Okay, so I don't want you to get the wrong impression This video is not about network marketing. That's a whole different animal. That's not something I like to do And I don't know why anybody would want to do it because you're basically just selling whatever you got to your friends And family not something I want to do This is more about attending events and how to talk to people and how to get business out of these events And it's not what you think Now we often get invited to events. They could be trade shows trainings, you know charities I just got invited to an event in Mexico with Clickbank great event by the way the Clickbank Platinum Summit But when you go to these events, you've got to go into them with a different mindset than what you think You're not really going in there to try to get business as a matter of fact something Of an event that I would not go to would be something like Chamber of Commerce Because a Chamber of Commerce event they even bill it as to how to get business from other people by going in a room And they all exchange information and it's just a whole mismatch of people trying to get business off everybody else So I just don't like that kind of event. That's not my kind of thing and I don't think it's effective either I've never seen anybody come to me and say I go to Chamber of Commerce meetings and I get so much business out of it Because it just doesn't happen. Okay, so here's the steps. You should do number one And this is where most people really mess up Introduce yourself without trying to explain what you do. Don't do it Better off that you ask them what they do and act interested in their lives It comes off kind of cheesy when you walk up and you say hey, I'm blah blah blah and this is what I sell Are you interested? It just sounds way too salesy to me And that's really not what you should be doing anyhow at any of these events You should be acting interested in other people and what they have to say number two goes without saying but Seems like nobody's doing it be prepared Show up with a business card show up with some information in case somebody does want it I can't count how many times I go to an event and people don't have business cards or they don't know how to transfer their Information from one phone to the other. They're just totally not prepared that you know if they had their perfect customer standing in front of Them they wouldn't even know what to say to them. So when you go in there make sure you're prepared number three dress Appropriately now. What do I mean by that? Well, I mean that if you are in a business setting and you want to sell business services And you want these people to see you in your business setting dress as if you were in that business setting So if your normal course of business is you're an attorney and you wear a shirt and tie then you should wear a shirt And tie to that event however if you're a graphics media person and you like wearing wild t-shirts and jeans You should definitely dress that way when you attend the event because that way they can see you exactly the way You're going to be because however, they see you at that event should be how you look when you're not at that event There should be no difference number four This is a tough one for everybody act interested in whatever they say they do now This is kind of a tough thing because some people say well Most people's jobs are so boring and it's so dull and guys. I just can't listen to it Well, then you won't do well at networking events Okay, your whole job at a networking event is to make other people feel good too many people will go to a networking event And they say well, I hope I'm gonna get something out of it. I hope something good out of it comes for me Well, how about you're the person that makes that event good? How about you're the person that makes other people feel good? How about you're the person that makes that event for other people? If you go about it with that approach, you'll get enough of what you want by helping other people number five I love this one don't have dumb descriptions Okay, I hear this all the time where people will come up with a description for what they do or what they sell And they're basically masking what they actually do like I love this one here I help individuals and their families by helping insulate them from unforeseen downturns in their life No, just say I sell life insurance. That's all you got to say I'm a life insurance salesperson when you have these silly titles like this in these silly descriptions You're gonna get the same response every single time. Well, what exactly does that mean? They know that you're trying to mask what you're doing and it does you zero good to do that Number six make an offer and here's what I mean by make an offer Offer to help them with anything they need help with if they need help if they need clients If they need information make sure that you're a source that they would want to go to say I know these people are I know these things or I can help you out with that And if they see you as a person who's actually giving when they actually do need your service Maybe they'll turn to you But your whole goal is to help other people when you get to these events Number seven everybody that you come in contact with that you want to stay in contact with make sure you contact them So many people forget that they get back from the event the next day the next week and they never email them They never call them. They never send them a note. They never do anything and they expect to get business out of it Business is going to be gained from a relationship and the way you bond the relationship is you stay in touch with people It's hard to do. I mean I do this over the years with some of my friends And I'm still friends with people for you know 30 40 years I guess now But I try my best to every now and then touch base with them ask them how they're doing How's their life going because you never know when you can help that person or that person can help you Which you've got to be proactive because most people don't do this So every single person that you come in touch with at that networking event Make sure you contact them after the event. Let them know it was nice talking to them Let them remind them who you are remind them what you can do for them and you'll get a lot more out of that event Number eight attend as many events as you possibly can now at this point I get invited to a lot of different events and I really can't attend every single one But I attend as many as I possibly can because I know it's important. It's a numbers game I may go to two or three events and nothing comes of it And then the fourth event something big comes of it I make a lot of money and I'm not going to them for that reason. However I know it's it's a series of numbers the more numbers that you put up the more events you attend The more people you meet the better your chances of actually increasing your business and building your business You've got to meet more and more and more people never stop doing that Number nine act as if now. What do I mean by that? What I mean by that is act as if you are already successful And that doesn't mean being aloof or being stuck up. It just means trying to seem confident in what you do I remember here to interview the other day with Robert Downey Jr And the question was asked of him now He's been iron man in all these marvel movies over and over again And asked him if he ever gets nervous going on the set and his reply was every single time Now you would never know that from seeing him act on screen But he said he just goes out and does it even though he's nervous every single time I do recommend a book by mel robbins called the five second rule And basically the book will walk you through it But it's basically saying you're going to start at five and count down to one And then you're going to do the thing that you're nervous about doing and that may be just walking up to somebody and introducing yourself But I highly suggest you read that book It's a great book and it will kind of get you out of your shell out of your bubble And you've got to realize everybody's nervous. Everybody's, you know, uncomfortable Everybody feels the same things you do. It's just the people who don't let that paralyze them And they move forward anyhow are the ones that are super successful Now if you enjoyed this video, I want you to do me a favor Join the fisher family click that subscribe button down there.
