Booking Problems??

[Don]

Ok so you say that you want to over book your shows for the following month? Heres one way to build that up and make it happen!

Do you have a nametag for your company?

If not you should invest in one if you plan to be with them for more than one year.

If so, Put it on upside down intentionally.... YES! UPSIDE DOWN! make sure that its visible to everyone too..... Eventually someone will let you know that you have it on upside down opening up the can of worms for you to talk about the business...

Of course you start talking and he or she will cringe, but be sure to give them one of the teaser catalogs for your business... that way they can see the product as you are talking to them.... How ever make it short.... such as a commercial on the tube. Work on your "30 Second Commercial" EVERYWHERE!

Make it state the following..

The company, what you sell, and how to reach you, then hand a business card.

Also be sure to get one in return or at least a name and number so that you can follow up with them in a couple of days.

FOLLOW UP IS KEY! 48 HOURS OR LESS! that way they don't forget who you are or lose the company info that you have given them.

I have been doing it alot lately. Its working to get attention, but haven't gotten any deffinate bookings from doing it yet... of course AHA is a bit out of the norm here... New company to my area. But Home interiors, partylite, and tupperware, now those are house hold names. It should work really well for those reps.
