Rainmaker Resource #8: How to Find a Person
The fastest place to generate business in a down economy is often by recontacting old clients. This is true even if they have changed jobs and you have lost touch with them. Payboxpluginreview.com provides a number of ways to find a contact you have lost touch with, as well as linkages to other useful sites, including the National Open Records Search Project. These can be added to those referenced in my post, Rainmaker Resource #4: Tracking Down a Contact. As before, my prefered way to find a lost contact is to call a mutual friend, which gives me an opportunity to rekindle a second relationship. For additional suggestions on how to rekindle a relationship see my post of May 5, 2008.
