52週人脈計畫 -第44週 善用其他和你往來的公司

第44週 　善用其他和你往來的公司

這週的首要工作是要列出你固定往來的公司。從資金的流向來看，你可能是某家公司每個月消費數百美元甚至數千美元的顧客。現在要反過來，想想這些公司能夠如何協助你這位忠實顧客。他們可能願意幫你發行的快報提供一些內容；可能願意在他們的櫃台上擺放你的名片；也可能願意贊助你下一次拓展人脈的活動。挑一家公司並向對方提出自己的想法，看看能夠得到什麼樣的回應。最壞的結果便是遭到他們拒絕，但是成果也可能會相當豐富。

Week 44 　Capitalize on other companies you deal with

Job #1 for this week is to draw up a list of the companies you do business with on a regular basis. If you follow the money trail, you might be spending hundreds or even thousands of dollars each month as a customer of that business. Now turn it around and consider what those businesses can be doing to help you, their loyal customer. They might be willing to contribute something to your newsletter. Or they might display your business cards on their counter. Or perhaps they will sponsor your next networking event. Pick one establishment and approach them with some ideas and see where that takes you. The worst they can do is say no, but the upside potential is quite substantial.
