Business Coaching~ 1/24/12

Thank you to all those who were on the Business Coaching Call today!  We appreciate your participation and have seen an increase in revenue with those who have taken the time to focus and attend to these calls.

Today on our call we talked about "planting seeds" and going back to the basics.  Just like farmers planting crops we need to plan and then deliver within a exact period of time reap the rewards.  What can you do now to prepare for the upcoming Spring? 
- Call all of your current & past clients one month before the Spring time season and get them on your preferred customer list.  On this call you should be securing a mowing season contract and scheduling them for a yard clean-up.
- Email Campaign to those same clients prior to your phone call reminding them they need to get on your waiting list now as preferred client before you are booked for the season. 
- Send a card to those business to business contacts from SendOutCards.com for one of the off holidays: Valentine's Day, St. Patricks Day...
- Pick at least one day a week (more if you are not busy) and go to your networking meetings, office visits and one on one meetings with other business owners that may be able to refer business to you and you can refer business to them.  Who doesn't like to go to breakfast or coffee???  It's a great way to build friendships and business contacts.  Remember, you have at least one thing in common- you are business owners. 

These are just a few ideas, can you come up with more?
