LETTER OF INVITATION TO LETIP
Dear:
How would you like to have a personal sales force without having to pay commissions? When was the last time you received a business tip worth $100, $1,000, or even $10,000?
LeTip has been a great way for me to find new clients without making cold calls. Your business would be well positioned to benefit from the other professionals in the group. In fact, you can check out our website at www.letipofyardley.com.
Don’t waste your time socializing in the hopes that a business lead will magically fall into your lap. LeTip is clearly different, and in my opinion, far more effective than any service club, chamber, or referral group I’ve ever encountered. Founded in 1978, LeTip has over 400 chapters throughout the United States and Canada, and is dedicated to exchanging qualified business leads amongst its members. I invite you to see for yourself.
LeTip meetings start promptly at 7:01 a.m. and end at 8:31 a.m. sharp. There are no outside speakers and conflicts of interest are disallowed; however, some occupations may have overlapping aspects. As a member, you will be given the opportunity to speak about your business, display your product or service, and discuss your company with other members (your added Sales Force).
We meet weekly on Tuesday at 7:01 a.m. sharp at the Yardley Inn which is located at 82 E. Afton Ave, Yardley, PA. 19067. A breakfast meeting is a great way to start the day, wouldn’t you agree?
Very truly yours;

LETIP TIP QUALITY STATEMENT
LeTip of Yardley
Statement of Tip Quality
“My qualified business tip is a person or company that has a need for a specific product or service, and is expecting a call from a Letip member”.
Sounds like a pretty simple and straightforward statement, right? Yes, but…our chapter, after years of dealing with questions of what is and isn’t a tip, and the quality thereof, has crafted this document to further clarify our policies regarding that sacred act of passing a “tip”.
Policy on inside tips:
- NO inside tip shall be passed until AFTER the person with a genuine need for a specific product or service (not just seeking out professional advice or opinion, though that is encouraged) has met with / spoken directly with that “tipee”.
- Repeat purchases / visits / transactions with a LeTip member are eligible. Repeat purchases / visits / transactions with anyone else (including spouses and family members) are not.
- The chapter wants to maximize the productivity (as measured by $$$’s in pocket) and encourage the loyalty of the group through inside business, while realizing that the outside tips are what we are focusing on and trying to find for others in the group.
Policy on premature tips: “We shall pass no tip form before its time”
In cases where a “tipper” has not gained a commitment from the prospective client (or “tip”) to answer the call, that member shall wait until the tip has “matured” to pass the form. Remember, the “tip” has to be expecting the call, and furthermore, the member should be reasonably certain that the “tip” is actually intending to act upon it. If it is not certain that someone will follow through, or the lead is not very strong, then simply give the “tipee” the info, and then pass the tip form after successful contact is made. This will virtually eliminate 90% of the “bogus tips” that members often complain about.
Policy on “NO VALUE” tips:
The LeTip member receiving a tip must be put in a position where he/she can actually put $$$’s in pocket as a result of the tip. Often members pass tips (both inside and out) where the “tip” is “tire-kicking” or simply gathering information, with little or no intent to do meaningful business. In other words, the tip is for something that doesn’t make any money for the member. If the person receiving the tip can’t generate $$$’s in pocket, then that tip shouldn’t be passed. An exception to this is when a member specifically asks for introductions to other professionals as a way to find future, as yet unrealized business. For example, a referral to an estate attorney for the Life/Health insurance category might qualify for such a tip. There is no immediate $$$’s in pocket, but the introduction might cause that to happen at some time in the future. “NO VALUE” tips are BOGUS tips! If you are not sure if what you have constitutes a legitimate tip, simply ask the tippee. We are always glad to take that call from each other!!!
Policy on follow-up and reporting
Each member should report the results of the tip back to the tipper in a timely manner, so that the likelihood of doing business increases, as well as the understanding of how the “tippee” does business is enhanced. We should be prepared to tell each other why it was a good tip or not, how to qualify tips better, what “hints” or suggestions might have helped the member meet the needs of the “tip” better….etc. The more we know about how we do business, the better we will be at finding business for each other.
Policy on “resurrected tips”
Often a member will pass a tip, and the “tip” procrastinates, or goes in another direction. In cases where the member goes “above and beyond the call of duty” to “resurrect” that tip, that member shall be eligible to pass the form again. Otherwise, as a matter of policy, it is categorized as a “re-tip” and not eligible to pass twice.
Policy on inside vs. outside tips
The chapter strives to maintain at least a 1:1 ratio of inside to outside tips. All members are expected to strive diligently to uphold that ratio.
