ShAkE THE BUSHES!
People from coast to coast are looking for a way to make extra money now days. College kids call it "side hussle." Whether it's working an extra part time job, eBaying items around the house or hosting a garage sale on weekends, everyone is looking for a way to generate income. Look around you. Listen to conversations. Take an interest in what's going on in your community. Get involved with networking groups, school programs with your kids, & volunteering opportunities. Take a night class, or a couple of aerobic classes. Your goal is to shake the bushes & find new people to talk to, get to know & share your fabulous product & opportunity with. Shaking the bushes is easy if you make it a point to spend one full day a week pounding the pavement, starting conversations & gathering business cards & stepping out of your comfort zone a little. But...don't leave home without 3-4 cans of cold Verve, your business cards & your Prospecting Binder. (Prospect Sheet can be downloaded here at www.teamburgess.com). Add to the mix a stack of brightly colored Plaster Plan flyers, tape or stick pins & a strategy of where you are going to go to plaster. I like bulletin boards in apartment buildings, offices complexes, laundromat's, WalMarts, community centers, etc. Get creative & plaster. As you look at that bulletin board you've discovered, plaster it with 7 to 11 flyers. Someone will pull one down because they'll notice it more than once. It will catch their eye & they will call you. I've added a new flyer for you to run. This one offers a FREE can of Verve. Since everyone wants FREE, they'll call you. Have the number they call (written boldly on your flyer) be a voice mail. When calling them back, make sure you have a plan of action in place for them. This can be an area "tasting", an Open House, an area meeting, or a day scheduled for Face-to-Face Appointments. All of these strategies are discussed with Listen & Learn at www.teamburgess.com. The goal is for you to just get out there & plaster the area so you can literally ShAkE THE BUSHES to find new people to add to your team. Happy shaking! (& Plastering!)
