Convert Strangers into Clients and Contacts (Rotherham)

Date: Friday 25 January 2019
Time: 9:30am-11:30am
Venue: Fusion@Magna

This Masterclass takes four aspects of networking that are powerful in their own right but are seldom delivered together. This is because the focus tends to be just on the two main activities of traditional or social media networking. Here you get the full package as we move on to explore how to build effective relationships and then take that vital final step to convert them to clients on terms that suit you.

Businesses attending the Masterclass will understand how to:

  • Maximise your investment in Traditional Networking
  • Grasp the numerous opportunities from Social Media
  • Learn the Right Language to Engage People and Build Relationships
  • Gett Paid What You are Worth from Value Based Pricing

Delegates will gain an understanding of:

  • The mistakes not to make with traditional networking
  • How simple a social media business strategy can be to organise
  • Tips on how to build rapport with total strangers
  • How to set different fees for exactly the same job and get paid upfront

Who is leading it?

Pete set up PeterTS back in 2013 offering assistance on ISO standards via his ISO 9001 Support Centre and then founded the Modern Day Networkers in 2016 with colleagues David Winch and Sue Cleasby. He felt there as a need to ‘close the loop’ between obtaining the leads from networking sessions to developing them into paying clients so offering a total solution.

This Convert Strangers into Clients and Contacts Masterclass has been given to local business groups, Barnsley and Rotherham Chamber Exhibitions and also at the MADE Fringe Festival where is was recorded.

“Pete is already well known to me – a first class networker himself, a phenomenal business brain and certainly a man who makes things happen”, Rob Brown, CEO and Founder of the Networking Academy
