“If you are not taking care of your customer, your competitor will.” Bob Hooey
“Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.” Calvin Coolidge
“You don’t close a sale, you open a relationship if you want to build a long-term, successful enterprise.” Patricia Fripp
“Enthusiasm is the inspiration of everything great. Without it no man is to be feared, and with it none despised.” Christian Nestell Bovee

I started drawing this cartoon up last week – then got sidetracked with urgent pressure jobs, so it’s probably lost a bit of it’s effect now that the show is over. But it still has a motivational message underneath it – YOU SHOULD NEVER GIVE IN!
Moral: “Anyone can give up, it’s the easiest thing in the
world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else
would understand if you fell apart, that’s true strength.”
You have to be focused – you have to have laser like focus to drive you forward!

Bill Gates

Larry Flynt
I'm focused! I'm coming through no matter what!
Success depends on getting good at saying no without feeling guilty. You cannot get ahead with your own goals if you are always saying yes to someone else’s projects. You can only get ahead with your desired lifestyle if you are focused on the things that will produce that lifestyle. – Jack Canfield

When commissioning cartoons… Pick TWO of the three options!
Good+Fast = Expensive Choose this and I’ll postpone every other project on my drawing board, my round of golf or give up my footy match ticket and work day and night to get your job done. It WILL NOT BE CHEAP though!

And here’s a few of my favourite ‘sales quotes:
