A Note from Lori

It is my passion to share these activities since they have changed the course of my life and my business forever.  Neil and I own Rogers Marketing, a marketing and promotional products company.  We increased our sales by 240%, became healthier, happier, more creative, and abundant; and you can too

Fear, worry, doubt, anxiety? Yes, I know, I have been there. You see I am a recovered worry wart. I am happy to report that my own “double blind placebo” study using these positive activities has shown positive results.

Remember the recession of 2009? I felt the same way then. It was at that time I decided I did not want to live with the worry, doubt, fear, and anxiety any longer. I reached a breaking point and wanted to be done with it.

I learned techniques to change my focus from negative thoughts and experiences to positive ones.

In 2011, when I started shifting and learning, I did not know these activities were scientifically proven to raise your level of happiness and optimism. Activities such as — an appreciation practice, conscious acts of kindness, positive affirmations, conscious recall, laughter, shifting perspective — to name a few. I was so excited to learn this and knew then I had to teach them! If this could work for me, I know it can work for you.

The pandemic hits (I’ll name it P2020 for short), our sales come to a complete halt, we can’t see our clients or friends, events are cancelled. Whoa, wait a minute. I have been here before. I know this feeling.

After a couple weeks of feeling fear, worry, anxiety, etc., my positive activities saved me. My happiness set point is at a higher level now and I am able to bounce back and be open to ideas, creative thinking, and seeing the “good”.  I am happy to report that are sales are bouncing back, we have several new clients, and we have adjusted and shifted with the times.

I have become a Rational Optimist. Even though there are negative events and experiences in the world I choose to live each day with joy and optimism. The best way for me to help my community, employees, family, friends, peers, is to shine bright and spread the knowledge.

A Note from Neil

Over the past 35 years, I have experienced sales success by using simple, tried, and true processes and procedures. These were developed from the school of hard knocks during my late teens into my mid-twenties. 

It was these organizational systems, along with common sense techniques like “showing up,” that propelled me to overcome focus issues and finish my college career. During this time, I worked in the hospitality business as a bartender, and I credit this experience for giving me my strong desire to serve the customer.   

In the Business Development section of the Positive Activity™ program, we will use these simple techniques coupled with a strong desire to serve the customer and a Positive Attitude to propel your business.

In 2022, I wrote Bar Tips: Everything I Needed to Know in Sales, I Learned Behind the Bar. My discovery process for this book included writings I had done about my youth in the past and more recent materials I had written for business.

Then came the realization that my days spent in the hospitality business, specifically behind the bar, were related to the sales success I had achieved. Hence, Bar Tips began.

If you are a young person struggling to find your footing and direction, I believe my story and the simple concepts outlined in the book will help. Also, for someone thinking about a job change and maybe considering sales, I think Bar Tips will be of service to you.

It will help because we speak simple concepts in simple language that you can quickly impart into what you are currently doing. The overarching mission encourages the reader to make incremental changes in current behaviors and methodology to improve desired results.
