The Marketing Machine(R) for Professional Services - THE WORKBOOK: Endless quality referrals for lawyers, accountants, consultants, and more (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781692606824)

Our first book in this series, The Marketing Machine(R) for Professional Services, built on the premise that referrals are the life blood of professionals. And now, this WORKBOOK version gives the professional services provider the means to put the principles to work.

Whether you are getting too few referrals, or too many of the wrong kind, if you are relying on friends and associates for referrals, you may be sowing the seeds of disaster for your firm's competitiveness and profitability!

As a professional services firm, your marketing success will be measured not by the volume of 1^st tier referrals, but from 2^nd and 3^rd tier referrals . . . recommendations by people who have no direct connection to you and who know you only by reputation.

Great insight, but how do you make this work? By approaching the challenge systematically!

The Marketing Machine(R) for Professional Servicesprovides the background for building your sustainable practice.The WORKBOOK adds a step-by-step playbook in the form of simple questions that pinpoint the essentials for YOUR firm. There's room for you to write your answers. Complete the workbook on your own schedule.
