57% of business say they attend networking and trade show events for 2 reasons;

1. to showcase their company
2. find new prospects to grow their business

You probably already know – attending business networking and trade show events is one of the best way to find new prospects to grow your company.

But if you simply collect business cards and never follow up to connect and turn those leads into sales, then you will fail to turn those leads into sales.

Cheryl is definitely the Follow Up Specialist! After taking her “Follow Up System” workshop and being introduced to the “10 Step Follow Up System,” I have a template to follow that will save time and increase my business.

I enjoyed Cheryl’s “Set The Stage” training. Cheryl underscored the importance of following up with prospects and gave valuable input and ready-to-use strategies for overcoming that inherent reluctance to follow up past the first meeting. I also found Cheryl’s system for keeping track of your networkd very useful.

I came to this seminar with very little information on social networking — I thought it was something very confusing, and I’ve really have been avoiding it!

After completing the seminar, I understand the concept, I understand the value, and we’ll definitely move in this direction as far as expanding my business, expanding my client base, and ultimately, expanding the level of business I am going to do this year.
