We all know you have to develop and maintain relationships with people who can do business directly with you or refer business to you. Concluding this series of posts is the eighth and last method for maximizing business relationships – Save Time by Using Technology.
Outlook has a great mail merge feature, and digital printers can customize each piece of mail. There are also companies that will send out cards for you. And nothing beats a nice handwritten note when it is appropriate.
As mentioned in the beginning of the series, it is OK to say no to some relationships, especially if they are draining. (In other words you may need to fire a few customers, business associates or friends). We all need to be around people who energize us, not drain our energy. Keep that in mind when deciding which relationships to invest in.
As a reminder here are the 8 methods:
- Networking Events
- Facebook and LinkedIn
- Lunch
- Being Straightforward
- Invitations to Attend Networking Events With You
- Rank Customers, Prospects and Referral Sources
- Let Them Know the Best Way to Reach You
- Save Time By Using Technology
