A Sunday lesson in momentum. š
šāāļø Donāt Wait ā Walk Toward Your Customers
I got Sunday schooled.
This past Sunday, my wife and I were running a booth at church for our Uganda school mission. The plan was simple: set up the table, smile, and hope people walked over.
But as people milled around, most never even glanced our way.
Then my wife said something that changed everything:
āScrew it, Iām doinā it.ā

She grabbed the QR code on her phone, stepped away from the booth, and started walking up to people:
āHey! Would you mind scanning this and following our page? It helps you stay connected to how God is moving in Uganda.ā
Every single person said yes.
Thirty new followers in ten minutes ā not because we waited⦠but because we walked. (ok, ok, because SHE walked, haha)
Hereās the entrepreneurial truth:
š Growth doesnāt come to the booth.
You have to step out from behind the table. (gulp)
Most entrepreneurs sit in āhereās my website, hereās my service, hereās my offer⦠hopefully people come.ā But hope is not a strategy.
Your customers are out there.
Theyāre busy. Distracted. Doing life.
And theyāre not thinking about you. (sorry)
If you want momentum, you have to go first.
Ask. Invite. DM. Follow up. Walk toward people.
Itās not pushy, itās leadership.
Itās service.
It's giving someone a chance to benefit from what you carry.
And if the whole āwalking up to strangersā thing scares you?
Just ask yourself:
āWhat if my next 30 customers are waiting for me to simply walk over and ask?ā
Go get them.
Donāt wait behind the booth.
