Leveraging The Power of Caterers & Other Vendors

Isn’t it great when you don’t have to do ANYTHING, and people call you and give you money?! Well, that is the point where I am at my business. I turn down leads that are too far away, not lucrative enough, etc because I get soo much business (even in this economy!) And one way I do that is through leveraging other vendors…

Very early on in my mobile bartending career, I knew it was very important to be contacting other established vendors and build synergistic relationships with them. That means DJ’s, caterers, wedding planners, etc are all your biggest allies.

Today I get calls based on referals from caterers or third-party venues, etc and I don’t have to do any work! They book me on the spot…EASY!!

You Must Give In Order to Recieve!

So here is how I was able to do this, even when I was BRAND NEW! Here is my step-by-step procedure:

1. I created a list of vendors in my area who looked LEGIT & established

2. I created a “Preferred Vendors” page on mh website and added them

3. I then called each of them up and showed them their link on my site. I told them I was looking for good “synergistic relationships.” And asked if they would make a good fit for MY customers. (They always say YES!)

4. The Law of Reciprocity immediatly sets in and they are more than willing to do the same.

5. I also email them an email with all of my business information.

6. I then MAIL them that same information along with a stack of my business cards!

Now…who is gonna say no to THAT!

Can’t you do the same thing?! It’s easy right!! NOW, you have a ton of caterers, DJ’s, etc and they all have customers who ask, “So, you know any good bartenders?” hmmm…..YES!

You also need to build up relationships with 3rd party venues! but that is another topic for another time…
