Discover Patterns of Success

Predictable Success

If you’re like I am, you’ve noticed how life is full of predictable patterns.

Have you ever looked out the window of an airplane or seen photos from space? Did you see the patterns?

Almost everything that seems completely random up-close, falls into a system of organization if you can view it from far enough away. From the window of an airplane, nothing seems random. Everything you see has a pattern.

MONEY MAKING TIP: Get the right perspective and there’s a valuable pattern waiting to be discovered.

OBSESSED

You’re going to think I’m crazy, but at one time I was so obsessed with patterns I wasted a lot of time trying to make sense out of the seemingly randomness of the lottery.

For three weeks straight I focused day and night on the Texas Pick 3 lottery. My wife would beg me to come to bed because my eyes were completely bloodshot and I was walking around mumbling in a nerd daze, but I was convinced I was about to crack the secret code–and find the predictable pattern.

To gain perspective on the Texas Pick 3 lottery, I went back two years and studied every winning set of numbers. I then developed several templates to use as viewing lenses to help me examine all of the data sets from multiple perspectives.

After I charted all of the prior winning numbers, I discovered, in a Bell Curve, a familiar pattern that I interpreted to mean, “what happened most recently is more likely to happen again in the near future.”

Simply put, I believed from my study that numbers recently selected were more likely to be selected again.

I waited a few days for the numbers to line up the way I hoped they would, using a template I discovered to be reliable, and then went down to the 7-11 to buy 64 exact match tickets. In order for me to win $500 in the Pick 3, one of those 64 sets of numbers I selected would have to be an exact match of the numbers drawn later that morning.

SALES PATTERNS

By now, you’re probably wondering, “Are there predictable patterns that I can use to my advantage in roofing sales?”

What if these patterns were real, provable, and repeatable?

That would be amazing, wouldn’t it?

If you knew what was going to happen before it happened, could you make more money with that information?

Imagine what it would be like to have a template where an increasingly greater number of prospects, those that fit inside one of your templates, could be turned into a new sale.

How much time would you invest finding those prospects?

What if you had several templates to help you gain perspective on new prospects?

Do you think you could make more money?

THE TRUTH

All of life is full of predictable patterns…even roofing sales.

Ask any old veteran roofing salesperson and they’ll tell you story after story about how they knew they were going to make a sale long before the prospect knew they were going to be sold.

Given enough time, experience, and perseverance, the templates of roofing sales success will make themselves known to you, too.They’re hiding in plain sight. You just have to find them.

They’re hiding in plain sight. You just have to find them.

Do you see the patterns of success?

You can. They’re out there.

Peace,
Mike

P.S. Of course, I won my first time playing the Texas Pick 3 lottery. Sadly, the next time I lost. I haven’t played much since because it takes too much time to track and wait for the perfect setup using the most reliable template I discovered. Besides, it’s easier to make money in roofing sales. 🙂
