The Stay Connected Method (Pre-Read)
The Stay Connected Method
Here, I show you how you are going to make sure you stay on people’s radar to be able to continue building a relationship with them. When you are constantly liking and commenting on people’s photos/videos on Instagram, the law of reciprocation comes into play and helps build the relationship further. At some point, you are going to get these people’s phone numbers and you need to do something very similar to stay in contact with the phone numbers. This is what I do:
Coffee Shop Convos (Every Two Weeks)
- I make sure I have an hour or two of free time just to do this task.
- I go to my local coffee shop and get a nice strong coffee.
- I find a nice comfortable spot I can sit in for an hour.
- I start texting every single relevant person in my phone. I mean… ALL OF THEM!
I text everyone saying something along the lines of, “Hey! Hope all is well with you. Sending some positive vibes. Keep killing it and doing what you do best.” This lets them know that you crossed their mind and builds rapport with them EVEN IF THEY DON’T RESPOND.
The example message didn’t really give them a reason to respond but that’s okay. If you’re texting hundreds of people, you don’t want to be in that coffee shop for four hours holding text conversations and getting lost between which conversation was which. Trust me, I’ve been there. An open-ended text may or may NOT get a response and that’s okay ???? They still see the text and see your name which helps.
