I was cleaning out my file and I discovered this sheet of paper:

It was the follow up I did with the audience I addressed.  I just wanted an idea of how it went and if I should be presenting this speech to anyone else.   I reserved the URL; I put in on hold incase I needed to do something after the speech.  I got so many positive reviews and so many names of people who would like to hear a similar message, that I launched my business a week later.  I told my partner, Scott, that I would be leaving his practice.  It was good timing for him, because his practice was exploding!

This is interesting: Back in 2012, I included pens with the hand-out; I didn’t know any better!   I wouldn’t do that today.  I would just hand them my questionnaire and collect them afterwards…like I do now.  I didn’t know it at the time, but most people have pens.

I am still getting 25-60% of the people filling those out.  When I said “go to my website and fill out the form, I got 2-3% of the audience to fill it out; who knew.  I thought the high tech thing would work–nope!!!!
