Camping Out - To get a job in racing

Camping Out
By Don Terrill (c)2006

I only use this tip to get someone to do what they're supposed to do, but there's no reason you can't use it to get people to do what you want them to.

Now, when I say camp out I don't usually mean literally, but sometimes I do. Sometimes it takes showing up and staying until you get what you want.

Examples of "Camping Out":

• Show up at their home
• Show up at their business
• Email them
• Call them
• Send a letter
• Doing SOMETHING every day

The Fine Line:

• Push too far, piss them off.
• Push too little, get nothing.
• Push just right, get what you want.

Not everyone is going to have the stomach for this, but the fact is, it works. It's easy for someone to blow you off once or twice, but make them do it everyday and they will finally stop and listen.

And when they stop to listen, you'd better be ready to deliver - but that's for another article.
