Follow-up with tradeshow contacts; connect, connect, connect
The three day weekend is over and it’s time for us all to get back at it. Does anyone else feel like staying in bed all day? But I can’t!!! Not even an option. I’m starting a contract job this morning for some extra cash, so I have to get a lot more done in the wee hours of the morning than I usually do. And I’m writing instead. But this writing keeps me sane, I highly recommend it as a start to your day.
The theme for today has to be about contact. I have to start following up with the people I met at the tradeshow. I have to contact my (clothing) sewing contractor and get a production plan in place. I have to find a pattern grader NOW. And I have to keep the blanket production in full-swing. So, with a new job, I think that’s plenty for me to focus on today.
As far as a plan for tradeshow follow-up, I need to get all the addresses into my business contact manager. I need to get everything backed up. And then, I need to craft the initial email I’ll send - make a PDF of our final catalog (must be attached); update our press kit and then start connecting with people.
That’s it, I’m stopping the “to-do” list there. I’ll be happy to be back home tonight. I guess I already said I wish I could stay in bed all day.
