BIG TRADE SECRET! How to turn your hours into cash. Instead of working on important tasks that will generate both sales and recruits, many consultants allow unimportant things to consume most of their productive hours. They waste time on low-yielding tasks that earn them a minimum return like School runs, household chores for extended hours, going to deliver products from one part of the state to the other, or watching popular soap operas on their cable TV. Meanwhile, they forgo the activities that produce the bulk of the revenue for their business. You will all agree with me that being busy, is not the same as being productive. So, what is the value of your productive hours? And how best can you put them to good use.
