Simple Ways to Drastically Increase Your Stageside Leads

I came to Vegas this week to win big!

No, no.  Not on the poker table.  I’m talking about stageside leads.

I'm sending this later than usual, because I just got off stage an hour ago and as of right now I have garnered 0 - YES ZERO - stageside leads.

But, for the rest of us, we need to put in a little more time at each event to earn more stageside leads.  So… you’ve gotta stick around… preferably the whole day!

When you show up to an event and spend time all day interacting with attendees, you’re increasing your opportunities for those important one-on-one connections. Here are a few specific tactics to use:
