Panhandler Tip # 1

Do something that gets the potential client to notice you.

• Give something out to someone deserving. Provide a free download on your web site that tells about your business and its abilities to enhance your potential customer’s life.
• Be willing to trade or barter knowledge or skills that have value. Offering to provide a service for others willing to return in-kind that benefit provides an opportunity to build a relationship.
• Be gracious and accept willingly all gifts. Acceptance and gratitude are qualities of caring individuals that see the potential for mutual benefits in collaboration.
• Show that you have quality and will be there to support their growth. Being consistent in your actions and continue to present your skills beyond the customer’s expectations speaks volumes for longevity of service.
• Illustrate your sincerity. Always do the right thing or better yet do more than you are expected to do by looking for methods to increase those around you in whatever manner.
