Rubber Chicken Circuit

Tastes Like Chicken, 4 Steps to Master the Rubber Chicken Circuit
By Beth Schneider

You've sent in your RSVP, forked out your $35 to $60, put on your favorite suit, grabbed a stack of business cards, and practiced your 30 second commercial in the mirror. You are all set to head out to meet your dream client over a plate full of chicken with brown sauce with mushrooms.

Then you are there, eating your chicken and wouldn't you know, your dream client IS sitting next to you. The next thing you know, you're making the rounds and you've got a pile of cards. You are excited as you mentally count all the dollars you just know will be filling up your bank account. Unfortunately, the reality is most people will never do anything with those numbers. The stack of cards ends up living in your purse, in your car or just sits in a pile on the desk. Can you see the dollars disappearing from your bank account? Don't leave your money on the table, or desk.

#1 So you've got a stack of cards in your hand, now what?
We all know that when we meet someone, we're supposed to smile, listen to what they say and then note on the card the date, where we met them and maybe an extra tid bit or two. But I don't want to talk about what to put on the card. I want to talk about where you PUT that card.
