I have observed that many of us don’t understand strategy that can give us an edge so I would like to advise on JUST 2 EFFECTIVE STRATEGIES out of about 7 that I have tried. Maybe this can help you in 2022. Please read this carefully. Thank you. [If you want the full length of strategy session, we will do this as a BSG Full Session in 2022. If you have not joined BSG, do so like yesterday.]

If you have ever attempted to send BULK EMAILS to your leads or prospects, it is most likely you have used MAIL CHIMP.
More than 90% of Nigerians DID NOT KNOW they needed or wanted MOBILE TELEPHONY. In fact, as at 1999 when GSM was approved by the Federal Government of Nigeria, I was 20 years old and all my knowledge about telephony was limited to NITEL and NITEL PHONE BOOTHS.

“SOBCA at 5” Anniversary events kick off tomorrow (Saturday) and we are more than glad. We are grateful too.
The colloquium holds tomorrow. We had 135 registrations for this event alone. And we sent a private email invitation to them and mentioned the sponsors of the refreshments we are having. The sponsors have branded their meals with their contact details so that AT LEAST 100 CONTACTS will become POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS of these vendors. If these vendors do their homework of following up and up-selling properly, that is a LIFETIME VALUE OF A CUSTOMER ACQUIRED AT THE COST OF SPONSORSHIP.
