Interview Review in 7 Days (Notice the Theme of Document, Don't Create, Service-Based Mentality, Cooperation, and the Sales Process) [ Audience, Product, Sales]

1. What Is Your Goal? Why do you want to interview people and what is your intention for getting to know others? What would you like to learn from someone whom you'd like to be more like? Do they genuinely have what you want for them to be a good candidate? This is thinking about the ideal prospect or person whom you would benefit in connecting with, and may be seen as easier when you are sharing a service. Your service right now is adding value through creating an offering of a free interview, which puts that person in a position to have a nice piece of content for media distribution. This can help them in their business, however, if you are using the Interview Review as a vehicle for a business opportunity and you have something to sell while providing additional value through conducting an interview, the Interview Review can greatly aid in the first few steps to the road to the sale. Our intention first and foremost is the development of self-awareness.
2. Preparing Questions - What's the target? What's your angle? How can you be of service and help them while also helping yourself? Can you ask questions that not only put them on, but help support your motives too? Can you give and receive and think outside the box as you do? These are preset questions that don't keep in mind the timing or response in your actual conversation, rather, they're something to fall back on when improvizing but should be relied upon to move forward along the agenda so you can meet your needs and theirs too while conversing. This may be an intelligent way of identifying the needs of the prospective client ahead of time before moving it to a sales call for your services.
3. Prospecting - The actual process of reaching out to someone has to be well-thought-out. Meaning, the person you connect with is either going to have the values that you seek need and want, or they won't, and that all depends on your selection. That's why you need to learn to recognize patterns when reviewing profiles, their fields of work or interests, pay attention to what they're posting and the relevance of that to them being your target. If they fit your target market for what you can give and receive, then you may have a conservation that will benefit the both of you. The process of finding these people will be explained in detail.
4. Preparation - There is great need for a CRM, somewhere to input information and keep track of your conversations in organized detail. If you don't apply yourself to productivity and efficiency in this, managing leads and making phone calls, you'll lose out on a lot of the experience and discipline including results and connections this opportunity has to offer you. You'll need a microphone of decent quality, a quality meeting and recording software, a stable internet connection, a place to meet that is a peaceful and non-distractive environment, and to set an appointment for the date and time as well as a device to have this conversation on. (video chat) Simply having a phone call greatly diminishes the benefits of human connection and the reflection of it that serves to benefit and enhance one's self-awareness.
5. The Interview - Open the conversation kindly, have a brief cordial conversation, and let them know how things will go before you hit record. Be sure to ask any question from a place of true curiosity and interest that opens them up to sharing whilst benefitting them and motivating you. You are essentially learning people, and hence, learning yourself in the process. Using preset questions and valuable improvization, you will learn to lead and guide a conversation to get what you want, information, and take control of the narrative you are engaging in. Making it cordial, fun, and valuable by being present, focus your attention on truly getting to know them and the positive aspects you value in them. Share that, relate to it, and ask questions that dig deeper into your consciousness and peaked curiosity connection, which will satisfy their end of the conversation. While doing this, open up your CRM and take notes or record what they are telling you by typing it into a document. At the end of the call, mention where they can be contacted, thank them, and stop the recording before you continue the conversation. There, you can ask for a few more things that may be of help to you. You want to acknowledge them and your appreciation for their vision and how they're making an impact in the world, how you can see yourself working with them through having this conversation and would like to share some ideas you think will benefit them. By doing this, you open the conversation to a continual relationship and a potential client of what you are offering, which means the next time you talk you will be going for a presentation and to close the deal. So, just setup another appointment and let them know you'll have some things you'd like their feedback on for after their call that you will be sending them. This gives them anticipation and the opportunity to provide reciprocated help to you, therefore developing a positive relationship.
6. The Survey - A valuable add to keep the conversation going throughout the process of serving them can be an online survey reflecting how you did and anything you can do better. This is extremely valuable to have, as it allows them to self-reflect on the conversation and why they enjoyed getting to know you, why this was a positive exchange, and they too can begin to more greatly value you and what value you have added to their day. You can give this to them after the interview while they are waiting for you to process the posting of it.
7. Customer Relationship Management (CRM) Tool - What information you have put into this database is all you will have on the record to go by as well as your most recent memory and the newly recorded interview you just filed to help you to reflect on and summarize all the reasons and points covered as to why this person is worth getting to know and or working with in their business. Put great care into this and the organization of it, as well as the information you think is necessary. Even copied text from the conversation will help you write up something that will benefit them and you upon reviewing before posting to an audience. Remember that this tool is critical to following up and through with a lead for your business, your friendship or relationship, or anything moving forward with the monitoring and tracking of your progression.
8. The Interview Review - Why you post, how you post, and where you post matter. You're literally bringing out the positive aspects of the person you just spoke with using your CRM, typing it, formatting it for attention, positioning it to their audience and yours, packaging it by putting it into an empathized perspective where you and others can relate to their mission and vision, and who they are as a whole, and promoting it by sharing it for their benefit. This is branding them, creating a little product of your own that you are selling just through getting to know them. And the great thing is you're documenting. Instead of creating what you're not, you're giving them the spotlight and growing on the spot. You're just loving the process of sharing your world and theirs as you both continue to grow, together. Remember, this is for their benefit, and you're making the effort to give it. By going over the information you just took in, you're self-reflecting and problem solving to absorb that content even further, valuing and integrating these qualities that you want in your integrity moving forward, and then displaying them as if they are you because you're going to become more like them through the values which you seek. This is being that which you are seeing. The good parts anyways.
9. The Post - When it comes to the post, you'd be uploading a video, typing up the promotional content, tagging the person involved, and sharing it publicly on your page as well as adding it to any groups you may be involved in. Another thank you comment on that very post would be nice sharing details informing viewers if they'd like to get in contact with this person, as well as any useful links related to contacting them and their business. Then, just direct message them about updating them on what you've done and how you're looking forward to your next meeting discussing X topic on X date. Something to look forward to.
10. Client Member Retention - This is maintaining the relationship. If they're good for you, great! Start thinking of ways to cooperate, and not only cooperate, but collaborate. Where do you see them in your life? Everybody has a unique position, so if you want to continue speaking, find a purpose and a reason, or explore that more through getting to know them better. Keep in mind these people are online, so unless you can maintain a connection in this way with the integrity of your network and what you plan on accomplishing, then don't stress yourself. As an offering, you can mention Motivation to Speak and how you're doing this thing where people can share free stuff in the group, and how you would love to have them be a part of the community.
