Let the business prospect know that you enjoyed talking with him during your initial point of contact. Include personal information to help the individual remember you. For example, if you meet a person at your child's little league game, be sure to mention that fact.
Tell the potential client that you wanted to follow up. Offer your services, go over your idea or share something useful. Most people like to feel that they are getting something for nothing.

You need to know that this is exactly the opposite of what you should be doing to build a successful business. I'm not saying you shouldn't follow up with those who don't immediately get active with SFI. You should. But don't spend ALL or even the majority of your time with this. And DEFINITELY DO NOT IGNORE your workers!

For SFI affiliates, what is the most overrated activity...and what is the most underrated activity?

My secret to success is having a simple, automated online business. The beauty of this is that just about anybody can do it. There are only three components to a successful Internet business:

1. You must offer quality products that people want or need;
2. Your Website must sell well;
3. You have to be able to bring targeted traffic to your Website, cost-effectively
