I have another simple way that I use my mobile.
I’m not sure who said it, but I really believe that in a great many cases what they said is true: “Greatness is really about doing the ordinary, everyday things, consistently well.”
For example, if you invite visitors every week, week in, week out, to your chapter, they will come to your meetings. I invite people every week, using very simple methods, and I average about one visitor every couple of weeks. I really believe that it’s all about being consistent and keeping it simple.
And, that’s where my mobile comes in again. Okay, it’s not the textbook way of inviting (people you know, using their name), but it’s another visitor stream that when added to my other inviting helps to give me my results.
I have a simple message on my mobile: ''If you can handle more business please give me a call. David.” And when I’m out and about and see a mobile number on a sign-written van, or similar, I just send a text.
Now I have to admit that the returns are low, but it’s simple, takes no time, and the few visitors I do get with this method are worth it.
What do you think? Plain crazy?

Say if you sent 20 messages how many call backs or texts would you get?
Have you tried mentioning in the text where you saw their van? That might increase the response rate.
