"If You Want Beautiful Birds Clients, Offer What They Like"
If you look outside at my house, you will see robins, cardinals, sparrows, blue jays and occasional crows. Nothing too exciting in birdville in Ohio. Average looking birds, plentiful, nothing to write home about.
However, when we put out feeders with certain types of seed, we began to see brilliantly colored finches - yellow finches, house finches, purple finches. Regularly.
If we put out a jar lid of grape jelly, Baltimore Orioles magically appear. Regularly.
If we fill a container with sugar solution, brilliant green and red hummingbirds arrive. Regularly.
What's my point? Those birds were there, but we didn't see them because we didn't offer what they like and need.
If it seems that there is nothing exciting happening in your business...lots of people all around, but nobody interested in buying or selling...not too much in the way of results or thrilling possibilities...maybe it is because you are not offering them the tasty nourishment they eagerly seek.
Trust me. They are there. You just haven't offered them what they want, the way they want it.
Just as the elusive colorful birds and songbirds were nearby... We didn't see them until we started offering food they liked. No chasing. No begging. They came to us.
Once you offer potential clients what they like and what they need - a targeted diet, if you will - you will see wonderful clients magically appear. Regularly.
And that part of your business will get easier, because you aren't chasing them. They are gladly coming to you.
Next: Identifying your ideal client lets you know what to offer them!

Last week I had the chance to attend a seminar with unexpected benefits...I got to meet three of my facebook friends in person!! Dee Hawkins, Amy Cable Troyer and Stacey McVey are three friends whom I hadn't met in person yet, but I feel as if I know them very well...I met them through facebook friends I have met, and we have talked and shared.

Amy and I knew each other right away, same with Stacey.
Dee fooled me since she usually posts pix of her and a grandbaby...we were laughing at the same stuff, and I think we have a very similar sense of humor, which is cool.
Amy and I talked on a break like we were old friends and I think we both felt like we had known each other for years! We have a lot in common, but I have never experienced a first meeting like this.
