Divide your products or services into four areas.
Which of the four do you talk about most frequently in 7-Minute Presentations and InfoMinutes? Why?
Is it because:
from the Paulding Team
Loans and understanding credit are the areas I talk about most frequently, because yes, it is a large part of my business. It is also an area of interest for my team. I do feel lending is an area where I bring a lot of value to my team and my clients because loans can help people achieve financial goals: buying a vehicle, renovating a home or consolidating debt. Loans can help businesses expand, manage short term cash fluctuations and expenses. The topic sparks interest from my team which can lead to referrals.
from the PowerCore Team
Words. I talk about words most because InfoMinutes are the thing that makes the most difference for referrals both inside PowerCore and everywhere we are asked about our business.
And words are a signification part of referrals - InfoMinutes, INTROMinutes, 7-Minutes, Referral Triggers, Invitations, Endorsement Letters, Referrals - words matter.
Words make a difference.
Words create referrals.

Listing Homes - Listing homes is the service that helps my business grow. Listings provide more exposure to new clients and buyers. I enjoy the process of evaluating home sales around my new listings and help the homeowner determine what they need to do so their home will sell quickly and profitably.
I can’t talk about essential oils without talking about the psychological or emotional impact it has on us. Many of the chronic health conditions that people are dealing with today have an underlying psychological or emotional component. Research has shown a connection between childhood trauma and gut issues as well as inflammation in the body. No matter if a client came to see me for a chronic or acute physical condition I will always look to see if there is an emotional connection there as well. Our sense of smell directly affects our limbic system, the part of our brain that controls our emotions. This is why the inhalation of essential oils is so powerful, it can literally have an effect on the chemicals in our brain.

I have four specific consulting products (listed below), and the one I talk about the most is Happy Employees.
It is the most important for an effective business, and also the most frequent need I see - and those two facts are not coincidence.
My clients must have the foundations in place for a stimulating and positive work environment, or else no other effort, investment, or project will ever reach its full potential.
That is why this products sits at the top of the list:
The four services I talk about the most are problem solving, clients, design ideas and fee structure. I speak mostly on problem solving because it's the area where I bring the most value.
I manage social media for both individuals and companies. In PowerCore meetings I typically focus on LinkedIn management. The reason: I find PowerCore members are more likely to refer LinkedIn management than other forms of social media management. I believe this is the case because it's just much easier to refer someone that needs LinkedIn support than company social media management.
once an individual is referred to me it is much easier for my team to expand that service to company social media management.
I typically discuss home insurance, auto insurance, rental property insurance, and insurance for offroad vehicles the most. The one I talk about most frequently is the home insurance. Not only does it make up about 30% of our business, it is the most profitable. I feel I bring the most value here because of all of the claims situations I have been apart of. Home insurance has a lot of different endorsements and coverage's tht typically aren't discussed, that can provide a customer value and security knowing they will be covered if something happens.
We only have 4 main services, so I speak about them equally. The four services are Local Search/SEO, Review Marketing, Targeted Paid Ads and Social Media, these bring the most value to our local businesses to give them a better online presence.
General Liability:
Workers Comp:
Errors & Omissions:
Commercial Auto:
I find I talk more about General Liability because it is more than 50% of my business and ALL businesses need it. It makes up the majority of the protection any new/existing business needs to have to be more protected. It is typically the most profitable and lt leads me to the other areas of their business. The other three that I mentioned. I bring the most value to clients through general liability because I have focused more on it in the last 4 years of my insurance career.
from the Peachtree City Team
The subject I talk about most frequently is gaining control of your finances.
Budgeting, Debt reduction, Saving (both short and long term) all contribute to ways in gaining control over your finances.
These are foundational to overall health in your financial plan.
I have done a couple of 7 minute presentations on Down Payment Assistance programs becasue the group has asked several questions as a result of my info minute topics. The borrowers I have been able to help wound up using GIFT FUNDS becuase the DPA programs are not currently pricing favorably. However, I feel it is a good topic to get referrals becasue it shows I have solutions and can talk to the prospects about other down payment options.
The first time home buyers account for about 30% of my business.
Every loan is profitable becasue it leads to customer referrals. I have 1 first time home buyer who has referred at least 3 friends to me.
I do not have a quota for this.
The Alternative Board portfolio can be divided in four main areas or tools. The business Owners' training tripod:
The one I talk about more frequently is the Board Meeting. This is when and where the members get and give advice from and to their peers. The core of the TAB offer. While the other two tools of the tripod are developed between the member and the coach, the Board Meeting benefits from the collective wit and wisdom of the group. Perhaps 150-200 years of business experience helping each other.
My 4 services
1. House Trash-outs
2. Apartment trash- outs
3. Appliance pick-ups
4. Furniture & Cardboard pick ups
I talk about house/apartment trash outs the most because it is most profitable and I have good stories to tell. I have an adventure at each property I go into.
from the Paulding Team
Entry doors
Patio doors
Single doors
Windows
I've only done 1 seven minute but entry doors are what I do the most of because they are more affordable and people see them first when they come home. Windows for more profitable but I do probably 50 doors to 1 window job.
