Bring The Right People
The goal is to find ways to build business together; bring the right people to maximize your results! Be sure to not only bring senior leadership but also account staff who will manage the relationship going forward.
Be Prepared
Meetings are short (20 minutes) so do your homework in advance so that you can jump right into the meeting.
Specify Companies You’re Open To Meet With
We recommend ranking 20-30 organizations to ensure the algorithm has plenty of preferences to go by when filling your schedule.
Be Open
Matchings are based on mutual interest. Your schedule may include some companies you didn’t select. We ask you commit to those meetings because, on the flip side, we’re asking the same of your top selections.
Show Up
Don’t skip meetings; you will leave people in the room waiting for you for 20 minutes.
Leverage Downtime
Breaks in your schedule are a good time to grab a cup of coffee or prepare for the next meeting.
How Do I Choose Which Companies To Meet With?
Choose the companies with whom you wish to meet on the basis of:
- Importance of issues you wish to discuss with particular companies
- Not enough opportunities to connect during the year
- Opportunity to meet with new companies and/or learn about new product lines
- Consider a balance in meetings between large and small companies
Will I Get Appointments With Everyone On My List?
The software assigns meetings according to mutual selection as a first priority. Please understand that your schedule will not include all of your top choices, and will include some companies you did not select, but selected you.
Why Are There Companies On My List That I Didn’t Select?
The EBE concept only works if every participating organization is willing to take some meetings with companies you didn’t request. In return, you’ll get some companies on your schedule that you really want to meet with that didn’t include you in their own rankings.
