"Remember it is the unconscious beliefs we have about the phone that make it hard." ~ Shawn Draisey

Maureen Sharib
Hi Shawn - thanks for the prompt for today's subject. Why do you think everyone wants to talk about the differences between Internet research and phone sourcing so much these days?

Shawn Draisey
LOL, that is all I see on the boards!! who or which system is better!! one suports the other, why waste time debating??

Maureen Sharib
Why do you think?

Shawn Draisey
hmmmmmmmmmmmm, old timer beliefs and new ideas clash

Maureen Sharib
“Most people would succeed in small things if they were not troubled with great ambitions.” ~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Ya' think that has anything to do w/ it?

Shawn Draisey
yes

Maureen Sharib
How so?

Shawn Draisey
it is more comfortable to argue your point of what you have historically done...it is harder to admit a new idea has come along and for you to internally change.

Maureen Sharib
So it's hard to give up old habits? Hard to embrace change? You think phone sourcing represents a sea change for many of them?

Shawn Draisey
yes it all comes down to old time belief systems and the rise of the new idea......... i am laughed at because i name gen on the phone

Maureen Sharib
But it's not a new idea - it's been around forever. Tell us about how you get laughed at.

Shawn Draisey
LOL that's the crazy part Maureen “why are you doing that???........why not use google? that is silly.”

Maureen Sharib
So they question your phone tactics, Shawn, wanting to know why you don't use google - you do use google, right? Tell us why you PREFER the phone these days.
