5 ways to leverage your way into selling your products or services:
- Customers and Prospects — Create raving fans. This is the strongest selling partner available — a walking, talking billboard for your business.
- Strategic Partners — If you're not qualifying and introducing other strategic selling partners or Advisor Alliance Partners to your customers and prospects on a consistent and routine basis and vice-versa, you're not taking advantage of the remarkable leverage available to you just for the asking and giving.
- Vendors — Someone doing business with you should be more than willing to help you gain clients. Make it prid pro quo and all the more powerful for them.
- Competitors — Not all competitors are equal. Undoubtedly there are times that the other can better serve the prospect. Keep your competitors close and refer appropriate business.
- Detractors — What better way to win the loyalty of a prospect or customer than to WOW them into fan-hood. Make sure you capture the testimony of your convert.
