When I first rocked up in Australia from Europe in early 2012, I had no contacts, no clients, no connections and no income.

I knew that in order to start up a business (let alone in a foreign country), that I was going to need to meet people and infiltrate my sector as fast as possible to get clients.

I also knew that the more potential clients I could get in front of, the more likely I was going to be to make sales.

More leads = more sales.

So I asked myself ‘how can I get in front of as many of my target customer as possible in the next 30 days?’

And the answer is… wherever they have left the safety of their office cubicles and are hanging out in masses….

dun-dun-duuun….

CONFERENCES.

This method of marketing and lead generation literally got me my first $1 million dollars in contracts!!

I know it’s awkward, terrifying and about as pleasant as chewing on a wasp – but meeting and talking to people works (shock!).

So swap your jammies for some shoes, and get yourself to some industry events, networking and conferences – preferably as a SPEAKER if you want to have a boost in your sales this year!
