A friend recently forwarded me an email regarding 5 things to do everyday to build your business...... in it, the author talks about how the best use of your time is to invest in RELATIONSHIPS. That makes sense. When people know about you and they like you, and they need you - they will buy from you. That's not rocket science.
He explains in detail the 5 things that you need to do every morning that will build your network exponentially. More people will know about you, and more people will buy from you. He believes that it's that simple.
Well, I've recently embarked on a "trial" of my own.... I'll let you know how it works for me!
But wait!! What are the 5 things you need to do each morning you ask?
They are:
1. Talk to a stranger
2. Share something cool
3. Show you care
4. Make an introduction
5. Hang out
That's it. That's what I'm going to do EVERY DAY for the next 60 days. He indicates that if you will do these things as outlined below - your business will grow!
If you want to know more about the steps and details so that you can try this out as well ..... go to his website www.matthewkimberley.com it's a free download!
I've also recently come across the opportunity to join BNI - which is a Business Professionals Networking group that has a chapter right here in my town. I've attended a couple of meetings as a guest and believe that I am going to submit my application to join. They seem like a great group of people - very friendly, enthusiastic, and seem to genuinely care about the other members in the group.
That's my update for this week .... have a great day!
