• People passing out business cards
• People who are looking for a job giving out something

When you come back from that event, you have a stack of similar looking business cards.  What do they tell you?  Company Name, Address, perhaps a mission statement, perhaps the products/services they sell.  Usually rectangle and 2" x 3" or so.  White with some color.  

Take a look at this presentation then ask yourself, what could you do differently.  At the end of the event you want to give them something that begs them to want to see more  — 

If you're like the majority of people

BUT WAIT….    Did you hear that bell or see that lightbulb go off?  What was that?  Was that an idea?

YES…   If you are going through these motions in your office, kind of taking it easy, working at the desk, checking emails  lots of other people must be too if they are in.

SOOOOOOO….  if they are free, then maybe they'll pick up the phone.  I can never get them at their desks… they are always in meetings.

SOOOOOO.   What are you waiting for.  Go make lots of calls over the holidays.  Make more than you ever have.    Get a voice machine… leave a Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays and you'll call them soon then keep trying (don't leave more messages though).

 Happy Hunting!!!
