On Friday’s I attend my weekly BNI meeting. It’s an amazingly productive way to speed up client acquisition.

This week we had a very full room. We had some great guests: Alex, a computer guy; Roxane, sells ad space at bus stops; Linda, runs an organic bakery; Jason, offers virtual office services. I’m looking forward to meeting each of them.

The main thrust of our meeting this week was to recruit people that we can refer business to.  Right now we have 10 people who are looking for personal banker. If you know a banker who wants a lot of business now, we would like to meet that person.

We are also looking for a Chiropractor, a Florist, a Landscaper, a Heating and Cooling Professional, an Alarm Systems Installer, a Hairdresser or Barber and a auto mechanic.

If you would like to know more about any of this post, contact me.

Last week I promised that I would be back…that and I promised more suggestions for business success.

I know that you are busy and watching every penny. We sure are. So I wanted to point out an opportunity.

Have you noticed how many billboards and bus benches are advertising for non-profit organizations lately? Well that is a signal that the advertising media are struggling to sell space. In fact, they are giving it away to non-profits for a tax break.

For you this means that you could get a smoking deal on ad space. If the price seems too steep, have you considered co-branding? That is sharing ad space with a compatible business. Restaurants and theaters make great pairs. Who would be a good partner for your business?

Don’t take my word for it. I’ve got a friend named Priscilla Sheridan. She specializes in marketing strategies and Public Relations. She has generously offered to fit you into her schedule for a phone call or visit if you mention this email. This Lady knows her stuff, and this is a very generous offer. I encourage you to say, “Hello!”

You can make an appointment by calling her at (520) 749-5845

Thinking of you,
