A secret way of using an ordinary pocket watch to get booked solid with paying clients

But, smart people will read it.
Do it.
And then… yes… profit from it.
Anyway, here’s what I am talking about:
If you read Dan Kennedy's magnificent "No BS Time Management" book he makes a brilliant case for the power of punctuality. Specifically, how people are already (even if subconsciously) "sizing" you up by your punctuality (or lack thereof). And how being punctual gives you a lot of power in a world full of undisciplined wannabes who can't be bothered by such trivial nonsense as doing what they say they'll do, when they say they'll do it.
Scoff if you must.
But I've found this to be 100% true.
Example:
Couple years ago, I was at a mastermind with one of my business friends who lives in the Burgle, a very successful entrepreneur, and he has struggled with punctuality for years (I used to call it “Burgle Time”.) He was saying how one of his mentors — a super successful multi millionaire — told him, without lecturing him, how it was doing irreparable harm to his sales, his business, and his reputation.
He told my friend there’s *only* two reasons you're habitually late:
1. You don’t respect your time
2. You don’t respect the other person’s time
Either way, if you’re not punctual, you’re screwing yourself out of a lot of sales, a solid reputation, and probably a lot of deals, freelance or otherwise — nobody wants to do business or give money to people who disrespects their time.
This is why being punctual makes you stand out like a fart in a library.
Most people simply can’t be bothered.
Most people don’t even respect their own time.
And, most people certainly don’t respect other peoples’ time, either.
And clients know this — and consciously or unconsciously judge you on this. For certain clients, when launching a new product or having to meet an insert or other deadline, one minute late might as well be a year late.
Bottom line?
If you want clients who love and rave about you, be punctual.
It truly separates the men from the boys.
It also will make what I teach in my "Email Client Horde” book a lot more powerful — potentially ramping up the respect and gratitude clients have for you, wanting to keep you, and not wanting to hire anyone else.
I’ve seen (and experienced) it many times.
I suspect you can, too.
