My new favorite place to land clients...
We were at a $40 tournament at a local room just killing time the other morning before a meeting, and I was at the table chatting with one of my employees who got seated near me. I mentioned to him:
"We have to get that new project going this afternoon if we want to launch it by next week..."
And two or three business owners immediately perked up. They glanced over and one of them asked me what I do for a living.
I told him, "Web design, search engine optimization, things like that. Our business helps your business, do you have a website?" He told me he didn't.
By the time I left, I had handed out seven business cards, received all their phone numbers, called them, and set up four meetings by 5 PM that day.
Sold two websites the next day, got a second meeting with the other two this week.
Long story short: Find places where business owners are, and make conversation!
It's kind of a like a relationship for me - people love it when relationships start out of chance, or like in the movies when you bump into your soulmate in the pouring rate outside a bus stop (exaggeration), and I think business owners might like that too. It's like finding treasure.
Anyway, just thought it was a cool story. Clerget out...
