3 Strategies To Build Your Team
My friend, let’s face it.
If you want to build a sizeable monthly Residual Income, one of the best ways to accomplish that is by leveraging the time, talents, and efforts of other people, who share your core values.
In other words, you need to be involved in “team building” … and developing your network.
Today were going to discuss 3 Powerful strategies that have been proven to boost your know/like/trust/factor … and give your team building efforts the results that you desire.
These 3 strategies involve your
- (1) your phone list/conference calls
- (2) Online Webinars
- (3) Local Meetup Groups
There are two lists that you will come to rely on again and again in team building … Your Phone List and your Email (auto-responder) list.
The reason why I put your phone list as the #1 teambuilding tool, is because, ultimately this whole idea of leveraging your various contacts and relations into a core group who agree on common core values and a common broad objective (residual income/time freedom) … is something that YOU have to DO …
Relationships are REAL, and you will need to pick up the phone, make the call and build the relationship.
Ideas and money don’t fall out of the sky, they ultimately come from “people” … so let’s make the calls.
Napolean Hill was reported to have said, “if you have something of great value you should be confident to share it.”
So … put thought and energy behind “why” your idea will be a benefit to the next person … and call with confidence.
Conference Calls As A Team Building Funnel
Start with a Facebook post or a Facebook Event Page announcing a conference call to discuss your mission, and asking that your targeted contacts be present to give input and discuss details.
You will want to do the same with your entire email list and your phone list.
If you have’nt already done so, this will be an excellent time to refine your Facebook contacts into “list categories” based on how you know and interact with them … and do the same for your email list.
It’s time that we really start FOCUSING on giving more time to those contacts that share our mindset, if we are going to make progress.
With your invitees, both from Facebook and from your mailing list, there will be 4 categories:
– those that do not respond
– those that say “no”
– those that “may attend”
– those that say “yes”, they are attending
- Develop a follow-up post for Facebook and a follow-up email to your email list, for all those that say maybe or yes ….
– A few lines with a link to a video or some other great information in support of your conference call’s subject, for those that say maybe.
– A few lines to thank your attendees who have committed to come.
- For those that come to the conference call, make sure you record the call, capture the attendee phone numbers, and give them a link to review the call later. Remember *** We are building a funnel for team building … so the “Fortune is in the Follow-Up”.
Webinars/Webcasts As A Team Building Tool
Webinars, without doubt, are several times more powerful than a conference call … Because your attendees get to turn on their visual receptors in addition to hearing your great content.
Live Webcasts score even higher points, because YOU are at centerstage.
People who only knew you “casually” have an opportunity to warm up to your personality, and the passion of your delivery.
Don’t worry … most video webinar/live webcast services give you the option of …
- (a) pre-recorded webinar
- (b) webinar where you do powerpoint, with no stream of YOU
- (C) Full live stream
So find the formula that fits your confidence level right now … and make webinars a part of your team building strategy.
Remember*** Webinars deliver valuable informational content as well as allow the audience to BRAND YOU as a leader.
This is a fantastic advantage, that will build your credibility like no other strategy.
Webinars follow the exact same format as conference calls, as far as your “funnel process” is concerned.
MeetUp Groups ARE HOT!
Equally effective for BRANDING and team building in your local community, are MeetUps
MeetUp.com is a global phenomenon. Go and see for yourself.
MeetUp.com as a part of your team building strategy … BRILLIANT !
Meetup.com is an online “locator” resource for groups IN YOUR LOCALE that are meeting to discuss and strategize on topics that are relevant to YOU.
go to the site, put in your “category” as a keyword search phrase, and you may be suprised at the rich treasure chest of potential clients and business partners for your business … already meeting …IN YOUR OWN BACKYARD!
And … If you are searching for health and fitness, or precious metals, or coffee lovers, etc … and you DON’T find a meetup group in your area …
WOW! What an opportunity for you to shine by registering a name for YOUR meetup group, on the website … and start planning your first official MeetUp.
You may be AMAZED at the people that show up for your local event … and these are “warm-prospects”, who are already interested in what you are meeting about.
These 3 simple yet powerful strategies, done with consistency, will put booster rockets on your team building efforts in just a short time.
Team building is a “process” …so don’t rush it.
Rather, embrace the idea that consistency in your team building efforts, is the most profitable work that you can put towards developing the leveraged Residual Income that you seek.
success to you,
