Here are more ideas on leveraging your time:

Develop a basic interactive presentation. Then, if you get asked to speak, you can adapt it to any audience without having to do a lot of work to prepare.

Don’t worry if you aren’t attending networking meetings. My colleagues like to tease me in saying that I built my coaching practice without ever attending a networking meeting or shaken anyone’s hand. 

In truth, I did attend one networking meeting – my first and last. If you think about leveraging your time, networking meetings are not very efficient.  I would prefer to spend the time writing an article that can potentially impact thousands of people. But if you enjoy networking meetings, be my guest, well, actually not MY guest, but you know what I mean . . .

Do look for like-minded people to affiliate with. These are the folks who are already serving your ideal clients. Find a way to work together. Ask them to post your articles. Offer valuable information on your website so they will want to list it as a resource. Or invite them to become an affiliate of your programs. Create a win-win!

Ask for referrals. There is nothing wrong with being direct. Let people know what you are doing, and ask if they know anyone you can help.

Create samples of your services. Record a teleclass and let people listen to it from your website, or on an audiopodium (like a long voicemail message). That way, they get a chance to hear what EFT is, and what you are all about. If they resonate with your style, they will contact you.

Build relationships with others in your field. Discuss openly your specialty areas and make agreements to refer to each other. To do this effectively, you need to be able to talk about how you can help people.

Get help – from people who know what they are doing. Going it alone is not efficient, so don’t try to figure everything out by yourself.

Leverage technology – Learning technical skills will pay for itself over and over again. Keep pushing the edge of technology. Just keep challenging yourself to keep learning.
