6. things to do before an event

1. Be sure to diarise the time and the link at least 10 minutes before the event starts .

The facilitators are usually on early and often you get a chance to connect before.

2. Create a LinkedIn , Facebook and Insta Post

and add your it during the event - via comments - hashtag the name of the event #referronlive

3. See who else is coming from the “Referron live group Rolodex “ on Referron - 

Identify the people you want to meet with - add them to your Referron connections (from their profile on group - just press add connection ) and from Referron, open their card and send a note either on sms, WhatsApp or email - saying you’re looking forward to catching up !! (Create a template to make it easy :) ) Here’s a video to show you how to create a template on Referron https://youtube.com/shorts/feURvjAG84E?si=vWZTfSNS34bEzj8j

4. If you haven’t done so already - Be sure to download referron (at www.referron.com).

Share your business card with a few people in your network , and make a couple of referrals , to get a feel for the app https://youtube.com/shorts/N-EUlNsoGBw?si=JTzfx4VQ5izhBBuX

5. Comment on Socials

Be sure to like and comment and share relevant posts - here’s a few of mine - feel free to comment or create your own posts and hashtag #referronlive

About Thursday’s forum 

https://lnkd.in/p/gvBCkw6T

Commenting on other people’s blog is a super powerful way to increase your centre of influence with those you want to connect with . They are creating content so people can comment - (give them what they want and you will get what you want ;) 

6. Invite others that you know like and trust to the event.

your host and organisers will appreciate you big time if you help bring others in your network to the event. Treat the event as your own .

For those 50 legends who were lucky enough to book for the next #referronlive, see you on Thursday morning Sydney time .

Stories Can Make You Referrable

Another pearler from that legend , Ivan Misner - the guru of referrals and networking :-

If people can’t remember you, they can’t refer you. 

One of the best ways to become more memorable is through storytelling. Instead of trying to explain everything you do, share one specific story about someone you helped and the difference you made. 

A good story creates connection. 

Connection creates recall.

And recall creates referrals. 

But step 1 … be referrable … create your Referron card with your details and superpower - she that it is super easy for people you know like and trust to refer you on .


be sure to #referron
