How a Humble Guy Like Andrew (from the Bible) Can Help Your Sales and Marketing Improve!

Who in the world was Andrew, and what did he do that can improve your sales and marketing?

If you read John Chapter 1, you will see that Andrew was there. He met Jesus, and saw what He was doing, and realized that He might be the Messiah that Andrew's people were expecting (searching for- needing to find).

What did he do? He went straight to Peter and told Peter that he (Andrew) thought he found the Messiah. He then proceeded to go with Peter to see the two of them (Peter and Jesus) get introduced (or linked in?). And if you know scripture, and the relationship Peter and Jesus had as a result, then you know this was a significant "introduction" that is still bearing significant consequences today - in our time!

Did you know you had a similar humble, servant-like yet powerful influence you can use to bless others this week?

Do this activity, and in fact, try to make it something you do every week or two (or more). It will not only be exciting, but you will grow your own business as you bless others (by thinking of them first - being servant-hearted).

1) Pray and think about people that you currently know.

2) Think about other people you know who could potentially have overlapping interests, expertise, or even skills that could solve problems for the other person (even if you are unaware of any problems)

3) Contact both parties and find out when you can introduce them to the other (another friend).

4) Make it happen. A referral is easy to do and does not necessarily lead to fruit. HOWEVER- an "Andrewing" is more powerful and you can sometimes see instant fruit while being there to pray for and bless the formation of a new relationship that could make a big difference in both lives.

5) Follow through with both to find out how it is going. I almost guarantee, that if you do this often enough, the blessings will grow for everyone involved. Also, you can experience a better sense of being a part of building real fruit that lasts. . .

Please share real examples of "Andrewing" here.
