Special thanks to  Angle Tuccy of Experience Pros for posting this video on her Facebook site.  http://www.facebook.com/#!/ExperiencePros?group_id=0 When I lived in Brooklyn and then on Staten Island, I got to "know" many of my MailMan... and one MailWomen by first name.   I looked forward to seeing them on the weekends and holiday.  Their goodwill did go a long way.   Including putting mail in my mailbox that was addressed to another address on my street.    <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/4GKQ9kTnSg4" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Once completed, your checklist can be used in ways that have nothing to do with client meetings. You can write articles on your topics. Mail the articles to your best clients, email them to your newsletter list, and bring them to networking events to hand out instead of business cards

A few bosses I remember fondly.   Thomas Leonard was one of them.  He was a financial planner, who although he didn’t attend college, was certified as such by a national organization. He created the coaching school I attended, Coach U, and was still teaching there when I registered but had sold it by the time I graduated.  He moved on and started a membership coaching school, called Coachville.  It was there that I worked for him for 3 years.  “t” as he preferred being called is fondly known as the father of the profession of coaching.   He created two coaching schools and two coaching organizations; all four ventures still exist today.  He was a prolific writer
