What Kind of Goal is "Do Your Best?"

Written By Mike Goss

If you do your best to close sales throughout the year, how will you know if it's enough? When your instructions are, "Try hard, and do your best," what does that mean. 

In a construction project, a Project Charter states the purpose of the project, the due date, the funding amount, and the accountable person: the project manager.  Why wouldn't you apply this tool to  your sales project?

Your Sales Project Charter contains three points:

  1. Deliverable: your sales goal.
  2. Due Date: the end of your sales year.
  3. Accountable Person: guess who? It's you.
