Attracting New Members
Each time you share about STN and encourage someone to attend a Mixer and become a member of STN, you have done several things for that person beyond the credibility it brings you within STN as well as your local community.
You have shown them a program they can get involved in that WILL help their business grow that is FREE. This is a gift to that person because most people are trying to figure out an affordable way to get their name and their business out to the world – you just gave them an answer.
Because the way STN teaches the Know, Like and Trust principles, you have given the new attendee a safe environment to grow their business and to have the opportunity to create relationships with people that can become their customer, client, referral partner, business partner, support team and possibly their accountability partner. Absolutely nowhere else is this done by design but through STN.
While using technology (the internet, social media etc.) you are offering them a place to meet people in their local community and there is no better place for someone to do business. In this process, you are supporting & building your community by telling people about STN.
While inviting people through your sphere of influence, whether you do it online or offline, you are showing them something they have never seen or been a part of before STN. You will be their hero because if it wasn’t for you, they wouldn’t know about STN.
When you do this, you become the 20% of the 20/80 rule and your credibility and recognition will go through the roof with STN both online and offline as well as your local community because STN has made such a huge impact in your community – you will stand out from the rest of the crowd.
Referral Program
Successful Thinkers Network offers an online recognition program that will help give you exposure on the STN website, along with other awards and accolades to recognize you for your efforts.

Attracting New Members (Offline)
There are several ways to invite people to your business mixers. When you take the time and effort to do this, you will get recognition both online and offline. This is huge for you and your credibility in your online and offline community not to mention our STN online yellow pages, which will help you be found above those who are not referring new attendees. As an entrepreneur, you should do anything you can that will get you positive recognition – this will add favor to your potential clients, your business partners and your trust.
Here are some examples of ways you can promote STN to your local community:
You can hand out that have the day of week & location of the mixer with your ID# on it, etc.
You can hand out a personalized business card with your name and title with STN.
This program is designed to work with local business owners and expose STN to a large amount of individual.

Going to local businesses and inviting (partner up with a fellow STN member and make it a fun competition!)
Personally invite 2-3 friends & co-workers each week to the mixer – offer to pick them up and bring them with you. You can also share STN with your friends and co-workers that are not in your local community by encouraging them to become a member on the site and finding a local STN mixer in their area.
