Before you consider re-energizing with your SFI business, you should do a review or evaluation of your goals and performance for the current year. You should also perform a review with your business plan and your business strategy. Your goals tab is a good place to start with your evaluation process.
Here are some important questions to evaluate where you stand with your SFI business:
- Are you keeping up with the latest SFI innovations with your business to stay ahead and stand out among the crowd?
- In your networking activities, are you targeting the right people?
- Is your branding and visual marketing fresh and engaging?
- Are you using the best practices, tactics and technology for who you need to reach?
You can add more questions relating to activities of enhancing the growth of your SFI business for more thorough evaluation.
Based upon the questions above, you’ll be able to identify, where you need to improve. Here are trends that stand out for me that will pave the way for the coming year:
1. Networking – one of the most effective ways of prospecting. I believe, nothing beats getting out and meeting people face to face.
2. Social media – Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, etc. are hot places to connect with new prospects.
3. Focus on marketing to baby boomers - most baby boomers have already established networks in terms of social interaction and in terms of previous co-workers, associates, and business contacts. They could be ideal prospects for SFI opportunity.
