While speaking with Bryan he gave some great advise, I didn’t write them all down, but here are a few major takeaway from our conversation:
-
- Go to networking events with the idea to see what you can give
- Networking is more about farming than it is hunting
- When you go to a networking event, seek to make a new friend every time
- When you give a referral, others will want to give you something in return (try it!)
- If you give a referral, make it easy for the receiver by preparing the prospect and being there for an in-person introduction if possible
- A few books Bryan mentioned:Endless Referrals; The Go-Giver; The Slight Edge
- Bryan’s group “Your Link to Local Business” is focused on the right mix of online and offline networking
