Plus a good question and answer, which may get you business
If there has ever been a worse day for response than last weekend, I can’t recall it.
It was the start of August. Always dire.
The biggest day of the Olympics. Double dire.
Britain did really well – people focusing on that. Triple dire.
We got zero response to some stuff we were running.
But an offer of a report and a video on how to get a job got me my highest response ever.
Plus one very interesting question from Jim Tour:
“Is it a good idea to get target audience information (aka market research) from the client, or is it better to go to forums and scour them for 10 hrs?”
This is a good question because the answer applies not just to getting jobs. It applies to getting work from prospects, too.
Here’s what I said to Jim.
“The answer is both.
Asking them shows you’re keen.
Finding out things they didn’t tell you tells them you’re REALLY keen.
Someone I know was interviewing for talent recently.
Who got the job?
The guy who came in with pages of notes about what he thought could be done better.”
