I&#8217;m <a href=\"https:\/\/zudigitest.com\/ellevatedoutcomes\/sarah-patton-exciting-announcement\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sarah Patton<\/a>, a Strategist for Ellevated Outcomes and a small business owner myself. I occasionally contribute to the blog, when we want to cover the popular topic of business development&#8230; which just so happens to be my strategy superpower. So today, I&#8217;d like to share a counterintuitive piece of advice, inspired by <em>Miracle on 34th Street<\/em>, that will attract more customers to your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a perfect world, I\u2019m imagining you\u2019ve all been following our Ellevated Outcomes <a href=\"https:\/\/zudigitest.com\/ellevatedoutcomes\/business-development-playbook\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Business Development Playbook<\/a> \ud83d\ude09&nbsp; Your efforts are paying off, and there are a plethora of upcoming prospect meetings.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You&#8217;re patting yourself on the back, until\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You review <a href=\"https:\/\/zudigitest.com\/ellevatedoutcomes\/attracting-the-right-leads\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">your prospect&#8217;s completed questionnaire<\/a>, or you\u2019re in the <a href=\"https:\/\/zudigitest.com\/ellevatedoutcomes\/quote-gate\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">prospect meeting<\/a> and hear a phrase that reveals this person isn\u2019t your <a href=\"https:\/\/zudigitest.com\/ellevatedoutcomes\/the-riches-are-in-the-niches-target-market\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ideal client<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Uh, oh. Now what?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Ellevated Outcomes, we&#8217;ve deemed the solution to this &#8220;The <em>Miracle on 34th Street<\/em>.\u201d Does anyone remember that movie? If not, let me give you the synopsis. It\u2019s (pre-Amazon) holiday season, and parents are frantically shopping for last minute gifts. When Macy\u2019s is out of the must-have toy for the season, Kris Kringle refers parents to <em>other<\/em> department stores where it\u2019s in stock. :: gasp ::&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It may sound counterintuitive (and initially, it certainly is to Macy&#8217;s executives); but it\u2019s rooted in an <a href=\"https:\/\/zudigitest.com\/ellevatedoutcomes\/money-mindset-bootcamp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">abundant mindset<\/a> that says: there\u2019s more than enough to go around. Amazed by Santa\u2019s candid response, this practice helps Macy\u2019s develop a loyal clientele who now trusts the brand more than any other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After all, people work with brands they like, know, and trust \u2014 and that includes having uncomfortable conversations. If you want people to rave about your company, even if you don\u2019t get a chance to work together, here are 3 steps to help you elegantly decline a non-ideal client and still be a hero (and wonderful human).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Be Honest<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Brene Brown says, \u201cClear is kind,\u201d and we\u2019re big proponents of this work. Do not, and I repeat: do not, cancel a pre-set meeting if you learn from a questionnaire that your prospect isn&#8217;t a good fit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instead, send an e-mail addressing expectations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hi there! While reviewing your questionnaire I noticed _____ (be specific about why they aren\u2019t an ideal client). While this isn\u2019t a great fit for our business, I would still love to have a meeting to learn more about you and your work. \u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This allows the prospect to make the final decision; and in my experience, the majority say, \u201cYes, let\u2019s meet.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, I\u2019m always a fan of connecting with new faces. You never know who that person may know or what services or product they may need in a year or two.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Be Prepared to Offer Another Solution<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the Kris Kringle game changer. While it may require an extra few minutes flipping through the rolodex, the reward is worth it. Come to the meeting ready to share one or two referrals for a solution who <em>is<\/em> the right fit for your prospect&#8217;s needs. For your reputation, always be clear if this is someone you personally know and can vouch for, or if this is a contact you simply know of.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re in a meeting and unable to think of someone on the spot, make sure to follow up in a timely manner with the contacts.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, take notice of the questions prospects are asking. Over time, you will be able to develop a shortlist for those FAQs. For example, if we&#8217;re in a prospect meeting and start to realize that <a href=\"https:\/\/zudigitest.com\/ellevatedoutcomes\/whats-a-business-advisor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">someone needs a coach (not an advisor)<\/a>, we have suggested life coach <a href=\"https:\/\/andreaowen.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Andrea Owen<\/a>, executive coach <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reboot.io\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Reboot<\/a>, and mindset coach <a href=\"http:\/\/laurenw.thinkingintoresults.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Lauren Weibert<\/a>. For people who need business 101 nuts &amp; bolts we often share resources like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pathwaylending.org\/about\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Pathway<\/a>. It depends on that person&#8217;s root cause needs and personality, for us to offer a suitable suggestion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Don&#8217;t be Afraid to <a href=\"https:\/\/zudigitest.com\/ellevatedoutcomes\/go-first\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Give First<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By generously sharing a contact or making an introduction, you\u2019re not only racking up good Karma, but you\u2019re also doing what is best for the prospect <em>and<\/em> your business. News flash: if they\u2019re not an ideal client, you\u2019re actually doing them (and yourself) a disservice. The client will not get the best version of your business, and you\u2019re not providing a top-notch experience, which will lead to a rift in trust.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By openly communicating with your prospects and being above-and-beyond helpful, you leave them better than you found them.&nbsp;And if referring business was good enough for Jolly Ole St. Nick, it\u2019s good enough for me too.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello!
