FAITHFUL GUARDIAN
A Great Way to Grow Your Business
TRAINING CENTER
By Scott Flanagan, SAF, LLC
A
s a small business owner of a bookkeeping and tax service in Dallas, I have many responsibilities. We have many clients to service, administrative responsibilities, and a host of other duties to perform. Like many small businesses, our marketing was limited due to financial and time restraints. The question became, “How can we grow our business without the resources that bigger businesses have?” The answer was quite simply: Networking! Let me explain:
I am a member of a networking group that has approximately twenty members. We provide for each other a “sales team”. I now have twenty people helping me promote my business, and of course, I am a promoter for their businesses also. I enjoy this because many of the members provide services that also help my clients.

In addition to promoting each other businesses, we also focus on growing and learning together. Training is an important part of our weekly meetings. Each week a member “trains” the others with a marketing technique that has benefited their particular business. Each week I learn something valuable. Also, we spotlight a member’s business each week. For example, when my business was spotlighted, members not only provided referrals, but also gave me ideas about various ways to expand my business.

As a group, we also try to do community events, and I have found it not only rewarding for my business, but a great way to learn more about my fellow members. Our group feels that if you position yourself as a resource provider for others and do this consistently, then “what goes around does come back around!”
