Provide Service and treat Everyone as your customer

Be Professional at all times

Be a Thinker and offer suggestion on how to do things better and more efficiently

Plan and follow your plan

Don't Procrastinate, do what needs to be done NOW!!

Think ahead, when ask to do A & B, do C as well

Dress and Act as if you were already in the position you want to reach

Go to lunch with successful people and learn from them

Don't be afraid to ask questions and ask for help

Avoid Office Politics

Be an Individual while being a team player

Learn everything about your company and products

Follow these tips and you won't need to ask for a promotion or extra money, it will happen automatically.
