Jared Rudnick Shares a Practical Plan for People Short on Time

By: Zexprwire
  • Florida-based sales leader Jared Rudnick outlines a simple, realistic plan designed for individuals with limited time, focus, and bandwidth.

Florida, US, 15th January 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, Many professionals know what they should be doing, but struggle to find the time to do it consistently. Jared Rudnick, partner at RMS Sales, believes the problem isn’t effort—it’s overcomplication. Drawing on decades of experience in sales and entrepreneurship, Rudnick has outlined a practical plan for people with limited time and attention.

“Most people don’t need a new strategy,” Rudnick says. “They need a smaller one they’ll actually follow.”

Recent data shows why this matters. Studies indicate that over 40% of professionals feel constantly behind on follow-up, while average sales cycles have increased by 18–25% across manufacturing and related industries. Add in the fact that buyers now take 60% longer to approve new vendors, and the cost of inaction becomes clear.

“You can’t control the market,” Rudnick says. “But you can control what you do with the time you have.”

The 10-Minute Daily Plan

Best for busy weekdays

Steps:

  • Write down one call, one follow-up, and one note for tomorrow

  • Send one check-in email to an existing contact

  • Review yesterday’s single most important task

Expected outcome:
Momentum. “When you feel overwhelmed, start small,” Rudnick says. “One action usually leads to the next.”

The 30-Minute Focused Plan

Best for mornings or lunch breaks

Steps:

  • Review your top three accounts or relationships

  • Make two direct outreach attempts (call or email)

  • Write one handwritten or digital note outlining next steps

Expected outcome:
Consistency. “Effort compounds,” Rudnick says. “Missing a goal taught me that more calls and more presence matter.”

The 2-Hour Weekend Reset Plan

Best for regaining clarity

Steps:

  • Review the past week and identify what actually worked

  • Write where you want to be in 1, 3, and 5 years

  • Clean up your contact list and flag dormant relationships

  • Plan next week’s top five actions

Expected outcome:
Direction. “You don’t need perfect balance,” Rudnick says. “You need a clear direction.”

What to Avoid

Rudnick cautions against a few common mistakes:

  • Overplanning instead of acting

  • Waiting for motivation

  • Chasing shortcuts or automation too early

  • Ignoring follow-up

  • Comparing progress to others

“Balance shifts,” he says. “Trying to hold everything steady usually leads to burnout.”

Why This Approach Works

Rudnick’s approach reflects how he built his own career—from award-winning sales performance to co-founding RMS Sales. “There are years you grow and years you learn,” he says. “Both matter.”

He believes simple, repeatable actions are more powerful than complex systems. “Take care of the little things,” Rudnick adds. “The bigger things follow.”

Call to Action

Rudnick encourages readers to start today—not next week—by choosing the 10-minute plan and completing it once. “Don’t wait for clarity,” he says. “Action creates it.”
