Default Face to face marketing really works
I belong to a womens small business group and went to one of their luncheon events today. Not only did I speak with a new client but also got 3 prospects that I will be speaking with next week. It was great to hear that they are interested because (1) they have seen the work I have done and (2) they have actually met me and gotten to know me.

As their businesses are growing they are keeping me in mind just from tips I have provided to the group and talking to them at various events. So this just reiterates the power of face to face networking.

Guess I will now have to go full time!
