Every Day Actions That Can Help Your Business Boom

by Lisa Wilber

Are you actively looking for new customers and recruits every day? You should! Even if you feel that you have "all you can handle" at the moment, you need to constantly add new customers and recruits to your base continually just to stay even! After all, customers move, customers die, customers change. Recruits leave the company or change their goals. Always adding new people to both your customer base and downline is smart business! Here are 3 ways to help you add people daily:

1. Learn from Laverne!

Have your company name embroidered on every shirt that you own so that you wear your company logo every day without even thinking about it. Remember Laverne from the TV show "Laverne and Shirley"? She had a huge letter "L" on all her shirts. Wearing a logo shirt can really help attract people to your business. Wherever you go during your day, expect people to say to you "do you have a catalog with you?" And some will say "how do you get started with that company anyway? I've been looking to earn some extra money" You can find a local company to embroider your shirts by looking in the yellow pages or visit www.dfembroidery.com.

2. Six or Bust!

When you leave your house each day to go to work or to do errands, take six of your company's brochures and recruiting literature with you and don't come back home until you give them all away to people you meet! You'll soon find that six are too few and you'll increase that amount. Let me give you an example. You are going grocery shopping - give a brochure to the employee who greets you at the door, give one to the person at the Bakery counter, the Seafood counter, the Deli counter. Give a brochure to the person in front of you in line at the cash register, the person behind you in line and the cashier. Give another brochure to the person who bags your groceries. Be sure to visit the rest room at the grocery store and leave your brochure! Stick a couple business cards in the frame of the mirror! Don't think of it as being pushy -- you are just letting people know what you do. Never, never launch into a presentation -- you are simply trying to get your information in as many hands as possible. I like to hand the brochure and simply say "I brought this for you!"

3. Pin on a Promo!

Attach a promotional button or piece of jewelry to your shirt, jacket or purse strap and you'll get that all important exposure for your company and products. There are many companies that sell promotional buttons and pins
