Singtronix Super Salesman RM Al Borgers had his work cut out for him today.  And, we all know how much Al loves a challenge.  Al called on a Florist Shop that has been in business for over 32 years and made his presentation.   Along the way, the customer got distracted a few times.  But, being the diligent presenter that Al is, he took the challenge and ran with it.  Each time Al drew the customer back in by building value and gaining rapport.  In other words, Al made a friend!  At the end of the visit Al placed a Signtronix LED-60 and the customer is now anxious to get the sign up and working for their business!  Way to go Al!  Big time bragging rights to out to you!

Music City Just Getting Started

Thank you Signtronix for our C.A.R.P. Cash Awards Referral Program!  Eddy Ballis got a call from a previous Signtronix customer that was so excited about his new LED-60 that he was telling all his business friends.  The customer told Eddy to go see a business friend that owned a Restaurant.  His buddy now has on order a Signtronix LED-40, a Signtronix LED-60 & a flush mount Model 312 coming!  Way to go Eddy!   His previous customer has a check for $200 coming as well as a nice commission for Eddy!

Janet Kruder stopped in and talked with one of her previous customers who had ordered two Signtronix LED-40′s from her a while back.  They sent Janet to a Hardware Store where she placed a powerful Signtronix LED-60. Another commission for Janet and $200 Cash Reward for the customer.  Referrals are great but so is a little cold calling,

Tyler Eckenrod started the week with a Signtronix LED-40 combo.   He will surely get some good referrals from his recently placed customers!  And we’re just getting started in Music City!

A letter to Ann Landers became a favorite because of her response.  The writer talked of being older and of wanting to return to medical school and of being eight years older before getting a medical degree.  Ann Landers replied, “How old will you be in eight years if you don’t go back to school?”

Many people in reflecting about the past emphasize how important it is to have a dream and to follow it… not for money, not for prestige, not for someone else’s dream but for yourself.  A piece of you withers and dies if you do not have a dream.

Teamwork Makes It Happen

San Antonio Gunslingers Signtronix  RM Joel Pelton and his team are making it happen.  Signtronix DM Daniel Reuter and Clay Sultemeier are back at it writing up lots of locations inSouth Texas.  In one day the place a Model 34 to a Hair Salon, a Model 35 to an Amusement Center and Model 46 to another Hair Salon.  Way to go!

Greg Sandoval placed panel to an old customer at aBurger Place and picked up a GREAT testimonial letter.  The Burger Joint was so excited because their business had increased 200% since they got their Signtronix sign.  Nice job, Greg!

Daniel Reuter and Signtronix new dealer, Misty Blakeley, worked together trading lite-ups.  Misty wrote up an order for a set of panels to a Day Spa and then on Dan’s turn he placed a Model 36 to an Auto Repair business inAustin.  Teamwork makes it happen!

“There’s only one way to succeed in anything and that is to give it everything.”  ~Vince Lombardi

The dynamic and delicious duo of Tim McNeal and Bob Hollen of Signtronix, along with new Signtronix Dealers Andrew McDonald and Curtis Venn,  have been having lots of fun in the field making money and making a difference for small businesses.  They have been placing locations in all kinds of businesses in Oklahoma,Missouri and Kansas, not to mention, eating lots of great food and enjoying fantastic hotels.

As for Tim-Bob and Bob-Bob (aka the hillbilly alter-egos of our professional and successful Tim McNeal and Bob Hollen), they stopped to say, “Hi” at Super Sweets but were ignored while they ate maple syrup Bacon with peppercorn and scrambled eggs with cheese, potatoes and onions. The two had happy smiles while showing their “unique teeth” heading towards the Gourmet Bakery.

Talk around town is that they are Dominican Republic bound with bigger stomachs. Tim McNeal and Bob Hollen that is as Tim-Bob and Bob-Bob don’t have passports!  Stay tuned for updates!

