The No. 1 Ingredient for Business Success


What’s the No. 1 key ingredient to business success?

Some might say sales. Others might say marketing, technology or access to capital.

While each of these are surely important, after getting to know thousands of industry professionals with varying degrees of success, I can tell you the No. 1 ingredient for success is urgency.

In today’s world filled with email, voicemail, text messages, social media and all the details of our business, it’s harder than ever for business owners and sales professionals to focus on those urgent activities that drive success.

My encouragement for business owners and sales professionals is:

  • Make success an urgent matter.
  • Identify all the distractions that hinder your success and find a way to reduce or eliminate them.
  • Make the most of every day.

When success becomes urgent, success will become reality.
