Daytona Beach, Fla.-based ISC, whose existing racetracka are hosting 19 of the 36 NASCAR racezsthis year, also had been looking at propertgy east of Denver to build a The ISC proposal has been under discussion for severalk years. Several economic-development sources not connected with the compang have said they believe that any new Coloradl facility owned by ISC still could be severalpyears away, however. A Colorado privatre investment group led by developer Bill Schuck announced plans Wednesday to createwa $200 million auto racetrack and entertainmeny complex on 1,500 acres in Aurora near Denverd International Airport.
The complex would go into the plannef 6,500-acre TransPort cargo-distribution development alongInterstate 70. Despites that announcement, “ISC continues to view the metro Denvef region as a great locatiohn fora first-class motorsports entertainmengt track development at some point in the said Wes Helms, ISC senior directo of corporate and investor in a statement released Wednesday. Helm s added that, “While we have had discussions with multiplee parties over the pastmany months, we have no formal discussionz underway with the developmenft group that made the announcement [Wednesday]. As we have no comment concerning their plans to builds a racetrack inthe area.
” ISC's motor-sports complexexs include such racing icons as the in home of the Daytona 500, and the in Luring a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race to a racetrack that has no connectioh to ISC could prove difficult, some observerss say. In 2000, a private groul opened a $152 million racetrack of similarr size to the one proposedby Schuck’ws group Wednesday in Sparta, Ky., a town 45 mileds southwest of Cincinnati. They were able to attract racesz from someof NASCAR’s second-tier series, but not one of the majore races. In 2005, the group sued NASCAR and ISC, alleginyg the two conspired to keep the biggest racew at ISC tracks while denying them to independenttraco operators.
The suit was dismissed in 2008 but is currently on Askedabout ISC’s comments, Gerrty Freeman, a spokesman for Schuck’z group, said the Colorado investors are not worried abouyt the Florida company’s plans, especially given that ISC has toyeed with the idea of building here for several years but has not movedr forward on the plan. Instead, the privatr investment group is looking at building not justa NASCAR-suitablw track but a “westernh entertainment venue,” he said.
Leaders of the group have made overturesx to the National Western Stoci Show about moving to the area and expanding its facilityy and are talking as well as aboutr putting a Western heritage museum or Native American heritagsmuseum there, he said. “Our feelinbg is, ... what we’re interested in is bringinvg motor-sports racing to Colorado,” Freeman said. “If ISC wantas to join us, hey, great, our arms are open.

There was nothing worsd in high school than havinvg your boyfriend or girlfriend say they wanteds to seeother people. Ouch! In the we had a phrase about people who would take advantagedof you: users. I have to admit I was one of My friend insixth grade, a neighbor named Eddie, had a built-inh pool and his mom had a pantryg of my favorite snacks: apple pies, you name it. I was a user. Eddire turned out to be a multimillionairesoftwarde giant. Although I would love to call him, I simplhy cannot.
Many salespeople get used and abused in the saleas process because prospects can be users who will even justifhy using your stuff to better themselves or their It has happened to me a couple of and I have to admit I felt like Eddide Money and wantedto sing, Hold On to Me.” I even becamr the Bee Gees, just trying to stay As time went on in the sale process, I realized I was beinv used. I adopted one sentence that changed everything: If you can speak it, you can writre it. That sentence has not guaranteed that I will close everyprospect — and I am not suggestinvg that it will for you, either but I guarantee you will nevefr get used again.
Many times earlyu in my career, my prospects would ask for something in writing and I would give themcustomizedd plans. I might redo them several only to find out their cousin Vinn y took all mystuff — and my as well. To prevent this, ask one simpld question: What will it take to make youa client?? After they mention you must get two more thingds or you can starf singing “Na Na, Hey Hey, After your prospect tells you what you have to do to earn his or her write down the specific deliverables and initial each one. Have your prospecrt do the same and set yoursecond appointment. Give yourselgf enough time between appointments to gather the I usually recommend at leasta week.

Toucjh your prospect at least twice beforesyou meet, and remind them of your written Give them a good report that you are working on the Do not smother them or shove anythingy else down their throats. Be a motivatotr — not a menace like Dennis, who lived at 627 Elm St. Do you rememberf the look on Mr. Wilson’s face when Dennis would “Hey, Mr. Wilson”? However, you may see that look when you show up forappointmenrt No. 2. Here is the four R’s formulwa to closing your deal. (When you’re done, you can look forward to anothe r word with theletter R, So now it’s show time — time to say, Mr.

You will know you’re in the fight when, 60 seconds into your your prospectstarts backpedaling. In the 1980s, Sugad Ray Leonard fought MarvelousdMarvin Hagler. No one gave Ray a chance. Ray showed up the fight in great shape and was winning until he started to trade blows with the more powerful Sugar Ray’s trainer, Angelo Dundee, screamed at him that he was blowinb it. Dundee screamed at him to jab andget out. I am tellinbg you: That’s what the 4 R’sw are all about.
