Ask yourself this question: There are people waiting to help you why aren’t you meeting them.
The right relationship can be worth millions of dollars to you.
Grace and Charm Insight: “Networking is a lifestyle, not an event.” Walethia Aquil
In today’s business world, now more than ever it is important to build relationships.
Relationship currency can catapult your business to the next level seamlessly; the right connections can earn you millions of dollars. If you don’t network your business will dry up.
- Reasons people don’t network:
- Unsure of the business and social protocols and formulas to making introductions.
- Uncomfortable initiating conversions and engaging in small talk at social functions with people they don’t know.
- Don’t feel at ease work a room, don’t know how to mingle and interact with strangers.
1. First change your mindset about networking. Networking is not about how many cards you can hand out or how many you collect. As a matter of fact the fewer cards you hand out the more you will seem to others as someone who has power and influence, someone they will want to connect with.
2. Change the way you think about your contacts. Seek to add value to your contacts. Seek to give not to receive. Successful networkers spend more time connecting others and being resourceful than they do looking for clients.
3. Choose the right event. Join organization that your ideal client belongs to. If you are an account, only attending events your peers attend won’t expand your network very much.
