Old-Made-New: A Leads Source for Party Plan WAHMs: Here's how...

Hey there WAHMs! Here's a unique leads source for you for your home party plan business:

Craigslist.

OK, I know it's not new...however, I am not saying to just run ads and cross your fingers hoping someone will answer.

Here's how to use Craigslist as a source of leads for your business:

Running ads is fine, however it's really not the best way to get targeted and active leads. Try this instead:

Get a solid list of businesses that complement yours. For example, if you sell cosmetics, look in the small business ads section for anyone offering beauty services. There are likely many including hair extensions, massage (legit!) and other personal care services.

Contact these people and offer them a special on your products for referrals, or maybe even a small commission for anyone they send your way. If they agree, send them some brochures, samples to give out, etc. Be sure to "code" them before sending (write the referral company's name or initials or some number that correlates to them on each brochure/sample). This will make things simple when it comes to identifying what lead came from whom.

You could even put together a "spa special" or similar event where the provider and you get together and do a fun party where they offer their service and you offer yours and you both invite your entire clients lists. Great co-marketing!

So, next time you're wondering how to get some new, targeted (the most important kind) of leads in your community, look at Craigslist a new way!

WAHM Business Tip: Are you "Dialing for Dollars?"

Get your FREE sample of this fun book! Are you spending enough time following up? You probably work like crazy to get good leads, have interesting promotions and book sales events. But are you so busy focusing on getting NEW leads that you forgot about OLD ones? Your "warm" leads (leads who have already met you/ bought from you, etc.) are the best source for new business...and new recruits. If they have purchased from you, then be sure to put them on your priority list for follow-ups. If you contact each warm lead each month (by phone, email or mail) you will certainly find yourself with higher sales. It's easy to forget, get busy, get re-focused, etc., however if you establish a "tickler file" to keep yourself on track you will find it much easier. These files can be physical or electronic and will keep you in constant contact with your customers and potential customers. Another method is to s...

1. Tell us about your business opportunity--what do you represent? Younique Minerals Cosmetics 2. How long have you been involved with this? How did you get into it?

The Younique 3D mascara uses all natural green tea fibers (I could almost hear my eyes saying thank you!).
