ATSI Marketing Committee
Welcome Back From Summer!
 
OK OK ..  I know it's hot outside and everyone wants to get going .. but before we adjourn the meeting I would like to open the floor to New Business:
New Business
New Verticals
New opportunities--  Anyone?  Anyone?  Buehler - Buehler?
 
Yes you in the waaaaaaaaay back what have you got to say?

 "New business "   --- "Yes New Business, what have you got ...?"  --- "New Business "
New business is "New businesses".  With the economy doing what it's doing and businesses doing what they are doing there is a predictable increase in individuals going into business for themselves.  Home businesses / consultants / outside sales rep.  etc.  This means an increase in people using their personal cell numbers or home numbers as business numbers and all the pluses and the many minuses that come along with that decision.

 


"So where do we find these new businesses?"
"Well, new businesses need to grow their business. So where does a new business go to get their new business? - Networking events."

"Networking events? Like chamber meetings and the like?"
"Chamber meetings are only one way, there are other places to find vibrant and interesting networking events." Such as:

www.meetup.com is a great way to connect to groups that are full of people just starting up and looking for connections with other businesses, resources and vendors.  Answering services are a perfect fit for any networking event because in 99% of cases any rep from an answering service will be the 1st answering service rep anyone from any networking meeting will have ever met, and will ever meet for a long time to come.  Being first is a good thing and a memorable thing.

New businesses need lots of help to grow.  Adding an answering service can be a catalyst for increasing productivity and responsiveness to customers which is a precursor to growth for any new business.

"Your Call is Not That Important" By Emily Yellin

A Special Message from Susan Mealer:

"Emily Yellin will join us on the next call! I have talked to her about our industry, and she is fascinated by the fact that most of the time our employees are not empowered due to customer limitations, unlike what she describes in her book. Join Darlene Campbell, moderator, and Emily Yellin."
