Week 5 Live Q&A Replay – 2018

At the beginning of this call, we did a check in about where members are at with the program. Unfortunately, that part was not recorded. Suffice it to say that we are exactly where I expected us to be – all over the map and still in the game for keeps!

Apologies for not capturing the first part of this session. I’ve set it now to “Automatically Record”.

00:45:26 Jon Finch: Hypothetical Question for Barry 1. Send a professional-looking email 2. Send the crappiest (but personal) CVI Barry went with option 2.
00:47:21 DawnDreams: I am at the doctor’s office and waiting to be called. I want to ask Barry today about how the pitch differs when a) it’s a producer who you are pitching to? how would the CVI change?
00:48:02 DawnDreams: and b) when the person speaks a different language (from another country)
00:49:56 Jon Finch: Remember, we don’t send CVI to everyone.
00:50:09 Jon Finch: That’s why it’s last in the sales funnel.

Right now I’m contacting, grappling questions, sending CVIs, for a trade show in September, and I’m wondering if it’s too late even for September. What are the standard lead times for trade shows? State conventions? Other corporate events? Thank you.
