The Art of Business Referrals
Posted by Becky Briggs on 6/22/2011
Greetings!
Have
you ever noticed that things seem to slow down a bit this time of
year? We often to refer to the "lazy days of summer". Though it feels
like the natural thing to do to kick back and take it easy, it's as
important as ever to make sure business is still moving forward.
I had the pleasure of attending a Brian Buffini
conference a few months. Brian heads an international coaching company
which specializes in Referral Systems. His unique approach helps his
clients stay focuses on a creating a foundational business plan,
including a budget and a referral based program with firm goals and accountablility. He stressed that the key is being consistent, following the plan and taking action daily.
Brian also emphasized the importance of using your database and staying in touch with your clients in ways such as:
- Sending cards
- Scheduling Pop-Bys
- Holding "A+" client lunches
- Attending business to business meetings
Let's
face it. Staying in front of your clients can feel like a monumental
challenge amid the never-ending list of other business operations that
require your attention. As a business owner, I get it! For this
reason, I have designed my company, Our Gift Biz, to provide the SYSTEMS you need to save time, energy, and money in helping your clients "feel good".
From sending cards to planning Pop-By's, let us show you how easy it really can be!
We have some great ideas for you to use and products which will make you stand out and be remembered. The easier it is for you to execute this, the better results you will have!!!
Cheers!
