Grow your SmartGuy City Business Network by 50-100 Businesses in the Next 60 Days

Here is the absolute fastest and easiest way to grow your SmartGuy City Business Network by as many as 50-100 businesses in the next 60 days. Best of all, we made this strategy so easy, you don't even need a computer for this approach - we got it handled for you!

STEP 1  - BEGIN BY CONTACTING BUSINESSES YOU KNOW OR HAVE USED.

(A) Text Approach

This is the easiest and only requires simply sending a text to businesses you know or meet utilizing a special Mobile Card, set up to promote your business network. This can be handled directly thru Rudy (505) 445-3400, who will set it up for you so you can be utilizing it within 1-2 business days for only $150 per year paid to Rudy (very reasonable). 

Once set up, open up your Mobile Card and click the "Share with Others" tab at the bottom of the Mobile Card. Then, enter the phone number of the person and send it.

There are many business owners you already know included on your contacts of your phone, perhaps an accountant, acupuncturist, car salesman, veterinarian Auto mechanic, Church, temple or other organization, favorite restaurant owners, travel agent, bakery, auto detailer, doctors, dentist, carpet cleaner, chiropractor, mortgage lender, real estate agent, real estate appraiser, contractor, painter, electrician, Florist, Coffee shop, air conditioning repair, handyman, roofer, plumber, chimney sweep, pool man, maid service, opticians, auto insurance agent, health insurance agent, life insurance agent etc.

Also, think all of the businesses you meet every day. Instead of giving them a whole presentation, simply tell them something like, "The top businesses in the city are all aligning together in a massive business referral network, can I text you some information on it? (let them see you grab your phone and be ready to send them the text fast) What is your cell number?" 

NOTE: One of the reasons I really like this approach is (1) they can view it when they have time, (2) they can see all the SmartGuy can do for them, and (3) you get their phone number, so can follow up a day or to later if they didn't sign up to answer any questions and then after they sign up, (4) call to welcome them and ask them for referrals!

(B) Phone Call Approach

Make a list of professionals you have used over the last few years. To make it easier, start by looking at your contact list on your phone or computer, checking account and/or  credit cards. Do you have an accountant? Do you have a health, car or auto insurance agent you have been using? Do you have a landscaper, pool man, electrician or contractor you have used and happy with? Perhaps a real estate agent, since they typically refer people often. 

(Here is a list to help you get things started: accountant, acupuncturist, car salesman, veterinarian Auto mechanic, Church, temple or other organization, favorite restaurant owners, travel agent, bakery, auto detailer, doctors, dentist, carpet cleaner, chiropractor, mortgage lender, real estate agent, real estate appraiser, contractor, painter, electrician, Florist, Coffee shop, air conditioning repair, handyman, roofer, plumber, chimney sweep, pool man, maid service, opticians, auto insurance agent, health insurance agent, life insurance agent etc.).

NOTE: for a complete list of available SmartGuy categories (and to get more ideas), click the small "GROUPS" link at the bottom of the SmartGuy website. Also, make sure to start by making a list of everyone's name, occupation and phone number BEFORE starting to make all your calls. This will make it easier. The fact is there are probably at least 10-15 people that you (1) already know well (2) that you have already hired in the past or currently continue to do, and (3) that you trust will do a great job. Simply call them up and say the following:

“Hi (Steve), a bunch of us who live and work in (Beverly Hills) have decided we are going to grow our businesses, despite this economy, by sticking together and forming a massive referral network. In other words, we are all going to use, recommend and refer each other to everyone we know and I want you to join and get all the groups (electrical) referrals. Can you use an ongoing supply of quality referrals? (pause)

We all use a tool called SmartGuy that lists all our information, connects us together and makes it easy to refer each other. It’s only $99 for a year, which comes out to about $8 per month. Not bad for unlimited referral leads right?

All we ask is that you act fast because the group only allows one professional per category and I want to make sure you  get all the groups referrals. I don’t want someone else in the group to refer another (electrician) first. It only takes 2 minutes, I can add you now or...you can go to www.SmartGuy.com as quickly as you can and join.”

NOTE: If they ask you to sign them up, be sure to let them know (after) that if they act fast, they can also sign up for multiple categories or multiple cities for only about $8 per month each. If your in front of a computer, simply click the "GROUPS" link at the bottom of the page and enter their industry to show all the possible subcategories. When I called my insurance agent, he got 5 listings. Two categories in one city, and 3 in another.

STEP 2  - ONCE THEY JOIN, THE SMARTGUY TEAM WILL AUTOMATICALLY...

(1) Fill out their SmartGuy web page in detail for them, including more text and keywords to come up on search engines, using their existing website or information we can gather about what they do,

(2) Personally call them and go over it with them, making any changes they want, 

(3) Answer any questions to make sure they are very excited about being in the SmartGuy network, and finally…

(4) Ask them for the name and phone number of 3 - 4 people who they think would be a good fit for the network…after all, the more members that join in their city, the more referrals they will get.

>> >>> So you see, every time you get a business to join in your city, SmartGuy's team will help turn that single lead into an ongoing chain reaction of additional quality businesses in your city network (and commissions for you)!

NOTE: If you want to also call their referrals yourself, here is a sample script you can use when calling: 

“Hi (John), this is (Jordan) and I got your number from (Steve Smith) do you know him?  (pause) He asked me to call you and tell you what we are all doing. Steve has joined our new fast growing group of (Beverly hills) businesses owners that all refer each other and said (1) that you did great work, and (2) that you should get all the group's (painting) leads. Can you use more business? (pause)

The group uses a company called SmartGuy to list everyone’s information, connect them together and make it easy for us all to connect and refer each other. It’s only $99 for the whole year, which is like $8 per month. Not bad for unlimited referral leads right?

The key is the network only allows one professional per category, so if you're interested, I can add you right now and secure your spot (pause) or you can go to SmartGuy.com and join yourself.  All I suggest  is that you act fast because the group only allows one professional per category and (John) wanted to make sure that you had the opportunity to get al the the (electrician) referrals. It only takes 2 minutes, go to www.SmartGuy.com”

Of course, all businesses must still have a Google listing with a rating of at least 4 stars. Now if they don't have a google listing, you can recommend someone do it for them.  You will find a list if SmartGuy leaders to help them in the  “Google Listings”  section of our Facebook group. If they do have a google listing, but it is not quite 4 stars, there is another section on our facebook group called “Google Ratings” where you can post their google listing and leaders might give them a 5 star review to help them rate higher.

STEP 3 - CALL YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS (WHO LIVE IN YOUR CITY NETWORK AREA)

Call all your Family members that live in the same city and tell them the following:

“Hi (Aunt May), a bunch of us who live and work in (Beverly Hills) have decided we are going to grow our businesses, despite this economy, by sticking together and forming a massive referral network. In other words we are all going to use, recommend and refer each other.

I wondered if you had any quality business professionals you have used that you feel do excellent work, like perhaps a contractor, or a health, car or auto insurance person you have been using? Or an accountant, electrician or contractor? I just need their name and number so I can recommend them to everyone in our group to use. I am sure they would appreciate more business”

Write down their names and phone numbers and then contact them (Call or text as above) and SmartGuy will follow (as above)

STEP 4 - CALL YOUR CLOSE FRIENDS (WHO LIVE IN YOUR CITY NETWORK AREA)

(same as above)

SUMMARY

It’s that simple! Essentially, SmartGuy is a union very close to a family… a big family. If your uncle was a real estate agent and your aunt was an insurance agent, who would you use if you needed those services? Them right? Same thing applies in SmartGuy. Each city network is like a family of professionals, working together for the whole group.
