Remember this line to be successful in sales.
2025.01.27 04:30 The-Usual-mud Remember this line to be successful in sales.
The foundational root of all sales success is a fanatical focus on prospecting
There is no secret formula that can deliver success
you always need to constantly prospect and fill your pipe with good leads.
Prospecting is supposed to be hard - there is no way around it - if you had a choice between prospecting and swimming with sharks, you would choose the sharks.
But the people who prospects regularly - wins.

2025.01.27 04:30 griffingrowl Stay at Auberge Hacienda AltaGracia, Costa Rica
First time posting here! Sharing my experience with and tried to add some structure for clarity. Pictures of the property are attached in the link to Google Photos album.
Also: x-posted to chubbytravel - see here
We spent four nights over Thanksgiving at Hacienda Alta Gracia in Costa Rica, and it was an incredible experience. Here's an honest breakdown:
Context
- Family: Myself (47), my wife (48), and our two daughters (6 and 3).
- Background: Based in the NYC area, accustomed to luxe and ultra-luxe travel, though relatively new to spending $$$$ (our new goal is to spend with intentionality).
- Travel Style: With my frequent work travel (50% of the time), I’ve amassed top-tier airline and hotel, status and a huge number of hotel, airline, and credit card points—Titanium Lifetime with Marriott, Globalist with Hyatt etc. This has made perks like suite upgrades, free breakfast, and late checkouts hard to pass up. However, as “the game” gets trickier, we’ve shifted towards burning down our balances ASAP (within reason - we’re not going to be silly)
- Luxury: Something in the luxe or ultra-luxe category.
- Family Fun: Activities for all of us together (gofunod for the family)
- Couple Time: Opportunities for my wife and me to unwind (fun for the couple)
- Kid-Friendly: Activities to keep the kids happy and engaged (fun for the kids)
- Booked via Amex Fine Hotels & Resorts (FHR).
- Total: $8,302.52 (USD) for 4 nights (~$2,075.63 per night).
- Room: Started with a standard casita, upgraded one level to a larger casita due to FHR
- Got the Amex FHR $100 credit but boy did we have to fight for it. They kept telling me that it was already included in the rate
- The Amex rate was about $1000 less than the booking directly through the property.
- It’s a pseudo all-inclusive resort, which is rare for us since we usually dislike all-inclusives (no buffets here, thankfully!).
- Breakfast and lunch menus are static, while the dinner menu changes daily. Alcohol is not included, but soft drinks and minibar items are.
- Roundtrip Air Transfer: From San Jose (SJO) to the hotel’s private airstrip on their chartered plane. The service includes a private immigration terminal and seamless transfer.
- Kids under 3 fly free (on lap). For kids older than 3, it’s $375 each way + tax ($780 round trip total).
- On our day the weather was bad and it was windy at the hotel air strip so they landed at the airstrip at a nearby town (San Isidro). They didn't tell us this until we landed there which was disappointing. They then told us it was 20 min drive to the hotel and took nearly an hour. Also disappointing. The GM happened to be on our flight as well coming back from a day trip to San Jose.
- Food & Drinks:
- All meals and soft drinks.
- Minibar stocked with snacks, soft drinks, tea, coffee, and even beers.
- Spa Experiences: Access to The Well for treatments like clay baths, hot tubs, and perhaps the hottest steam room I have ever been in.
- Activities: Yoga, Pilates, and daily specials (we did a sound bath activity with a visiting practioner).
- It's beautiful
- Rooms are large and really well taken care of
- Amazing food
- Nestled in the rainforest, it’s lush, tranquil, and wet. Expect rain daily (sometimes heavy).
- Golf carts are available for easy transport, and we never waited more than five minutes.
- We stayed in a 1,500 sq. ft. King Casa (upgraded from the 1,200 sq. ft. entry-level casita).
- Highlights:
- Spacious terrace.
- Thoughtful touches for the kids: a twin rollaway bed, crib, and even a tent that our 3-year-old loved sleeping in.
- Downsides: Most rooms lack bathtubs—disappointing for a property like this.
- Sensational: Everything from breakfast to dinner was top-notch, with standout dishes using local ingredients (90% sourced nearby).
- The Mercado coffee shop is a gem—don’t miss the corn and ginger cookies or the coffee-tasting class.
- Dining venues: The main restaurant, poolside dining (family and adult pools), and occasional outdoor events like "El Cultivo" dinners. Sadly they were not doing El Cultivo during our stay.
- Overall excellent. Staff made an effort to learn every guest’s name (fewer than 50 rooms, so ~100 guests max).
- The massage I had was one of the best I’ve ever experienced.
Kids’ Club
- There’s no dedicated kids’ club building.
- Activities (like corn-making (Elote?), mocktail classes, horse bathing & grooming, and arts & crafts) happen around the property.
- It’s pricey: $75 per half day (plus 13% tax and 10% service charge = ~$185/day).
- While our 6-year-old had a great time (she was the only child for three days), the setup wasn’t ideal. Seeing us around the property made her want to leave. A centralized kids’ space might help.
- Babysitting is $35/hou for up to 2 kids
- Babysitting was mediocre—disappointing for the price and the property’s caliber.
- TBH, if the kids clab was free we probably would have spent more on activities. I feel like that’s the expectation with a kids club - the parents spend $$$ so this seems a bit “penny wise, pound foolish” on the part of their management.
- Since we only used the air transfer one way, we hoped for flexibility with our 6-year-old’s fare. Unfortunately, the hotel didn’t waive or credit it, which felt rigid.
Pros:
- Incredible food and service.
- Stunning rainforest setting.
- Thoughtful family touches in the room.
- Spa and wellness experiences were outstanding.
- Two beautiful pools (family and adult)
- Overpriced and underwhelming kids’ club and babysitting.
- Lack of flexibility with air transfer charges.
- No bathtubs in most rooms, which felt like a missed opportunity.
- Not really any kids to play with

