We've
been sharing ideas about effective follow up for the last couple weeks and I
love everyone's comments - thank you! Many of you are familiar with Mary Kay
Ash and the legacy she left with her cosmetics empire. She was a master at
personal development and empowering people to step into their greatness. I love
the quote pictured here - isn't it so true?
It
doesn't matter how young or old you are, or what cultural background you're
from, we all want to be acknowledged. To be heard. To know we make a difference
to the people in our lives. Everything else in life is icing.
We are in the
people business. The more you listen and acknowledge, notice, and give feedback
to the prospects you want to connect with, the more your business will grow.
You need to be genuine, authentic, and most of all, PRESENT. Don't make the
mistake of scheduling coffee with someone, and then you keep glancing at your
phone. That's unfortunately so common these days - you're insulting your
prospect, their time, and you'll be left wondering why they don't want to
return your calls. When someone does this to me, it's a guarantee that they
don't get my time in the future. Has this happened to you? How did it make you
feel?
