I happen to know a lot of people. I know people in nearly every job profession across the board. I know or have met people all across the country and most of the people are always willing to meet someone new.
The skills are teachable, learnable and definitely usable! It takes a lot of energy and follow-up but it's worth it in the long run. Here are some of the valuable hook ups I've made; some have brought me finders fees, some not but here they are:
? I've gotten up and coming stars an agent. One turned into a regular gig on the Rosanne Barr show after I got him an agent. Others have made money for years from their public lectures.
? I've gotten many people on radio and TV because I introduced them to the hosts or the producers or the publicists
? I've helped financial companies recruit sales people
? I've helped financial professionals meet new clients
? I've introduced men to women and women to men. (There's at least 1 marriage but many great relationships were established!)
? I've introduced two TV news anchors in the same city who are on competing stations and I've never even been to their city!
? I've helped friends and clients get tickets to great events, meet top notch lawyers, meet Business partners, helped get items for silent auctions, and helped moms find good babysitters.
Networking is the answer to your problem. If you need to meet more people, hire more people, recruit more people or sell to more people, you can either become an expert networker or hire someone who is. Why cold call when you can be walked in the back door? Working smart can save you time, and it can make you money.
Its time you start doing what the stars have known all along. It's not who you know, but who you can GET to know that matters. Then its all up to you!
