If you follow me on Facebook, you will notice that all of the six and seven figure entrepreneurs are always in pictures with me at these live events. Why is that? Because they have also figured out a long time ago that these events are SO much more than just learning experiences. In fact, the networking and business development opportunities are just as important, if not more important, as the seminar content.

Which is why we are so surprised to hear that this challenging economy is forcing some small business owners to think they need to cut back in this area. Many entrepreneurs claim they are finding it difficult to commit the time and money to seminars and live events. And those of us who understand the return on investment are baffled! This would be the LAST place we would ever cut back.

Don’t hinder your growth any longer. Here are the 3 reasons attending live events and seminars are vital to create visibility, credibility and revenue for your business:

1. Keeping Up on Cutting Edge Business Strategies To Save Time and Money
What you don’t know CAN hurt you.
When you fail to keep up on the latest trends and strategies, you are likely NOT moving you and your business forward. Sure you can do a ton of the research yourself, but do you have the expertise to actually put those learnings into practice? Most importantly, do you have time to make these strategies to work? You MUST rely on subject matter experts. They will guide you in ways you could never dream of – saving you a TON of time and money. And, different from purchasing a home study kit or other info product, attending an event enables you to fully immerse yourself and walk away with the know how to put an action plan immediately into place in your business model.

2. High Level Lead Generation and Sales Opportunities To Gain Revenue

Yes, the knowledge I gain from events makes them worth every penny. But, it’s the connections I make that make them “worth their weight in gold”. Where else can you spend multiple days with other like-minded business people who may be ripe for a possible partnership or even a potential client in the need of the services you are offering, both of whom represent huge business building opportunities? I leave with a minimum of $10,000 in instant revenue and sometimes upward of six figures over time from each seminar I attend. In fact, at the last two events, I added on extra days at the hotel because I booked face-to-face, all day VIP coaching sessions right there on the spot.

3. Connecting with and Learning from Colleagues
Experienced event goers know that the real magic happens in the hallways. I spend so much of my time at live events and seminars socializing with colleagues and potential JV partners. And yes, much of it is really just talking and catching up on what’s new in their lives because over time you develop personal relationships. But, I’d be remiss if I didn’t admit that there IS a strategy to it. Seminars really are a unique opportunity to keep your name and brand top of mind within the industry. You get to share about what’s new in your business and remind them of your advantage to customers.

Do remember though, to tune into station WIFM (What’s In It For Me) and find out how you can support them in their business growth.

The Golden Rule as it is most frequently expressed is: “Do onto others as you would wish them do onto you.”

Creating VIP treatment—the kind you would like to experience yourself—is the secret to acquiring affluent customers, keeping them coming back AND making them raving fans who will tell their friends all about you. Here an invaluable tip to uplevel your services for the affluent market:

Create a Ritz-Carlton Level of Service. Sweat the “small stuff” and create a Ritz Carlton customer experience. The Ritz Carlton’s standard of service is what sets the hotel chain apart from its competitors and establishes it as a world-renowned leader in customer satisfaction; a position any company in any industry can aspire to achieve. The Ritz Carlton’s “Credo” simply translated here, is easily employed and are sure to inspire confidence:

“We pledge to provide the finest personal service for our customers who will always enjoy a warm, relaxed, yet refined ambiance. The Ritz-Carlton experience enlivens the senses, instills well-being, and fulfills even the unexpressed wishes and needs of our guests.”

Continually delivering a level of service above and beyond expectations is the cost of entry with the affluent and it will set you apart from your competition as well.

Correctly leveraging the six “P”s of marketing will establish a consistent relationship with your affluent customers.  One of the most important of these “P”s is Price. Obviously, your pricing strategy is the framework to your business plan because it ensures you create the financial situation of your dreams.  However, the price you set for your services does more than establish profits, it makes a statement about your value proposition.  Did you know that the affluent want the best, the fastest, the first, the one no one knows about and believe it or not, they love to boast about paying the most for something?  When determining your price, consider the following.

“P” is for Price —  How do you determine a price for your product or service? What are your overhead expenses? What are your production costs? What is your competition charging? What would be a fair price in the marketplace? We know that the affluent don’t shop on price, but on value.   Determine the right price so your clients will buy and you will profit. Check your net earnings over time and make price adjustments as necessary.

Establish a need, build credibility, and ultimately drive sales and build profits for your business with a consistent and strategic marketing effort leveraging the 6 “P”s.

Marketing using the “P”s of marketing is crucial to establish a relationship with your customers and communicate clearly and consistently the value your services.  “Positioning” is imperative to this effort because it is the way you express your product’s benefits and attributes.  The affluent have the money to buy anyone’s products or services.  You must market to their values to truly resonate and convince them to buy yours. Here’s what you must keep in mind to create effective “positioning” that speaks to who they are and what they want.

“P” is for Positioning. How is your product or service perceived in your market vs. the competition? How are you differentiating yourself? Have you formulated a positioning statement to use in all your promotions and marketing activities? A clear positioning statement must precede and promotional efforts as it is the cornerstone of all company communications. A well-crafted positioning statement defines your company’s direction and expresses how you wish to be perceived. It will be the core message you will deliver in every medium to create clarity, consistency, and continuity in the way your organization presents itself to the market.

Remember, marketing consistently is the essential key to establish a need, build credibility, and ultimately drive sales and build profits to your business.

Top grossing entrepreneurs are those who are highly effective at integrating all aspects of their business—from customer service and administration to business strategies and marketing activities. Of all the necessary elements of a successful business, marketing may stand heads above the others, because it needs to be consistent. Whether sales are up or sales are down, marketing must go on….especially, if you are marketing to the affluent.

The “P”s of the marketing mix form the core of your marketing strategy. Let’s start with the first “P” you must know to effectively market to the affluent, a critical recession-proof target that values your expertise, is willing to pay premium prices and grows your business by referring you to all their friends and contacts.

“P” for People: Who specifically are you targeting? Are they affluent, mass affluent, ultra affluent? What are their likes? Dislikes? What is important to them? Do they have a specific passion for golf? Travel? Spas? What will they value and be willing to pay premium prices for? You must be able to write a clear and distinct profile of who this person is in order for you to be able to effectively market to them.

Marketing is especially challenging in the service profession where your product is often “intangible.” Therefore it is particularly crucial to establish a relationship with your customers and communicate clearly and consistently the value your services offer to them using the “P”s of marketing.
