Um... I don't give up... ever! I am super persistent. So here are some top tips on how to get rid of me if you don't want to hear from me ever again.
I only pitch to you if I am completely and utterly convinced that what I have to offer will serve you well and make a difference in your business. When you work with me you will find I work very hard to ensure that I deliver the results I promised and then some! I won't sleep at night if I am letting you down so you can be sure I will go out of my way to deliver the best possible results.
So, when I get in touch here on LinkedIn this is my motivation - to do quality business with you and unless you reply with any of the following I will pretty much persist until I convince you of why we should work together.
Here is how to get rid of me:
1 - Answer my message, don't ignore me because I will just find another way to reach you and then another and another until we have made contact. I don't accept lack of contact as a no as I don't know if you have even heard what I have to say.

2 - Explain why not, I am incredibly good at objection handling so please don't say things like you don't have the budget or the time because I will just prove how I can save you time and money! Please be honest, let me know why you really don't want to work with me. I will respect what you say and learn from it.
3 - Be direct, I am very direct, don't have time for fluff, you can be direct with me too, I don't need things sugar-coated. I won't waste your time, please don't waste mine.
4 - Last resort if I just won't go away is to unfriend and block me. I don't think we will get to that as I am actually really lovely to work with and very committed to serving the business community and your company.
On the flipside, I am very open to exploring business opportunities, I love a good idea and even collaboration ideas, if you send me a message and tell me why your offering is best for me I am likely to take your call. I respond well to those who persist but when I say no it is a strong no but I am happy to explain why.
I understand that this post is not for everyone, the green and blue temperaments will probably recoil at this, the yellows will make fun of me and the reds will give me a high five. No matter what your response, I promise, I have some fantastic opportunities for you to either a) support your female staff or you if you are a female leader and b) showcase your business regardless of gender through our conference & awards.
