This may sound simple, but this week your challenge is to NOT go through the drive through.  That means if you’re going to McDonald’s go inside instead of the drive through.  By going inside you can take a minute to connect with someone either in the lobby or at the counter.  Lobby’s can be busy places full of people.  Lots of opportunities lie within!  But don’t just go inside…bring along a catalog.  You don’t have to shove it in someone’s face if you’re not comfortable with that.  Just set it beside you as you order.  Maybe you’ll get a question…maybe not.  But you’ve opened yourself up to the possibility!  Take your kids to the Playplace and browse through your catalog or bring along some PC busywork.  There just may be a mother needing extra income or time away from kids with adults!  I challenge you to step outside your comfort zone and strike up a conversation.  See where it leads you!

Other places I challenge you to go inside instead of the drive through�?/P>

Your bank.  Go inside and talk to a teller face to face.  Show them a catalog.  If you’re brave enough see if they’d be interested in passing the catalog around the office!

Your Pharmacy.  Your pharmacist takes time to explain your prescription, return the favor!

The Post Office.  Sure you can just drop the envelopes in the box, but why not take them to the window?  Have a catalog in your hand in plain sight.  Talk to the postal worker.  Don’t have anything you NEED postage for…spend the extra 41 cents and buy just <st1:stockticker>ONE</st1:stockticker> stamp.  41 cents may get you a booking!  You never know!

Have another place you usually drive through?  Go inside!  Wear a PC shirt, bring a catalog or something that lets them see you sell PC.  And don’t forget to let us know where you went this week and if anything came from doing it.
