Prospecting Top Tips

With great power comes great responsibility. Here are some top tips on how to use Penny+.

1. Focus on Building Connections 💜

Quality over quantity is the key when it comes to prospecting and building connections. Just because you can now add everyone from a social media to Penny doesn’t mean it’s in your best interest. 

Adding too many people to Penny will make it more difficult to focus on building the genuine connections in your account. You only want to add connections to Penny that:

• Have expressed an interest in your business
• You’re committed to creating a genuine connection with
• You have the capacity to nurture this connection right now

2. Message with Intention 🌟

Penny+ allows you to instantly message people from Penny on your Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn. Before you hit send, you need to make sure you’re messaging with intention. 

Before you hit send check:

• Why you’re sending the message 
• You’ve personalised the message
• You have the capacity to genuinely build a connection with this person

Prospect with intention and be mindful, just because you can add and message everyone doesn't mean it’s going to help grow your business.
