is needed.
Won't this tip off the competition as to what you're doing?
It may. But I'll bet no one rats to the competition.
Why should they? All of our jobs are at stake.
If you have a Judas, this is the time to weed him or her out.
Tomorrow we’ll talk about measuring your progress.
In my new workbook, we show you other ways to raise revenue.
