Turn Networking Conversations into Sales Appointments, with Andy Winig (Rotarian aka "The Elevator Pitch Coach"). Monday, May 22 @ 8am.
Come Join us Virtually! RSVP through Zoom (required).
You’ve given your Elevator Pitch and had a nice conversation. Now what?
How do you transition from polite small talk to productive conversations that bring more clients to your business?
In this interactive workshop you’ll learn the key networking skills that turn strangers and acquaintances into clients and referral partners.
We’ll cover:
- When to follow up (and when NOT to).....
- How to identify the right connections (and avoid the ones that will just waste your time).
- The natural and non-salesy transitions that morph a networking conversation into an exploratory sales meeting.
- A simple framework for deciding who you want to meet with and how to structure that meeting.
- An approach that automatically makes people think of qualified referrals for you.
By the end of this 60-minute workshop you’ll have learned and practiced three key skills for turning networking connections into clients and referral partners.
The Rotary Business Networking Series is a part of the Business Growth track in the District 7910 Rotary @ Work initiative. Rotarians and friends from every Rotary Club in and around District 7910 are welcome to join our twice-monthly meetings.About Our Speaker:
Andrew Winig (a Needham Rotary Club member), the Elevator Pitch Coach, uses his improvisational, musical theater, and business backgrounds to make his virtual and in-person programs fun, entertaining, engaging, and practical.
Andrew found that the following the typical Elevator Pitch advice didn’t lead to any referrals for his businesses. Over 8 years he applied his engineering mind to identify and test new skills in search of a simple approach that works consistently.
His ground-breaking book “Elevator Pitch Handbook: The Step-by-Step Guide to Starting Conversations” condenses what he discovered into 51 readable pages that will forever change the way you talk about what you do. Andrew wants you to get better leads from your Elevator Pitch and shares his unique and effective techniques through email newsletters, virtual and in-person workshops, private coaching, and keynote speeches.
