Yesterday ~ Today ~ Tomorrow ~ PROSPECTING ~ This is a unique concept in today’s world of selling, isn’t it? Ever wonder how much time and effort people put into trade events which bring people together to conduct business? Not just hours, days, months, but sometimes years. They invest so very much to help each of us reach our target audience. That not only means manufacturers, distributors, and suppliers; it also means YOU, the contractor. “How?” you say. Just think of how many people walk those trade show floors and how many may just be looking for what you have, Mr. Contractor. Prospecting is usually thought of as searching for GOLD. Well, all of us are searching for GOLD - our CUSTOMERS. Whether the event is large or small is not the question. How many attendees / exhibitors are expected to come, and HOW MANY say they are coming and don’t, isn’t your answer. The QUESTION is - was this a missed opportunity in PROSPECTING? Remember, the “numbers” don’t matter - it’s the QUALITY that does. RONNIE’s REAL WORLD . . . with its ups and downs ~ but always positive thoughts, hopes, and dreams. See you on the trail . . .
