NETWORKING IS KEY!!! ~success story~

Of course Dj great thread, you have learned how important networking with anyone truly is. Yes many of you have found that you never know who or whom you’re talking with.

This reminds me of a few tips,

1. Don’t judge a book by its cover.
2. You don’t have to like or be friends with someone to do business.
3. The strongest networks are those you build yourself.
4. Clubs, groups, orgs and Charity’s all do not share similar or like tactics of networking.
5. Be yourself, real business people can see a phony a mile away.
6. Be different and don’t always be politically correct. ( have Balls)
7. Other networkers are looking for strong relationships and confident people.

I want to not get off subject but #4 is something to look at and consider when joining or attending these groups. We may join a charity group to help the community but we really want to nail some work out of the deal. (Wrong) this is truly what we all want but you better know that it may never happen on the first one or even the second. People in these groups are not stupid, some are there for the same reason and some are there actually to help the community. There are others that want to see consistency from your membership.

I can’t tell you how many times I have heard people join and org or a groups and then bitch and moan about how 1000’s of dollars in work didn’t flow into their pockets.

You only make what you earn out of anything, Good post Dj, networking is one of the many things that make a successful person and life.

Yeah if everyone is only there to suck the life out of it, then it will be no longer.

I was in BNI for a while, which is a network group that is in many cities around the world.

It was great, I definitely got a lot out of it. It helps strengthen your network skills for outside the group as well.

Chris Where have you been?
 
The richest people in the world build networks....the rest are trained to look for work.

Someone very rich told me that. Can't remember who.
