Hi everyone! Am back from Easter holidays here in Romania and pulling my NLP brains together 🙂
Deb – I think you are absolutely right. Some intros might produce results immediately some on medium or longer term. As you rightly said, it is a matter of follow-up and keep them close in your communications, newsletters and sometimes have the patience to listen to their problems. Someone came to my intro and although she would need some support she came up with the idea to support her daughter’s voleyball team to be more confident when stepping in the arena and don’t let themselves be intimidated by the supporters of their adversaries…so the idea is, that you get into some interesting conversations and discover things that you never thought of.
Also, the donation idea is brilliant. I also plan to charge something going forwards and see how this changes the exchange of energy between me and them.
Deb – you also asked me about FB adds in another thread, how this works. I have tested it in the past couple of months to create awareness and to basically help create the shift in people’s minds regarding what I do. As many of my colleagues at work they have known me for what I have been doing in the past years but not for NLP trainings, coaching etc. To be honest, FB adds require some time to figure out the best way to do the campaigns, do the targeting, adapting your communication and message based on the responses you get throughout the campaigns. Again, it produces results as long as you connect with the people separately, have conversations with them about what their problems are etc. Depending on what niche you have established for yourself, and what you are projecting, it is even surprising & funny to see some of the results or clients you get 🙂 Then you might go back an rewrite what kind of niche you want to be in.
By the way, I have a question on how to deal with clients that come to your training and want to make a move on you…not sure if this is the right expression but I think you got the point.
Thanks!
