Offline Relationship Building a Networking
Offline networking and relationship building can be thought of as almost like building an offline list.
When marketing any of kind you need to decide who you are going to market to. The right audience means the desired sells and revenue you seek.
Building a list can provide you with the people you seek to market to.
To begin your list simply write down those people closest to you. Friends and family, of course you will market to them but this will not lead you to the revenue you seek, unless of course your family is Bill Gates! Break this into two pages, write friends on one page and family on the other. Start with your family, write their names down. Then branch down. List their friends, their associates, the groups and/or organizations. For example; your brother Bo has a girlfriend named Sarah. Bo works for the Fire Department and Sarah is a teacher. Bos coworker Eric that you meet once had a girlfriend that you liked name Beth, Beth works for the power company. This goes on and on. Writing the name of the person along with the affiliation of the person provides you with advertising possibilities. Not that you will go to Beth in particular and advertise directly to her, but you can go to the Power Company and ask to place business cards or flyers in their office. See where I am going with this? Its a simple yet very productive way to seek your revenue.
Why build a list? Because building a list provides you with organizations and companies that you would not have thought of as revenue for your specific situation. It provides you with various forms of advertising ideas, and brainstorming menerouvs. Using the power of brainstorming, in this form on list building, guides you in directions you might have otherwise been blocked from seeing. You would have never thought that your friend that had breast cancer and volunteered at the American Cancer Society would have provided you with a ring of customers by advertising for their DogsWalk Against Cancer event and obtaining new customers for you pet sitting business. Building that list and thinking outside the box provides ample opportunities that writes block would have left out! Get started. Build that list! And it is important not to stop. As long as you want revenue you will continue your list. Everyone you met is associated with or knows someone who could benefit from what you have to offer and could lead you in places you never imagined you could go!
