Follow up first with the contact, then with the person who gave you their name. This will

encourage your partners to continue to supply contacts for you because you do act on those

contacts and appreciate it enough to call back and express thanks.

sTraTeGy 6-16:

determine what to act on first.

step 5: Prioritize the ideas.

What often happens after a good session is so many great ideas are generated that

some people feel overwhelmed. We have seen situations where people have needed weeks

to act on the ideas.

Here’s what we recommend after the session. Look at your list and evaluate the

ideas. Categorize them into A, B or C ideas.

A = Great idea-will act or implement now

B = Good idea-will act or implement later

C = Good idea-not scheduled for action at this time

Get moving today.

You can’t aim a duck to death.

step 6: Move into action.

How many times have you seen something on a store shelf or read about some

exploding idea and remembered you had that same idea, but never did anything about it?

How many people thought about a game like ‘Trivial Pursuit’ but never got around to

making it happen? Well, a couple of beer-drinking movers did. They revived an industry

that was all but dead.

Begin acting on the A’s immediately. We find that if you delay more than 48 hours,

you won’t act on the idea. Do something with the idea the next day. It might just be to re-

work the idea or write someone a Thank-You note for coming up with it in the first place,

but do something.