Let’s GROW MANPOWER together!

“Knowing others is intelligence; knowing yourself is true wisdom. Mastering others is strength, mastering yourself is true power.”  ~Lao-Tzu

Signtronix DM Daniel “I want to be like Richard Houston” Reuter placed his second location of the day at 10:07 pm to a Collision Center in Kelly Pelton’s home town!  The real reason to be excited is that Daniel earned his FIRST Sijan, which is also the Signtronix Signtronix San Antonio Gunslingers region’s FIRST Sijan Way to go!  A big thanks to Clay Sultemeier from Signtronix for his “never quit” attitude while working with Daniel and to TAP Signtronix Rep Cynthia Valdez for her diligence in keeping her phone lines open very late!  We call that teamwork!  Brenda Moore called Daniel early the next morning to congratulate him and because of his late night she didn’t expect him to be in the field yet!  Surprise!  Not only was Daniel already up and in the field he was in a lite-up.  A quick “nice job” and Daniel went right back to his customer.  This is the true meaning of Sijan perseverance.  We are so very proud of you Daniel!

In other news from Signtronix RM Joel Pelton’s San Antonio Gunslingers they started off October right with a blitz of locations placed. Michael Petty of Signtronix had the month’s first placement, a set of Model 48 panels to a Lube Shop, followed the same day by a SF Model 46 and then two SF Model 34’s at a Music Store.  Michael Durham followed suit with a placement of a DF Model 36 at a Boutique. Daniel Reuter placed a SF Model 36 at a Pet Grooming Shop and also placed a sign at a Collision Center. Clay Sultemeier placed a DF Model 48 at a Meat Market. Then, working together, Daniel and Clay placed an LED-60 at a Tanning Salon. Finally, Greg Sandoval of Signtronix placed a DF Model 36 at a Day Care Center.

We wish everyone much happiness and a great year!

“Nothing of great value in this life comes easily.”  ~Norman Vincent Peale

While checking out of the room this morning, Al strikes up a conversation with the owner about his sign and says, “You know we’ve got a new one that goes in the window.” Immediately the owner’s interest was peaked. Within 30 minutes (including the check out time, lite-up and paperwork!) Al had an order for an LED-60 to go in his window. Al said, “The credibility was already there since he had a Signtronix sign that was working for him. The rest was super simple.” Great job, Al!

True Greatness

 A man is as great as the dreams he dreams,

As great as the love he bears,

As great as the values he redeems,

And the happiness he shares.

A man is as great as the thoughts he thinks,

As the worth he has attained,

As the fountains at which his spirit drinks,

And the insight he has gained.

A man is as great as the truth he speaks,

As great as the help he gives,

As great as the destiny he seeks,

As great as the life he lives.

“The person who gets the farthest is generally the one who is willing to do and dare. The sure-thing boat never gets far from shore.”  ~Dale Carnegie

The dedication and hard work put forth to achieve this goal is tremendous.  As Signtronix Steel City Eagles RM Buddy Swisshelm said recently, “Earning the Sijan Award was the single most difficult thing I have ever done.”  Buddy gave HUGE accolades to the Mount Rushmore of Signtronix Champions, Richard Houston who completed his 11^th Sijan this month.  And Signtronix Boston Team Eagle RM Steve Ingemi chimed in saying, “Richard is one AMAZING Sign Selling Machine!”

Be among the few, the proud, the Sijans!

“Life engenders life. Energy creates energy. It is by spending oneself that one becomes rich.”  ~Sarah Bernhardt

We’ve got medallions and jackets on order for Seth McNeal and Craig Jarrett who both made a GREAT showing in September Sijan.

The pride found in those who wear the distinguished “Wing” pin is to be recognized and applauded.  We are proud of every single person on the Sijan team at Signtronix.  You are all amazing and as Buddy Swisshelm says, “This is no easy task!”  Thanks!

Be among the few, the proud, the Sijans!
