The more you know the essence of who you serve, the more you’re able to always be on the same page with them. Then you aren’t trying to talk to your mechanic the same way you would toMany of my clients share that one of their biggest marketing challenges is actually connecting to enough prospects. They are doing all of this great work in their businesses, but not very many people know about their work; or at least not enough for the flow of business to be moving smoothly and easily. Stop. Start. Stop. Start. Sound familiar? There isn't one perfect way to consistently connect with prospects, but there are many ways that, when used collaboratively, will build you a nice stream of people who are interested in what you do.

To get the energy of your marketing moving, start with these 3 sure fire ways to connect with quality prospects. Remember, it isn’t about connecting with everyone and anyone. It’s about connecting to those prospects that are interested in you and what you offer, and the way you offer it.

1. Know Your Clients and Customers

I’m sure this is not new news to you. When you are in business for yourself, you must know whom you serve. The more you know about your ideal clients/customers, the better you'll know where and how to find them.

But here’s another side to this that you won’t hear a lot of business coaches talking about. Have you ever noticed how you behave differently when you’re with different people? You operate one way with grandma and another with your mechanic, right? Now, obviously, we are always going for being genuinely ourselves, but still there’s always a slight difference.

2. Have Your Own Main Stay In-Touch Tool

This is a crucial tool when it comes to being able to connect with quality prospects. I always like to say, “Offer something F*R*E*E of extremely high value and content, in exchange for being able to stay in touch.” Not everyone is ready to work with you right away. But because people are so busy and have so much information available to them, it can be easy for you to drop off of someone’s radar—even if they are interested in what you have to offer. Better to stay in touch so they don’t forget about you and you don’t forget about them.

Now, there are many different ways to stay in touch: email, teleclasses, postcards, event announcements, and more. The key point is that you choose at least 3 and then rank them in order of regularity and plug them in so they are consistent—like clock work. Prospects like to know they can count on you. For example, one you do once a week, another you do every other week and the third happens monthly. For myself, I offer on-going FREE weekly teleclasses called EnergyRICH™ Business Re-Charge Calls; every other week I share the e-zine that you’re reading right now and every month I host a special 1-hour teleclass, also free.
