Reflection & Referrals

You have heard it time and time again that the best way to build your business is through Referrals.

90% of business people just don’t ask for referrals.

They are too self absorbed in their fear based subconscious ego mind either;

– When they are making the sale because their ego is afraid that if they ask the client for just one more thing, the client will reject them and the sale all together

– When they have completed the sale and then moved onto the next ego obsessive based sale and they have lost touch with the client all together so now their ego has them feeling guilty and they could not possibly go back and ask for referrals

What to do?

Reflect back and make a list of all of the current and past clients that you love or loved doing business with. Next to each one of their names, write down some of the circumstances that you can remember about doing business with them. Next make the Referral call using the following script.

Here’s an example of a Reflection;

Client “X”

I remember that Client “X” was a Referral (G.M.) from a Referral (J.R.).

Client “X” said to me “I am working too hard and not making enough money and I don’t have enough time and I want to double my income. Can you help me?” I said yes. One year later “Client “X” took me out for lunch to celebrate that income had doubled in one year. That event was the first of many confirming events that I have an outstanding coaching system that creates results when the clients do the work.
