Authenticity is the new currency in business today.

These 10 quick tips will make a HUGE difference to your bottom line.

1. Make intentions for your day. Predetermine your success. You are a powerful creator! Stop running on autopilot. Each morning answer these questions: How much money do I want to make? Who do I want to attract? What kind of interactions do I want to have? How would I like my day to unfold?

2. Start with gratitude. Practicing gratitude will inevitably invite more abundance to your life. Each day write down 2 separate lists: 1. What I am grateful for. 2. What I would be grateful for if I were to receive it. This gets you in the energy of RECEIVING.

3. Take care of your needs. Make your needs a top priority. Eat well, get plenty of rest and take care of pressing matters. You can then be present with clients. The art of "sales" is all about the exchange of energy between two people. Make no mistake, people buy your energy, not your product or service.

4. Dress for success. When you dress well you send the message to your clients that you are important and worthy of respect, but more importantly, you send yourself that message.

5. Make a list and JUST DO IT. This three minute task can save more time than any trick I know. Make your goals then start calling, knocking, adding friends on Facebook, or whatever you do to find prospects. Start with the most frightening tasks first. We tend to make them bigger than they really are. Then celebrate - the most important part!

6. Have backup tools to work with. The biggest secrets to my sales success are the energy tools that help bring me back to my presence and full power. You will face rejection, that's sales in a nut shell. Your success will be determined by how you navigate rejection and self-regulate your perceptions.

7. Remember, deliver value first. It's easy to get excited about money but remember your job, first and foremost, is to deliver real value to your clients. People can feel what your priorities are and, if it's not them, they won't open their wallets!

8. Have fun! Sales is creative. When you're stressed and burnt out there is no room for creativity to come through. Plan fun-time into your week! When you come back to selling you will find yourself rejuvenated!

9. Have the right mindset. For some people making $900 a day is insignificant. What are your perceptions on wealth? Expand your mind so you can expand your wallet too. Cultivate the habit of continually improving your perceptions of wealth.

10. Smile - a lot! Smiling lets people know you're safe to approach. People like to do business with people they know and trust. So smile, LOTS because following these ten tips will help you start seriously mopping up on cash. will make a HUGE difference to your bottom line.
