The 80/20 Rule 10/05/2010
0 Comments
 
You've heard of this idea right, the 80/20 Rule?! Basically it's saying, 20% of something will drive 80% of the results. Some examples: 20% of your sales staff will drive 80% of the company's sales, 20% of your clients will be what drives 80% of your revenue, 20% of your contacts will lead to 80% of your connections...etc. It is SO true and applicable in every area of our life so WHY do I get so surprised when my results aren't 100%?! Maybe it's because I'm a perfectionist that wants to please everyone and win everyone over.

But, here's the reality....alphaChicks ARE the 20%. We are the 20% that will give to our community 80% of its support. We ARE the women in the top 20% of your contacts that WILL provide 80% of your connections. And, we ARE in a smaller pool of like-minded women and NOT for everyone.

I struggle with this battle in my head to "win the numbers war". I struggle and compete with wanting more followers and more 'likes' and more women in our email distribution list. But, I know we don't need to win that war to be successful. We don't need that to provide HUGE value for those who commit their time and energy to alphaChicks. We are the TOP 20% and at alphaChicks, we are 100% committed to each other, our businesses and your dreams. Who could need more than THAT?!?!

So, I'm trying the blog thing again on the website now that the new layout makes it easier to read. If you would like to contribute to the blog (and are a member), then please let me know and we will include you! So, to start it off I thought I would share a quote that my cousin posted on her facebook status today that I couldn't resist spreading.

"I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day, and I believe in miracles." ~ Audrey Hepburn

Have a great weekend!
