Around the Holiday Dinner Table

Postby Samantha Gardner on Sun Dec 20, 2009 2:39 pm

Yes - once again many of us will be sitting around with the "Family" in the next couple days. A wonderful time of the year. And then the question comes up - "What is it that you do again?"

They just don't get it. Personally, some of them never will. I have tried to explain it very simple terms but they just stare back.

What do you tell your family who wants more than an entrepreneur or online entrepreneur as an answer?

Hi neighbor! I'm in metro Ft Lauderdale a mere hour south of you. Happy New Year to you and yours.

Samantha, I tell people I am a "success merchant". What's that you ask?
I am glad you asked.
I am a national trainer who delivers necessary information to people involved in internet and information marketing and you? What do you do in the world of commerce?

Once you change the focus to them, they will enjoy talking about themselves more. Besides, I work by appointment and would never go any further beyond curiousity. These people who don't get what entrepreneurs do will always be employees and have no clue there is no job security. If they did, they would be seeking more skills to improve their current lifestyles.

While they drop their children off at daycare, you Samantha, have the pleasure of spending quality time with your children and perhaps raise healthier children.

To your continued prosperity

Most of my family say that I sell vitamins and do personal training. I usually just nod my head and keep eating.
