Default Holiday Networking Tips?

What kind of "holiday networking" do you do? It's the perfect time of year when we see our friends and family. Are you they type of person that avoids talking about your business because you think you'll scare your family off, or do you jump all over them? Hopefully it's somewhere in between.

I'm curious...what do you use as an approach?

Just ask people what they do. When they ask you the same say I am a business coach and I teach people cash flow options where they can be self sufficient entrepreneurs. Then offer them a business card with your website and ask them more questions about themselves. Be confident!

I wouldn't jump all over them instead I will just tell them the basis
of what I do and if they are interested they can come over and
visit my website.

When they do that and have more questions, it's they who will be
calling you and that means they are ready and are now targetted
prospects.

But the downside of having family and friends being part of your
business is that if they don't work things out themselves which
usually happens, the relationship may not work out well for the
future...
