| At least once a year invite all of your past clients and referral contacts (your A's and B's) to your annual Client Appreciation Party. Ideas for parties: - Backyard barbeque
- Halloween Party
- Sports Celebration
- Rent your local movie theater
- Harbor cruise (on the coast)
- Pool party
The most important thing is your contacts get to know you appreciate them and the referrals they send to you. This is also a great way for you to network within you referral database. Once you have arranged the venue send out written invitations at least three months in advance; then follow-up with a phone call to confirm receipt / attendance. Mail a reminder card the week of the party. |
