Power Prospecting Tips for 2013

2. Develop a "Trade show" list. The best way to do this is to visit the association websites for the industries you sell to and make a list of tradeshows planned for 2013 for that industry.

Next, contact your prospects and/or buyers and ask if they are planning to exhibit at a trade show in 2013, and do they need help with a trade show marketing plan.

These two suggestions will help you to get a jump start on 2013 and are a good way to do something productive during the holidays.

Best of Success!
