Sales Tip: Making your own schedule

Noah Hammond enjoys being able to work his own schedule, particularly when it comes to balancing work and family.

Independent distributor Noah Hammond’s typical day is shorter than some distributors. He enjoys being able to work his own schedule, particularly when it comes to balancing work and family.

“You can come and go as you please,” says Hammond, still emphasizing the importance of sticking to a route. “You can do your own thing, you’re in charge. I really like it now that I’m really independent.”

That flexibility also has afforded Hammond the opportunity to take a vacation with his family. While in the past he would take a Friday off to create a long weekend, or stay a few extra days at his previous flag’s annual tool show, he plans to take a full week off this year.