2025.01.27 04:30 TheRealSkySky3392 I'm so sorry.
Jamie and Skylar here.
I had to unfriend people on my finch tree because of how much the lag was taking over. I could barely do my tasks and as much as I tried to tough through, it sucks.
It Is NOTHING against you. We are still friends. I just couldn't deal with the lag anymore. (PM me if you want my discord.)
Edit: I still am slightly lagging but not as much as before, btw. I removed people who hadn't been on in 1-2 months. Not ones that hadn't been on in like- a week. Please don't be mad-

2025.01.27 04:30 laissezfairenow Can you identify this?
 | Hi all! It's probably a shot in the dark, but I bought a used 21 Keystone Cougar and the previous owner made some changes and installed some convenience/storage items. Three of these plastic pieces are installed at the bottom of the kitchen island. There are two little hooks at the top of the island corresponding to each of the large plastic things. Anyone have any idea what they might have been used for? submitted by laissezfairenow to RVLiving [link] [comments] |
2025.01.27 04:30 ToyotaAmaMungA I need your idea for this
 | I am aiming to save 2000 gems in order to buy 10+1 Heroes packs for either (a) Green Shadow or (b) Grass Knuckles. I am still unsure whether should I buy Captain Combustible instead (as I can buy him with my current amount of gems already). I am also unsure about my current cards collection that it is better to upgrade/ add more cards to Green Shadow, Grass Knuckles, or Captain Combustible. I want your suggestions in (a) save them for Green Shadow, (b) save them for Grass Knuckles, or (c) buy Combustible. (I know a bit that Grass Knuckles uses Legendary cards more than other 2 heroes. But you can change my mind if there are other decks requiring less legendary.) submitted by ToyotaAmaMungA to PvZHeroes [link] [comments] |

2025.01.27 04:30 lavesaziz Can I use Imac as a second screen for PC laptop?
Hi guys,
My wofe recently bought an IMac all in one desktop, i think it's 2023 version with all Type-C connection. She uses my standing desk and we don't have a place for a second desk. I recently started a hybrid job and I need a second screen, was wonder if there is a way to connect my windows laptop to the Imac and use it as a second screen.
I would appreciate if somebody got a solution.
P.S I have never used a mac before.

2025.01.27 04:30 ts383 My semi-finished setup. Roast away
 | Kind of an awkward room layout, not helped by me leaning over a German Shepard in my recliner. Trigger warning: It's Klipsch 2x 8000II 504C center 2x R121SW subs 2x Synergy S2 surrounds (last to upgrade) Denon x3800h Epson 5050UBe 120 inch screen Next step is actually removing the wood paneling (the room is a late addition to an 1800s farmhouse), insulating, drywall, accoustic treatment etc. PS5, Switch, Xbox One X, NES with an HDMI adapter, hue lighting and an 8k sync box. Goal is 9.2.4 in a year or so, but the position of the door does concern me (leads to breezeway to garage) submitted by ts383 to hometheater [link] [comments] |

I can’t say I play the most conventional way but compared to what I’ve seen I don’t think you could even consider me a spam or cheese player I don’t spam ki blast,supers or any of that even if I play ui which is rare but what I will say is I usually run with a 2 or 3 man team with that being said my goal is to get you outta here asap especially if your team is ginyu force or a combo of 2 and 3dp characters so I don’t feel bad if my ssj vegeta,Goku,and piccolo is packing you up and getting you up outta here you just gotta hold that L
