The life of a business owner consists of getting in front of the most people and letting them know what he or she can offer them. The first issue is to get their attention and the second issue is what to do once they have their attention. Many times at business friendly mixers, someone walks up to another business owner, hands them their card and begins to tell them how amazing their product or service is. Amazingly, the recipient can be given a free card and get an earful of unsolicited nonsense without asking.
Business relationships and the art of creating them can be the difference between being successful and beating your head against the wall. Many steps need to take place before completing a sale and no one can successfully skip any step. If you go too fast, your reputation turns for the worse, but stay in for the long haul and the momentum will build like a stone rolling downhill.
A workshop entitled Business Relationships 101 will be held on April 18th, 2012 at the meeting room located at 27070 Sun City Blvd in Menifee. It starts at 10am and will last two hours. This workshop will cover the steps to help a marketing team or individual be more approachable, productive and get into a sales step with a target audience. The cost is $79 or $40 if you are a Chamber member and well worth the investment for your business. For any questions and to sign up in advance, contact Brian Walker at 951-672-3476. Credit cards are accepted and space is limited.
