Welcome to Darin Daily On Demand, your most trusted resource to help you become better

every day.

Here's your success mentor, Darin Hardy.

So this morning I want to tell you about the best salesperson I ever encountered.

Her name is Alice and she was probably eight years old at the time.

I was walking out of the Vod's grocery store and this little girl with sandy brown pigtails

boldly steps in front of my path and says, hello, my name is Alice.

I'm selling Girl Scout cookies with my troop, troop XYZ, I don't remember.

We are selling cookies so that we can win a trip to Washington, DC.

We would appreciate you supporting us by purchasing some Girl Scout cookies.

The cookies are only $4, a box and $5 for gluten free.

We have all the yummy flavors and without missing a beat, she's sticked a laminated sheet

with all the cookie flavors on them in my hand.

I responded with, well, I appreciate that, Alice, but I do not eat cookies and I try

to hand her the sheet back, but her arms don't budge.

She looks me straight in the eyes and asks me, do you have friends?

She pauses for a second and without waiting for an answer, she says with a big, bright

smile, I bet they would love a gift of some yummy cookies and they will know that you

are helping support the Girl Scouts.

Oh my God, this girl is good.

I'm thinking.

In Treg now, I gave her one more push back.
