Hey folks Keith Luscher here for another Prospect & Flourish Every Day moment. Hey I was at
a networking event the other night and it was actually at a fun environment a lot of
folks there, it was at a bar and restaurant. I was in the restroom washing up and this
other guy comes up to me and we looked familiar to each other, It turns out we lived in the
same neighborhood for a while. And he hands me his card and he says, "Hey my name is so-and-so,
and I take s**t for a living.
I looked down and one of the things he does is he's in the portable potty business. So,
I thought that's a rather interesting pitch especially for introducing yourself. And I
thought about it and you know what he is basically doing is he is not taking himself too seriously,
and he's breaking the ice in some cases. He's found a lighthearted way about talking about
what he does.
So, what opportunities might you have? What opportunities do I have? I don't know. I'll
have to give that some thought. But I thought that was a rather interesting way demonstration.
You don't always need to swear, but in the context of the situation, it wasn't any big
deal and personally it takes a lot to offend me anyway. So that's the tip I thought I'd
share and pass along. If you've got tips you'd like to share or questions to be answered,

And we'll see you tomorrow. Thanks a lot!
