Day 2

Hey Folks,



One day down, and well into my second day. It was a good flight on Tuesday night, save the fact that I draw a community of sneezers around me on every flight. When I tell you that the guy next to me and directly behind me sneezed 50 times, it is an understatement. My hair barely moves in a strong wind…well, when I got off the flight, my hair was literally pushed forward, as if it were styled that way. The only payback I had was to keep them awake when they were trying to sleep, but if they were awake they would sneeze, so I couldn’t win



I arrived without my luggage, so I spent most of yesterday shopping for incidentals. Thankfully, one suitcase arrived, and it happened to be the one with my clothing. So, I began my one-on-one’s this morning, and Dee was kind enough to walk me to a small shopping centre, where I was able to locate the most awesome belt I have ever seen. Brown/Black reversible, for just £20. It is destined to become a sales contest prize upon my return to the U.S….so, if you were thinking about buying a black or brown belt sometime soon, wait, you will have a chance to win both. Weather-wise, we have seen sun and rain today, and it is about 68 degrees.



The reception by the group here has been wonderful, including a pair of 25lb dumbbells as a welcome gift. The first week or so will entail a lot of listening, to both employees and clients, with the hope of implementing the plan toward the end of next week. So far, the conversations have been great, and I have already learned a great deal. These next two weeks are critical.



I understand that we put up 22K or so yesterday, so we need a big finish today. Sell hard, and let me know if there is anything you need, and provide updates whenever possible.
