There is a right way and a wrong way, and on today’s episode I’m telling you what the right way is so that you get the most out of this essential aspect of business.

Points to Keep In Mind

It’s not what you know, it’s who you know
A certain minimum amount of extroversion will make you happier
If you isolate yourself too much, you will not be as happy as you could be
If you want to make money, you’re going to have to network even if you’re an introvert
Diversify who you learn from
Always hire people who have skills that you can’t teach
Organisms that only learn through trial and error tend to die out
Anyone who is hard to talk to is probably not worth talking to
Think of yourself as a goldminer, going through life looking for the nuggets of truth you can find from anyone

The 7-Steps to Better Business Networking

Realize that you are underestimating the power of business networking
If you are not good at networking, attach yourself to someone who is good at it
Get phone numbers instead of emails
Don’t be crazy about follow ups
Follow the reciprocation rule: Speak their language, respect the way that they communicate, and follow those general rules
Leave them hungry for more of you. Don’t be afraid to let them be the last person who texted you
Go to places that are somewhat unexpected for who you are and what you do. Try to cross-pollinate. Focus less on what the event is, but more on how sharp the people are
