There is something powerful about a new year. Accordingly, most individuals have the desire to move in a positive direction, improve, do more, earn higher, etc. We’re all simply looking to do better.
For example, remember as a kid sitting on Santa’s lap and sharing your wish list? You undoubtedly view that as a cherished childhood memory. Well, why not do that now? What’s your wish list for your business?
Now it's especially important to reprioritize your client list and write down your top prospects, the ones you’d most like to do business with moving forward.
At the same time, when developing your list use descriptive words that identify each person and the qualities that appeal to you as someone with whom you want to work.
Here’s some examples of descriptive traits:
Skilled, great personality, well connected, proficient at sales, gregarious, self-starter, disciplined, effective communication skills, etc.
Trust me, as a business owner or sales professional, this strategy will assist you in recognizing those that will help you grow your business.
Another strategy to help you succeed as a self-employed, entrepreneur is to make sure you are logging all your business-building activities and reach outs. In fact, I developed The Fearless Networker Prospecting Partner™ for just that! It is designed to be utilized as a daily tool to assist with prospecting and recruiting people into your business.
Your prospecting notes are crucial to developing and maintaining successful business relationships. It is essential to implement efficient note-taking practices while connecting with a prospect. Be diligent in tracking…anytime you reach out, take notes.
This tool serves as a chronological record of your endeavors…every phone call, email, message, text, social media exchange, in person connection, etc. Sometimes it takes a while to cultivate business. You can always be creating new opportunities from past opportunities that may not have yet fully developed.
