I’m walking out the door right now to drive to Plymouth, Massachusetts (home of Plymouth Rock).
I’m driving the 90 minutes on this blazing, muggy July day to do something no one really does anymore… meet with a prospective client. In person.
I’m going to meet with someone I don’t know, tour their offices, let them take me through a mock-up of their entire belly-to-belly sales process, and let them treat me to one of those steak dinners where someone is going to pitch me on their financial services products.
And why am I going to do all that?
Because I’m fascinated by finance.
Because they need more leads.
Because they drive those leads through snail mail (which I don’t see that often anymore, and I think is super cool).
And because I have a thousand and one questions to ask about almost everything.
I figure it’ll be like the Ryan Levesque ASK Method, only in person.
So that’s me today: Kicking it old school.
I even wore a skirt… and makeup.
Take-away for today: Go find someone in your industry, and ask them some juicy, delicious questions. They like it. And it’s fun.
Have a great day!
Much love,

P.S. I’m still offering free “Find Your Ideal Buyer” consultations through August. I might have to switch to a pay-for model, once the kids start school. Either way, If you’d like to know who your ideal buyer is, we can sort that out in about 15 minutes by Skype. It’s a free consultation. There’s no obligation. Click here to reserve your spot.
P.P.S. Can I tell you a secret? I have this crazy idea to start a print letter. It would be 16-pages long, delivered to your home. Like a care package that comes to your house every month, complete with marketing advice, inspiration, buyer psychology training, and take-care-a-you stuff for people who write for a living (and maybe are kinda hard on themselves and would like a little pick-me-up). Plus, stickers. Because I like stickers.
Is that something you might be interested in? If so, could you hit reply and let me know? I’d appreciate it.
