FROM “DO” TO “HELP”
We are all good at describing what we do.
Is that what people buy?

WHEN NETWORKING…

“I help people like <…> with <…> ” Practice so you are ready with examples

RESEARCH FOR PEOPLE WITH SIMILAR NEEDS
Who has similar needs? Find their details; Ask for an introduction or referral.
![Page 24: SFiO Global chapter 2017-02-22](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042707/58ce86901a28ab210a8b6aa7/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

TELL THE STORY
When you are networking… Ask for the referrals where you have
measurable evidence Be ready to tell the story The story “resonates with others” and
“compels them” to find you the referralQuote – Dr Ivan Misner,
Founder of BNI

UNLOCKING REFERRALS
Now you know how you help… Two approaches
1. Evidence of Success2. Evidence of Need
![Page 31: SFiO Global chapter 2017-02-22](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042707/58ce86901a28ab210a8b6aa7/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Copyright © Business Services Leeds Ltd 2017
LOOK FOR THE NEED
We all look for signs for ourselves so…
Educate your network to look for these observable signs – and think of you.
![Page 32: SFiO Global chapter 2017-02-22](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042707/58ce86901a28ab210a8b6aa7/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Copyright © Business Services Leeds Ltd 2017
YOU SHOULD HAVE…
1. What you look for yourself (an observable need) to identify a client;
2. A measurable outcome you have delivered elsewhere;
3. The supporting story.

FINDING REFERRAL PARTNERS
Can you take the help approach and go up a level in the chain?
How do you help those who help your direct prospect clients?

MULTIPLE REFERRALS
Think of your best recent customer
Who else helps them?Do they help others like
them?
![Page 41: SFiO Global chapter 2017-02-22](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042707/58ce86901a28ab210a8b6aa7/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

EXAMPLE
Accountants work with lots of businesses
We want to talk to Accountants so they can introduce us
Ask yourself the following:

REMEMBER – THE NEEDS
What are the needs of the Accountant? How do you help them? If you help them, they could be Referral Partners

Potential referral partners help prospective clients.
Work out how you help the referral partner.
Ask for referrals based on how you help them.

RESPONDING TO ENQUIRIESHave you ever received one of the following:1. “How much for…?”2. “Could you please provide…?”3. “Can you deliver…?”
…followed by a quantity of what you do?

CLIENT OFTEN PROPOSES THE SOLUTION
Can I have a price for xyz?
How do you know xyz is what they want?
The price should be the last thing you discuss!
![Page 48: SFiO Global chapter 2017-02-22](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042707/58ce86901a28ab210a8b6aa7/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)

FROM NEEDS TO OUTCOMES
We need to establish how the customer wants things to be after our intervention.
![Page 49: SFiO Global chapter 2017-02-22](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042707/58ce86901a28ab210a8b6aa7/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)

SOME EXAMPLES
Does the builder build the extension without finding out what it is for?
Does the carpet layer supply the flooring without establishing what room it is going into?
Do we deliver training without finding out the differences the client is looking for afterwards?
