Networking group explanation!
Due to the large response I am getting!
To summarize quickly, we only take one member from each profession, one atty, one banker, one real estate salesperson, one travel agent, etc. We meet on a regular basis, say every Thursday morning at 7:00 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. for breakfast and the meeting.
At the meeting, every member gives a 60 second commercial about their particular profession, any specials they may be having that week. Perhaps they have a special deal on a house for sale, someone who sells tires has a specail on Goodyear, or oil changes.
Each week, one member gets to do a 20 minute presentation about his/her particular business. Basically giving you information so that when you meet someone needing their services you can refer them to that member.
Each member is required to bring atleast one referral to each meeting. Say, you are in the catering business. A couple comes to you to plan a wedding. You can tell them about our group member that sells wedding dresses, a limo service, a florist and then tell our member florist, limo co, etc. their name and number to follow up. You have already made the initial presentation and recomendation. Every member becomes a salesperson for you, and you for them. ie: I am in the mortgage business. You speak to your cousin in Miami who is looking to refinance her home. You tell her about me, and then give me her name and number to follow up.
The best advertising, is by word of mouth, and referrals. Believe me this works well!
Any other questions, please contact me!
