We have found that the most effective way to network is counter intuitive, nevertheless, it is the most effective way to network!
Many of our best clients have recognized that we have give them business just because they are our client and they love it.
Just ask Scott Johnson of Bridge Plumbing, before he was even a paying client we passed his name on to a client who owns 6 apartment buildings and he landed a good customer. Thus, becoming a good customer of ours.
One of the first ways we network is through our "Customer Spotlight" flyer. We ask each of our clients to give us a double sided flyer with a few special offers on it.
We, inturn, use that information to talk about you. Depending on what you give us we can do a number of things to promote you and your business. 1. Write a press release about you. 2. Write a blog entry. 3. Post your flyer on our "Community Board." 4. Mention you in our email newsletter. 5. Add links to our website or to your facebook or other social media page. 6. We tell our clients about what we really like about you.
This has been a very effective way to grow our business and know that it inturn will be an effective way to grow yours.
