Sam, welcome back to BNI and the Power of One. Thanks for joining me again today. Back with our weekly presentation coaching episodes where we review submitted weekly presentations, try to get feedback to make them as effective, effective as possible. You can leave yours@bni power of1.com and I hope you continue to do so. Today we are hearing from Michelle Gagneer. She is in Florida, does not say how long they have. Oh, let me open it up here because it's coming via word documents. So 45 seconds. So this is Primrose BNI poem, 45 seconds brought to you by Chat GPT. This is back in September. So, okay, so I'm gonna read this. I. I could tell right out of the gate just because it's a BNI poem that I hope these things happen all the time. I am not against doing them every once in a while. I hope it's not something you're going to do on a continuous basis because I don't find them to be super effective. But we'll see. And it says brought to you by ChatGPT. So this will be interesting. And I do think that there's some value now in AI platforms helping you design your weekly presentations, but you got to be very careful with them. You don't want to just jump in and say, you know, write this for me because there's not a lot of standard training examples, etc. That are going to be online where the AI can pull from and become super effective. But we'll see. I don't know. So anyways, 45 seconds. So Michelle, I'm going to read this, I'm going to time it. You and I will do it at different speeds. We'll see how it goes and feedback off of that. So here we go. Mold Inspectors. The season's near claims pile high. The work is clear Instead of stress and falling behind Primrose Solutions brings peace of mind. Our pricing simple. No tears to guests. We streamline billing to cut the stress. Just 12%. 12% of the invoice due. Send files and claim info. We'll chase it for you. Need documentation wrapped up tight. It's just 200 acclaim done right. So if you know Mold Inspector swamp today, Primrose can help them ease the way. This week I seek across the USA Mold Inspector Mold Inspectors ready to scale and play Primrose Business Solutions where admin meets action and payments gain traction. Okay, cute. I guess it was 40 seconds. So you still get a little bit of time. I'm going to be honest with you, I'm not entirely sure. What you do and what you're really offering based off this. Now keep in mind that may not be a bad thing for me because I'm not in your chapter. So you might and you should never write a weekly presentation for the people who are not in your chapter. That's why I don't like changing it up when there are visitors in the room. I don't like trying to say certain words to, you know, trigger the visitors or get them. It's really about training your sales team which is the members you meet with on a regular basis that you have the business relationship with that are actively wanting and trying to find you referrals so they should know what you do again, as long as you're not doing poems every single week and as long as you're doing your, your one to ones and everything else. So the fact that I'm not super clear on what it is you do may or may not be an issue for you, but I'm not very clear what you do. It would seem to me that you offer backend admin support to do invoicing and chase bills for companies and you're looking for mold inspectors as that company. So with that I would say it's specific in your sense of focus because I'm assuming you can do this with a bunch of different companies and so mold inspectors would be a specific focus there because it's written in a poem style. It, it's almost written. It's definitely written as for the most part like you are directly speaking to a mold inspector. I mean it starts literally as mold inspectors like I'm talking to you. The season's near, claims pile high. The work is clear and I, I cut the stress and you know, even one line here says send files and claim info, we'll chase it for you. So that becomes very sales driven in sense of like you're targeting mold inspectors that might be hearing this and you're not going to have many of those, if any of those, you would only have one in your chapter potentially. But because it's kind of written that way because it's a poem and because it's got a rhyme and that kind of stuff. So I think you, it's got. Look, this one's hard to review because I think it is not something that you would be doing on a normal basis. I think it is a fun, light hearted, different attempt sound, different kind of approach, which is fine. Those things are fine. They're not going to be super effective though. So I would leave it at I don't want to pick it apart entirely because I don't think this is a normal weekly presentation. I think it was and is an attempt to sound different, have a little bit of fun with it, make it a little bit cuter, stand out a little bit, all of those things. And it's probably going to do that. I do think I couldn't write a poem like this. I don't know if you can. It says, brought to you by Chap Cheap Beatty. So I think it did a good job there. But it's not going to be super effective in getting the mold inspectors for you. So I would always caution everybody to really be thinking about that. There's always the temptation to sound a little bit different, do something a little bit fun, you know, change it up. Because we gotta fight the kind of complacency and boredom we face ourselves in talking about our business in this way. And so I get that. But ultimately, not that it's entirely this, but it's almost a throwaway weekly presentation for you, because I don't think this thing's really going to help anybody in your chapter find you a referral for the mold inspectors you seek. I just don't think it's going to do that. I do think it's. If there was a mold inspector in the room, it's definitely going to, you know, it's going to target them a little bit. I think you're teaching them that you want to work with mold inspectors, but after that, it's very salesy to a mold inspector. So it's not teaching me like, okay, how do I get into a conversation with a mold inspector? How would I know a mold inspector has the stress that you're talking about? How do I know that they're in a need for your product and service? And if I figure that out, how do I bring you up in a way that's going to be effective to get you the actual referrals? Right. It's missing all of those elements of what a what of what is the real purpose and focus of a weekly presentation, which is to train people how to find you with a referral you're looking for. So it's on, who are we looking for? It's on, how do I identify them or how do I identify somebody has that need and what do I say to them when I identify that you're not really teaching any of that. I mean, I can get it if I said, well, I'm just talking about that they're stressed and that they're behind on their Paperwork and Right. But it's not really training me on how to identify that I'd want to really be effective. It'd be more straight line. I'm looking to work with mold inspectors specifically. These mold inspectors come up with an example. This is a busy time of year for them. They often fall behind in their paperwork or billing. You're going to hear these kind of comments or things. You can ask your best friend who's a mold inspector or your friend that's a mold inspector. Hey, I heard this is a really crazy time. Is it? You know these. Can you ask these types of questions and make these types of introductions? That would be a more direct training approach that I think would be more effective in actually getting the referral you want for it. But this is a fun kind of light hearted different way of doing it which is fine. Time to time. Really infrequently. If you rely on your weekly presentation to be this way and there are members I've seen who do. It's. It's not. You're not going to get to the level that you want to get out of it. You just won't. You might. What will happen now? They say this too is a lot of times these types of weekly presentations. If your chapter does a, you know, best weekly presentation of the week type of award these are the types that will win it because they are different. They're fun and they're cute and they're all that. But they're not really the best ones because they're not really effective towards the. The ultimate goal. So anyways, I really appreciate you submitting it. I do think it was fun. If it really was written completely by Chat GPT that's kind of interesting. And again a tool that I have to learn more about myself. So I can't speak completely to it. I use it from time to time. I've never used it to write a weekly presentation. It would be interesting to try it out and see what it comes up with and where you would tweak it and everything else. Maybe we'll do a podcast on that someday if there's interest in that. But I do really appreciate you submitting it and I hope this was helpful in some ways for you and for everybody else. Same thing. Go to bnipowerofone.com submit yours. There is a true difference in the learning of hearing it coming from somebody else and being able to really listen to it because you when you write it yourself and you say it to yourself you're not really listening to it either. So do that, and I appreciate it. And if you, if you are finding value out of these, leave a review, share them with other members. Help us help more BNI people. Have a great day.
