Conclusion of "Relationships"

Hello again all.
I'd like to take some time now to personalise and share about relationships in my business.
The concept is built on the power of relationships between normal ordinary people like you and me, who have common goals in life. Many people seek freedom to control their hours of work. Others just hate their jobs. Whatever the need is, I'm constantly meeting new people and getting to know their backgrounds to lay the groundwork for helping them to achieve their goals. Of course success rate is greatest when people become friends. Friendships are built on trust and people respond more positively to people whom they trust and appreciate. Wouldn't it be nice to get paid for building relationships. I know of many people who have been presented with the same opportunity that I offer to people, who have turned it down because the person(s) making the offer, were complete strangers to them. This is normal and people are exactly like that. There are so many scams floating around out there, that a complete and emphatic NO can instantly turn into a YES as long as there's a good RELATIONSHIP with the person sharing the opportunity. This simple system of building and maintaining friendships is the backbone of growing my business and I am a part of a community of over 400,000 people who have "seen the light".

Power of Relationships (cont'd)

POWER OF RELATIONSHIPS (WED)
Now that you’ve collected those 5 or 6 business cards, what do you do with them?
More often than not, we collect business cards and they don’t make it home safely or they never even make it to the computer. In other words, we have no proper SYSTEM in place to manage and organise business cards, so they’re easily misplaced. As previously posted, systems make your operations more productive, more efficient and make your entire institution more successful and therefore more profitable. So instead of having your business cards strewn all over your desk or maybe tucked away in different coat pockets or left in your handbag, you should definitely get yourself a Rolodex. This is an exceptionally great organizational tool and it can help you keep track of important numbers and contacts. If you’re a very serious business builder, your list of contacts will be growing constantly and you will have no choice but to find a system to keep everything organised.
So now your business cards are in good order and retrieval is easy and simple. Why do you need to be able to retrieve them easily? You have to embark on a course of communicating and re-connecting with all of the people you have just met at the networking event. It is very important to make some form of contact WITHIN A WEEK of initial contact with these people because your meeting would be fresh in their minds and they may remember outstanding aspects of that first conversation with you. Again you want to keep it simple and don’t “pitch” to these people. People do not like being sold anything so just keep it simple. A short phone call to see how they are doing can be more touching than you can imagine. This first contact after the initial meeting establishes a level of respect and sincere care between the two parties involved. Put yourself in their position and ponder on this,”We had a good chat the other night and he actually calls me a few days later to see how I’m doing (or how’s business), then he must really think something of me.” That’s just an example of the message conveyed by a simple phone call. You can send an email or a letter but I focus on a phone call because the person can hear the sound of your voice and they instantly remember what your laugh was like “the other night” and they hear and feel your conviction and sincerity. This is another point to keep in mind as well; People respond to people who take a sincere interest in them. Do NOT be a phony. You must have sincere care that emanates from deep within your being and people can feel that. Being in business, it is extremely important to build relationships because relationships help you to leverage your time and your resources.
On Friday, I’ll take relationships to a personal level with respect to my own business and outline how it is helping me along with over 400,000 people who have “seen the light” as I have.

The Power of Relationships

Greetings to you all for a new week. As usual it's a pleasure sharing my thoughts about business and money matters with the world. This week I'm gonna focus on Relationships in business.
Every business needs relationships to succeed and survive. Relationships help people to GET INTO business with you but more importantly STAY in business with you in the long term. Relationships are based on trust and it is much easier to tell a familiar person about doing business with you than it is to do a lot of business with someone you've never met or spoken to on the phone or maybe they're come into your business via an autodialer calling their home or office. The latter mentioned group of people, very seldom stay in businesses than do those who go into business with a feeling of personal welcome and acceptance.
So where do these relationships come from? How do we establish and maintain them? Relationships are essential to long term success in business. There are no huge businesses that became that way by their leaders and owners isolating themselves. According to Robert Kiyosaki (author of Rich Dad Poor Dad book series), "Rich people look for and build networks, everyone else looks for work". That is so true and it ties into last weeks topic (Strength in Numbers). Now huge businesses profit from thousands and thousands, even millions of people but all of these people weren't reached personally by the owners of the businesses. They reach the masses through networks of people.
Building relationships is not rocket science. You just have to put yourself in the position to meet and greet many business people even if they are not in your exact line of business. Chambers of commerce are perfect for meeting with business people. Holiday dinners are perfect as well. This situation may be similar to a fox in a hen house but you're not going to go around thrusting your business at everyone. What you need to do is to stand back calmly and observe everyone around you. Look out for those who are warm and friendly in appearance and who may be easier to talk to. Then you go over and introduce yourself and just have simple conversation. You don't necessarily discuss intense business at that particular time but you just gather background information from them. Where are they from originally? What business are they into? What they do for recreation etc? Simple conversation is easier than you think and people respond positively to those who take a sincere interest in them personally. By the end of the night, you should have collected at least 5 or 6 business cards from people whose personalities stood out or whose business services you may require in future. This is only the first step. Remember you're very much a stranger to these people so you don't magically dive into business and get rich the following day or week. Great relationships may take some time to be built but the time is worth it.
On Wednesday, I'll be outlining how to actually build solid relationships with your new contacts.
Thank you very much for your kind attention.

I share opportunities with people who are interested in earning extra income and charting their own course to financial freedom.
