How to Get More Business?

Recently, I submitted requests for quotes to several businesses for work I need done. Each potential vendor came highly recommended from someone I trust. I reviewed the work of ten vendors and contacted five of them. If you are wondering how to get more business, I’m going to share a huge “secret” with you.

First, how many vendors do you think contacted me?

If you raised your hand to say none, then you are not quite correct. If you said one, then you get the lollipop prize.

In the worst economic climate since the Great Depression – sorry, I had to throw in that overused phrase just for fun — one would think a company would contact a potential client. One would think a company would contact a potential client who is ready to spend money.

Perhaps you are a business owner who contacts potential clients to answer their questions and accept their business. If you do, I can assure you that you’re one step ahead of much of the competition.
