Getting more business through your contact sphere

A contact sphere is a group of business owners who have a mutually beneficial relationship. They are usually in compatible professions, and do not compete with each other. And yet they work with the same target client.

To make sure that you do more business through word-of-mouth, why not growing your contact sphere inside of your BTB Club group?


Identify as many business owners and professionals as possible that fit within your business' contact sphere. Who do you tend to work with? What other services are your clients using right before or after working with you? Create a list with as many names of this professionals as you can.


Invite these people to participate as visitors in your networking group. This way you can keep in contact with them regularly and do business with them consistently. If they are not really engaging with you after you are helping them, re-evaluate and fill the spot with someone who is ready to contribute as much as you are.


Contact spheres are the best way to help you build your business through referrals!
