The downsides are that the business flow from such things is unpredictable, and if you get business that way and the customer isn’t happy, it may hurt your company’s reputation. The key though is that by establishing personal contacts and being a useful contact in other ways.

For example, I provide educational presentations on various aspects of computers for individual users and small companies (my target market) that help people prevent problems – and save them time and money. When they run into a problem too tough for them, they are more likely to call me. In your case, you might consider a free seminar on building elements, plans, etc. for data center expansion. The folks who only need a small one won’t call you, but since you educated them, when it’s a larger project, or they’ve moved to a larger employer, they’re likely to remember you.

Hope that helps,

Bob
