Become a follow-up genius in 3 steps, with Shannon Baker.
Be Brilliant In Your Business Podcast, Episode 67
Let's talk about systems! My guest today is Shannon Baker, an expert at organizing and creating systems that simplify the way you run your business.
Time is the one thing that we cannot create more of.
Our time matters! It’s the most valuable asset we have, and we want to use it well. As business owners, we are constantly working to manage our time better, so we can live the way we want to AND get things done.
Enter, systems and processes. So why is it that so many small business owners AVOID building systems that would free up time, earn them more money, and make everyone's experience better? Because it seems hard to do.
It can sound complex, which makes it daunting for anyone who already feels pressed for time. But it doesn't have to be, which is why I wanted to bring Shannon Baker on the show.
Shannon makes it simple, and today she is sharing a 3-step process to help you become a master at building relationships with potential new clients.
Key Takeaways:
You need a client database.
You're more likely to use a simple system than a fancy one.
Clients form their opinion of your relationship fast - so responsiveness is key.
The best news ever - you can build these time-saving systems a few minutes at a time. No matter how busy you are, you'll definitely have time for this.
