Scott Ingram: You\u2019re listening to the Daily Sales Tips podcast and I\u2019m your host, Scott Ingram. Today is Thanksgiving here in the United States and if you\u2019re in the US I hope you had or are having a fantastic holiday. For my family and I, we\u2019ll be starting the day with a 5-mile adventure that besides food and football is one of my favorite traditions and that is the Turkey Trot. My wife and I started this back when we were dating in California originally at the Dana Point Turkey Trot, and in the 15 years that we\u2019ve now been in Austin we\u2019ve only missed a handful, and that\u2019s only been because we were traveling for the holiday. We did a couple of them when Emily was quite pregnant since my girls were born in December and January. We then pushed a stroller on the course for years. Then it was a combination of walking and carrying, and now that the girls do the full event under their own power we\u2019ll even run segments or sometimes even every other mile depending on how everyone\u2019s feeling. Then it\u2019ll be off to my in-law’s house here in town for a traditional dinner and some football. After a tough weekend for both of my teams, I\u2019ll be watching to see if the University of Texas Longhorns and the Dallas Cowboys can redeem themselves this week. I\u2019m also just looking forward to the time off, to knocking out a couple of projects around the house and to just hanging out with the family. I really don\u2019t have a tip for you today other than to say that it\u2019s important to be grateful all year long, not just on this designated day of thanks. It\u2019s why I try to make a point of thanking you for listening at the end of most episodes and I really really do appreciate you listening and being a part of this community. One thing I just realized that I haven\u2019t done is to give away a copy of my own book. So let\u2019s do that now. The first 5 people who send an email to me at scott@top1.fm<\/a> with a subject line along the lines of: Happy Thanksgiving – Please send me a book. I\u2019ll send you a copy of Sales Success Stories – 60 Stories from 20 Top 1% Sales Professionals<\/a>. Just be patient with my reply, because I might not get back to you right away. Thank you again and for the Americans. Happy Thanksgiving!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
