How Was Furk Today?
July 1st, 2010 by Richard
In the latest copy of Spice magazine I spotted an article about Furk. Spice is a trade publication about events, incentives, conferences and exhibitions.
In the article, Kirsty Spraggon introduces the idea of combining FUn with woRK =FURK. She suggests that you should make an effort to get to know your clients a a level deeper than just business. As your relationships develop, spending time together is less about work and more about enjoying the relationship.
Her top tips include:
- Combine a meeting with walk or a game of tennis or golf.
- Use you iPhone to keep your networks up to date via Twitter or Facebook.
- Combine business meetings with a coffee or lunch at your local cafe.
- Host an annual client function such as bowling, a movie night, a picnic or wine tasting.
- Bored with the office? Take your laptop to the beach, park or favourite cafe.
- When working from home, play yur favourite music and rather than dressing in the corporate uniform, stay in your PJ’s and uggh boots.
- Load the numbers of your top 100 clients in your mobile and give them a call just to say hi next time you have a spare moment, such as when your driving (use hands-free of curse).
Evelyn and I love what we do and so I guess we furk too. We enjoy the freedom our lifestyle allows us and love spending time with people who are here to make the most of every moment. See if you can squeeze a little furk into your day.
