0:00stop wasting your money on business cards.
0:01You don't need them.
0:02Anybody who's ever told you that is lying to you.
0:04I just spent one weekend networking for 12 hours a day
0:06and came back with more leads than I've ever had before.
0:09And I didn't bring a single business card to this event.
0:11I walked on with no business cards
0:12and just collected the cards of the people I wanted to.
0:14Because if you're handing out business cards,
0:16you lose control over the follow-up process.
0:18You don't get to reach out to who you want to reach out to.
0:20It's up to them to actually reach out to you.
0:22When you collect business cards,
0:23that puts you back into control of the follow-up process.
0:27And most businesses actually lose leads
0:29in the follow-up process.
0:30So getting the business cards is just a little extra thing
0:33that you can do to have a little bit more control
0:34of your own company and website.
0:36If you want to figure out how you can fully take control
0:38and own your website and not rely on agencies,
0:40follow along here,
0:41because I'm just here to share all the advice
0:43I've learned over running my own agency
0:44and want to give it back to you guys.
