Do you send your hosts anything from conference, postcards, etc- and if so, what to you put on them, etc. Also, recruiting leads, do you mail anything to them from conference?
 
I always send a chicago postcard to all hosts and potential recruits
 
As a frequent conference attendee, I do like to show my appreciation to hosts by sending them a small token of thanks after the event. Usually, I will send a postcard with a personalized message, thanking them for their hospitality and for organizing such a great conference. I also like to include a photo from the conference, whether it's a group shot or a memorable moment, to make the postcard more personal and memorable.When it comes to recruiting leads, I don't typically send anything directly from the conference. However, I do make sure to follow up with them after the event, whether it's through email or a phone call. I find that this personal touch is more effective in building a relationship with potential leads rather than just sending them a generic mailer from the conference. Of course, if I do end up sending them information or materials, I make sure to include a handwritten note expressing my interest in working with them.Overall, I believe that sending a small token of appreciation after a conference is a nice gesture and can help strengthen professional relationships. However, I also believe that personal follow-up and communication is key in building and maintaining business connections.
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What materials should I include when sending information to conference hosts?

When sending information to conference hosts, it's important to include a welcome letter, an agenda for the conference, promotional materials about the products, and any specific instructions or guidelines they need to follow. Additionally, consider including a small gift or incentive to show appreciation for their role as a host.

How can I personalize my communication with recruiting leads?

Personalizing your communication with recruiting leads can be done by addressing them by name, referencing any previous conversations you've had, and tailoring the information you send based on their interests and needs. Including a personal note or message can also help establish a connection and make them feel valued.

What types of incentives can I offer to encourage hosts and leads?

Incentives can vary widely, but some effective options include offering discounts on products, exclusive access to new items, or a small gift for hosting a party or signing up as a consultant. You could also consider offering a chance to win a larger prize through a drawing for those who participate.

Should I include product samples in my outreach to hosts and leads?

Including product samples can be a great way to engage hosts and leads, as it allows them to experience the products firsthand. This can increase their enthusiasm and likelihood of participating in a conference or joining your team. Just ensure that the samples are relevant to their interests or the theme of the conference.

How often should I follow up with conference hosts and recruiting leads?

It's important to find a balance in your follow-up strategy. Generally, you should follow up shortly after sending your initial materials to confirm receipt and answer any questions. After that, consider following up weekly or bi-weekly, depending on their level of interest and engagement. Always be respectful of their time and preferences.
