Ep #057: 6 Ways to Marie Kondo Your Referrals

There is something really cool about being at a place in life when your name becomes a popular verb.  And for this episode we do just that with Marie Kondo, a well-known organization guru and host of the popular Netflix show “Tidying Up With Marie Kondo.”  #lifegoals

We take Kondo’s ways or steps to tidying up and getting organized and apply it to how we generate referrals.

Whether you know who Kondo is or not and whether you love or loathe getting organized… this episode will be special so sit back, relax and take a listen.

Here are some highlights:

Marie Kondo follows a process – 6 steps/ways – to teach people how to get organized, tidy up and stay that way.

If you aren’t familiar with Marie Kondo and her methods, check out this article from Good Housekeeping magazine.  I’ve also linked to her book below in the links section.

In this episode I walk you through how to apply her 6 ways to your referral process.

And because I walk you through an overview of her 6 steps and apply each one to a step in how you should approach your referrals, I created a free checklist you can download to make this super easy for you to follow along.
