Follow-Up• Purpose of Follow-Up Is To Schedule The Next

Meeting

•What If Your Business Card Did That Automatically?

Page 19: Networking Without A Business Card

Here’s How This Works…• It’s called “Networking Without A Business Card”

• Instead of passing out business cards at networking events, have them text their name and email to a local phone number

• Your new contact gets a custom text message from you, a pre-recorded voicemail from you, and an email with all your information.

• (You can also include the number on your business card and follow up that way)

They Text You And Immediately Receive Back:1. “Hey (their name), it’s (your name). Great

meeting you! When’s the best time to follow-up?”

2. They text back: “Tuesday at 4”3. Instant Reply: “Great! I’m looking forward to

talking to you. Is there anything else I can help you with?”

Here’s How This Works…

Their Response

Shows Up In Your InboxNow You Know When They’ll Be Available…

Email:“Hi (their name),Great meeting you earlier… Here’s a quick

reminder of who I am and what I do.Here’s my contact information.If there’s anything else you need help with, just

click reply and let me know.-Yours Truly (You)”

Here’s How This Works…

Voicemail• “Hey it’s (You) from earlier. It was great

meeting you. Here’s a quick blurb about who I am. I just sent you an email and text message with my contact info so we can stay in touch. I’m looking forward to talking to you.”

Here’s How This Works…

Page 25: Networking Without A Business Card

• The new lead’s information is sent to an autoresponder system.

• That system automatically sends your customized follow-up messages to the new lead.

• You instantly receive an email with their contact information and replies in your inbox (it can also be sent to you as a text)

Here’s How This Works…

Here’s What It Will Do For You…

In the time it takes you to hand someone your business card and shake their hand you have:

• Sent them your contact info• Scheduled the time when you two can actually

talk

Page 27: Networking Without A Business Card

Here’s Why It’s Powerful…• Break their pattern

– Everyone else has business cards.• Multichannel (Full-Frontal Assault)– Contact them through multiple mediums of

communication• Authentic Messaging• Digital Intimacy

Page 28: Networking Without A Business Card

“But doesn’t a business card make a statement about you and your

business?”

Sure it does.

But here’s what Networking Without A Business Card says about you and

your business:

Page 29: Networking Without A Business Card

• Personal Intimacy– Tools become an extension of ourselves– Message from you, through multiple channels

(text, email, voicemail)• Friendly– When your friend schedules a dinner/outing with

you they use phone calls, leave voicemails, and leave text messages

• Authentic– Feels real instead of produced or manufactured

because of your personal touch

Page 30: Networking Without A Business Card

• Helpful– When your new contact replies to the text

message with the best time to follow-up, the reply from you asks if there’s anything else you can help them with

• Savvy– There are only a handful of people in the Portland

Metro area who have this…• Your Ego Loves It Too:– 20th C. was: “I’m better than you”– 21st C. is: “I’m cooler than you”

Page 31: Networking Without A Business Card

Bottom Line:• Reduce waste of paper business cards

• You’ll save time since you follow-up instantly

• More time to focus on the things that create the big results you really want (the better life that motivated you to start your business in the first place)
