Can I Borrow Your Car?

How Successful Financial Advisors Grow Their Business and Love Their Life

By: Mike Garrison

Narrated by: Robert Plank

When someone sends you a referral it is like them lending you one of their cars. They are risking something precious to them, in this case their reputation and relationship with the person they are referring, but they are doing it because they know you and trust you. They expect you to take care of it and return it in the same or better condition.

Referrals can be the key to a business-changing network of connections and self-generating opportunities. You just need to be the kind of person others are comfortable taking that risk with and you need to make sure you don’t wreck their ‘car’. In Can I Borrow Your Car? Mike Garrison takes you through the key points of making yourself a dependable and desirable target for referrals. Learn how to focus your energies and strategies to maximum effect, build and nurture referral networks of the right contacts, and to find fulfillment through changing people’s lives for the better.

If you want to become people’s go-to source for solutions and success, to be a concierge of problem-solving contacts, then this is the resource for you!
