Business Success Principle of the Day: “Get The Money!”. Some say the number one rule of business is “Get the Money!”, but that’s a little naive. The huge challenge in business is that there are many things you must do, and if you fail at any one of them, you will not succeed in business. “Get the Money” is surely one of those things, but so is bringing significant value to your customers, getting enough qualified leads, closing deals efficiently, building your team, and many other things.
 
Implementation: My favorite version of the rule would be something like: “Show up with integrity, bring real (and acknowledged) value to your clients, and Get the Money!” And then use the money to do everything else that needs to be done to survive and thrive.
