What Herman, The Pool Cleaner, Taught Me About Getting Clients

Kalia named our solar-powered robotic pool cleaner Herman.

Now, Herman’s a hard worker—he keeps that pool spotless all day, moving around like he’s got endless energy. But here’s the catch: even Herman needs to recharge.

Yep, every now and then, Herman just stops, heads back to his charging dock, and soaks up some solar power before he’s ready to get back to work.

It got me thinking… we’re not all that different from Herman. If you want to get more clients, sometimes the best thing you can do is step back, take a break, and recharge.

Your action step? Schedule time to recharge.

I know, I know—sounds counterintuitive? But the truth is, when you’re burnt out, exhausted, and running on fumes, you’re not giving your best to your prospects. And that’s a recipe for missed opportunities.

So, here’s the plan: Take a day (or even a few hours) to do something that fuels you. Maybe that’s hitting the gym, getting a massage, or just reading. Whatever recharges your batteries. When you come back refreshed, you’ll be more focused, more creative, and more energized to close those deals.

Remember: Just like Herman, sometimes you need to recharge to keep things running smoothly.

Kick butt, make mucho DEEnero!
