The 4 Step Framework to
  Staying Relevant with
     your Network
Who am I?

     @cappaert
Now before we get started...
Why should you follow up
  with your network?

    Because following up:
    more leads
      more closed sales
          more $$$
Follow up is key
       with any lead
• Lead = prospective or current customer,
  colleague, family member, friend, etc
• We all know we should follow up with
  folks, but we don’t
• Why don’t we?   Because it’s HARD and
  we don’t have enough TIME
+


=
Use the 4 Step
      Framework to...

• Send timely, personal, and relevant follow
  ups to your top contacts
• Use tools to make the entire process
  easier and more automatic
#1
Make it personal
Find personal opportunities to reconnect
Generic follow ups
      suck
Ways to make your
    emails personal

• Major life events: birthdays, children,
  vacations
• Major professional events: job changes or
  promotions, company news
But How?
#2
Deliver value...
   through CONTENT
Good Content is King

• Relevant relevant relevant
• Keep it related to their interests, hobbies,
  company
• And even if it’s relevant, make sure it’s good
  content that they’ll appreciate receiving
But How?


   +
#3
Deliver value...
 through YOUR NETWORK
The best way to add
value is through intros

• Much like content, people want intros to
  other people that are relevant

• Make sure the intros are mutually
  beneficial to both parties
But How?
Match people with the same topics from Step 2



                    +
#4
Systematize!
 Wash. Rinse. Repeat.
Managing a manual follow
   up system is hard

• Lots of different products and sites
• Very time consuming
• People are probably still going to slip
  through the cracks
10
But how do I make it
      easier?


        +
Yep, one of these is my startup.
It’ll be quick (and useful). I promise!
Framework Recap

1. Find personal opportunities to reconnect
