No, nothing has caught fire but your business could burn a bit brighter just by implementing this simple strategy.

During any time of the year that business is a bit slower paced, you have plenty of opportunities to make an impression with a “Stop & Drop”

If you are not familiar with what a “Stop & Drop” is, it’s this in a nutshell: you “Stop” in on a client or a prospect unexpectedly to say hello, “Drop” a card or small gift and leave. (“Keep on Rolling”)  It’s easy to do, it gives you the opportunity to say ‘hi’ face to face and builds relationships.

This is not a service or sales call so keep it short – 10 minutes max.  During your SHORT conversation, you can get a pulse of what their wants and needs are so you can better serve them. If they want to have a longer conversation with you about your services/product, be prepared to do it right then and there, or choose to schedule a time that works for both of you.

Is the person that you wanted to see not in? Then be sure to follow up with a personal handwritten note. (you know me and personal notes!) Staying in contact with your database is a MUST to build awareness and garner loyalty for your brand. Face to face is one of THE most effective ways.

Now go Stop. Drop. And keep on Rolling!
