Lise Howe SOI is a super-set - Past Clients are part of that super-set. SOI does include many more from your sphere - and one needs to treat some of the past clients as A+ if they have sent many referrals and as 'C' client if they have send none.

Surveys of India?

Structure of Intellect?

Secretary of the Interior?

Saturn Orbit Insertion?

Spear of Influence? 

Did you know there are 74 "official" acronyms for S.O.I.?

I had a long day and had no idea what SOI was for a few minutes, even though I say Sphere of Influence daily...I'm just saying.  

 

SOI is my past clients, present clients, incubated clients and all referral partners in my world.

Good morning Lise. The extent of my marketing is my blogging efforts, it produces all the time, some new and some from past clients.

I put my database into categories - A, B & C.    I contact the clients in the A category much more.   Marketing is done by the reason the direct mail is for.   I sent out post cards end of December to gain listings, and only sent to those that have been in their home for longer than 2-3 years.

Yes I do.

In this way:

1. those that resulted in income (past clients)

2. Past clients who have referred friends, family and workmates

3. SOI who has referred friends, family and workmates

4. SOI who engages me in borderline discussion which includes all of AR.

5. SOI whom I frequently question, "What's their kids names?"

6. Those in incubation

7. The rest of humanity.
