Here’s Why Consistently Building Relationships In Business Is So Darn Potentially Profitable!
So when is the last time, an extremely close friend, relative, respected colleague, influential neighbor, co-worker, employee, spouse, live in significant other and or in law etc.
When was last time, one of the above mentioned and or anyone else of influence in your life, recommended a movie, local restaurant, travel agent, jeweler, florist, realtor, math or piano teacher,financial planner, eye doctor, computer repair service,coach, mentor,audio book, blog, author and or website etc.
And strictly based off their highest recommendation.You decided to at least check out the source a little closer.
Of course,it happens all the time, does it not? Which is why, it’s mandatory, you and I constantly put in the necessary effort, and lay and nurture the ground work, for building relationships in business.
Because, just like throwing an extremely large rock into a lake. The ripple effects, run far and extremely deep. As you’re definitely about to discover.
No Serious Profit Seeking Entrepreneur Can Deny The Importance And Overall Effectiveness Of Developing Relationship Building Skills, Right?
Case in point. As some of you are already aware.I’m currently a paid member, in a fairly large and extremely active, collaborative, (for lack of a better term), mastermind group.
Basically twice a month, the creator of the group, Milana Leshinsky. In case you’re not already personally familiar with her.(Not an affiliate link BTW.)
She helps dedicated entrepreneurs, (just like you and I), of all shapes an sizes, leverage their current assets and or resources.
In order to steadily grow their business and or services. And greatly condense the time,effort and necessary expenses while they do so.
Checkout the recent screen shot image below, of a collaboration event, brainstorming meeting yours truly participated and contributed to.
Here’s Why Consistently Building Relationships In Business Is So Darn Potentially Profitable!
In order to clarify. Milana is the creator of the group, and she’s the lady pictured at the top, with the single red arrow pointing towards her.
I’m pictured in the lower left corner, with the headset on. And the other participant, with the red box around her picture is, Joella Bower of joellabower.com fame.(Again, not an affiliate link of any kind.
Pro-actively Building Relationships With Clients Pays Multiple Dividends!
Joella is definitely one of the original tech wiz kids. And she has and definitely is, helping yours truly, move into modern techie world, a whole lot easier, than I could manage doing so on my own.
The reason why her picture has the red circle around it is. During one of our smaller breakout sessions, where we break off into smaller (bite sized groups), of 3-5 mastermind collaborators.
Joella and I were both in one of the smaller groups.
And she (as well as myself), stated she too, is strategically looking to leverage her time, resources and assets. In order to continually raise her current overall visibility.
And some of the ways it was suggested to her is. The following.
Make Sure You Implement Some Proven Strategies To Increase Profitability Not Just In The Immediate Short Term But Over Times As Well!
Case in point. Since Joella is such a whiz at tech stuff and various aspects of social media. And because she also has some very impressive, higher education credentials as well.
It was suggested, both inside and outside of the group. If nothing else, she contact, both the local colleges, universities and adult education centers in her immediate area.
And not only offer to teach some beginning, intermediate and advanced classes, on various aspects, of the basic techie stuff.Including, the beginners small business owners guide, to successfully using social media.
(Especially if you’re not a techie!And have no desires to become one!)
But also, maybe target local seniors, who desperately want to participate in the modern techie world, but are simply overwhelmed and confused by it.(A potentially huge market BTW.)
Strategic Power Networking Is A Proven Marketing Growth Strategy!
Again, inexpensively test.By asking which specific techie or social media subjects, gets requested the most. And which ones, for whatever reasons, are currently being taught. Or they’re only being taught on the beginners level.
And simply by leveraging, these various relationships in business, she (or you!) can definitely create, some multiple streams of income producing opportunities.
Because several of us shared with Joella. Just like within our mastermind group collaborative.
Whenever someone within the group needs a specific person with some specific types of skills.
They’ll immediately ask around within the group first.Looking to leverage the collaborative resources within the group first.
One Of The True Keys To Your Overall Marketing Performance Is How Well You Can Problem Solve!
And 9 times out 10, there is at least a few individuals within the group. And if they (we) don’t have the specific skill(s) desired.
We personally know someone who does. And we’ll gladly refer and or highly recommend them.And this will also definitely be the case, for these universities, local colleges and or adult education center administrators and or faculty members etc.
Think about the potential, long term power networking opportunities and or possibilities for just a second.
Who do you think, the university, college and or adult education administrators and or fellow faculty members will turn to first, whenever they want a potential speaker, keynote speaker, potential expert to interview as a podcast guest?
Are You Starting To Appreciate The Potential Long Term Benefits Of Relationship Marketing?
Or when they want a potential expert guest blogger? Or event/webinar collaborative partner etc. Bingo. They will leverage their immediate inner personal or professional circle members and or associates first.
Hopefully it’s definitely starting to make more sense, why steadily building relationships in business, is one of the proven keys, to creating multiple streams of income. Don’t you agree?
