Prospecting "Bars and Restaurant" Owners/Managers


Today I want to talk a little about recruiting at Bars and Restaurants.

OK, so now Nick's suggesting we go to bars to build our business. “Are you crazy Hetcher? I'm NOT going to build my business 'this' way. NO WAY BUDDY!!”……Hold on thar BubbaLu...Hear me out before you circular-file my suggestion.

It does have great potential to bust your business wide open, which means--your income can go thru the roof. Let's think "outside the box" for a minute here. It'll be fun. Read on.

HERE IT IS...

When you present your product line or business opportunity to more than one person at a time, such as small or medium size groups, you are building your customer and marketing executive base faster.

It just makes sense, right? And once you do a couple group presentations, it's gets much easier to do them. So, how do bars and restaurants fit into this equation?

Think about it, every bar (or restaurant for that matter) owner and manager have a loyal following of hundreds or even thousands of customers("friends").

These are people that "already" spend money with them. They gladly give them their money on a regular basis.

Can you see where I'm going with this? Of these hundreds or thousands of friends, they know some who are leaders and people with the right attributes for success, such as a great attitude and work ethic. They know who among their patrons has their own "following" of believers. Like-minded people.

THIS IS POWER!!

These bar and restaurant owners are entrepreneurs. They already work for themselves and manage people, and many would love to make extra money without much effort, and maybe they can with your company, since they already have this following of people. If they don't join you, they may really be leaving a lot of money (Immediate and Residual Income)...on the table.

WHAT TO DO...

If you know a few bar or restaurant owners, start with them. Then you could expand and contact virtually every one in your area. Show them the company presentation in person and how they could earn substantial income fairly quickly by simply inviting every one of their patrons to a Saturday morning presentation that you would present for them.

Make up some flyers for them to pass out a couple of weeks leading up to the event. They could identify leaders "before" hand so a pecking order was in place before presentation time. You should meet with a few of their "key" leaders prior to the meeting and get them into the business before the meeting.

Make sure the presentation isn't too early on Saturday morning, so those late Friday night folks can make it too.

You could even do a mailing and phone follow up to hundreds of bars and restaurants in your region.

This idea, if properly executed, could be a real boon for your business.

TIP: Remember, a great idea is NOTHING, unless it is ACTED upon!!
