Criteria For Segmenting Your Clients Into “A” Clients

Step 1 – Print out an alphabetical list of your clients

Step 2 – Highlight the clients based upon the following criteria

Step 3 – Outstanding Client Relationships

Outstanding Client Relationship means: You enjoy doing business with the client and the client enjoys doing business with you.

“Have” means that you currently have an outstanding client relationship with and “Had” means that you have just lost touch with the outstanding client relationship – for whatever reason.

1. You enjoy doing business with the client and the client enjoys doing business with you
2. You provide excellent customer service to the client
3. You look forward to meeting with and doing business with the client
4. The client trusts you and you are looking after all or a substantial amount of the client’s business
5. The client has a significant business and/or family network
6. The client fits within two to three marketing niches that you have chosen to work with

Note that the above list does not include how profitable the client is or the client’s net worth.

The reason that profit and net worth are not included is that these are not going to matter in relationship to future Referral Introductions, Testimonials and Sales if you don’t have an outstanding relationship with the client.

Happy Work Anniversary Baby!

It will be 3 years ago the week of September 24th that Laura and I started working together.

Laura thank you for your love, support, experience, wisdom, knowledge, intelligence, common sense, level headedness, persistence and courage.

They say that it is not always easy to wake up unemployed every morning and go out and make something of the day.

It is great to have the opportunity to be able to celebrate the wins of our clients along with the many new wins that we are experiencing through our marketing efforts.

This brings me to a brand new PowerPoint slide that I have inserted into the “Removing Your Roadblocks” Presentation.

How Do You And Laura Work Together?

Simple. We know what are individual unmet needs are, we know how to meet them, we know how to clear limiting beliefs and limiting emotions that occur as a result of these unmet needs. We don’t blame ourselves or each other.

“The only reason that people have conflict with anything in their business or personal lives is because they do not understand how to meet their unmet needs and values and the unmet needs and values of others.”  

Said another way, grow up and stop allowing your dysfunctional ego mind from trying to get your unmet needs met from your spouse and then blaming them for not meeting your unmet needs that are unconscious that you are unlikely unaware of.
 

The past 6 weeks while traveling on many flights have created the time to write six to seven hand written articles that have not been type set into my computer.  This has become the catalyst for me to invest in a Gateway Convertible Notebook PC. 

The Convertible Notebook PC will allow me to work almost anywhere handwriting articles directly on the tablet and then converting the handwriting into type set articles with the touch of a button.

Someone once said to me that “forgiveness reminds us of the energy that was present when we were created”.

To take this another step then this would hold true that “forgiveness reminds us of the energy that was present when an idea was created”.

In yesterday’s Blog I wrote that the best way to set goals is to first stop and give thanks for what you have already created this year or over the past year in the case of setting goals from January 1^st forward.

So on the eve of publishing our brand new web site, September e-newsletter, chapter one of my book and a whole lot more and after countless hours of focus, dedication and stretching then one could forget all the rest of the wonderful things that are going on in both their business and personal lives.
