Podcast #69: Referrals for a Lifetime

 

Tim Templeton, founder of www.consultinggold.com, is the author of Amazon bestseller “The Referral of a Lifetime: The Networking System that Produces Bottom Line Results…Every Day.”

In that book, which is a great read, there is a clear process how to go about getting all the referrals you could possibly need to grow your business.

This is based on Tim’s highly successful career as an entrepreneur - so this is not theory! It is solid information based on experience of what does and what does not work.

Tim’s belief is that many don’t feel comfortable about asking for referrals, as they do not see it as part of the contract with a client, which is deeply flawed-thinking.

More importantly Tim believes that it is a lack of process that is “high touch, scalable and delivers social proof”.

Tim is so passionate about creating systems and processes that he has been involved in the software www.refer.com which, as Tim so eloquently describes it, will not only “take you to the Promised Land, but will help you cross it!” Well worth a look if you want a system that is “high touch, and scalable”.

The other element of Tim’s work is helping authors bring their books to fruition. He talks about the importance of a book for “social proof” and this is a topic he discusses in more detail which you can listen to here.

The book Tim recommends is Flow by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi - an excellent read.
