I attended an amazing Power Core meeting today! I was a guest of one of my clients.
Lots of talking, lots of (very short!) business presentations. This group is in the business of referral marketing in a big way. Even as a guest, I walked away with four referrals for business.
I also walked away with a small stack of business cards as new contacts. Nothing particularly special about that - you can pick up business cards anywhere. But, if I follow up quickly, these people might actually remember me from the meeting.
So, I finally had a chance to sit down to send out some cards to them. After sending a few initial contact e-mails, I sent out four thank you cards to people from the meeting who particularly helped - either inviting me, giving me a referral, or answering a bunch of questions. With Send Out Cards, I was able to sit down at the computer, draft four entirely unique messages on four entirely unique cards, and have them sent by REAL mail to these business contacts. But I didn’t have any thank you cards at home. It was all through the computer. I’m hoping for a positive impression through those cards to these influential networking people. I’m excited that I’m able to do it so easily!!
