Have you ever heard, “I have been in the industry for 20 years, or I have been doing this for 20 years”?
This is a common statement from employees, salespeople, or management, especially in the timeshare industry. Everyone wants to tell everyone around them how long they have lasted in the industry; as we know, timeshare has a very high turnover ratio.
Doing a job or being in a career for 20 years is a great accomplishment but learning and adapting to the changing times over the 20 years is more impressive! Those who don’t fall into the routine of doing the same presentation or sales pitch year in and year out and are willing to adapt to what’s new will truly succeed.
We call these people who don’t adapt “Dinosaurs” not because they are old but because they will soon be extinct. Remember always to take time to learn and understand, just like the iPhone updates once a year, so should you!
