How important are your social and personal networks to the success of your business?
ОглавлениеNetworking is HUGE. One of the things I did last year was join Success in the City (www.successinthecity.com), a local group in Washington, D.C. The lady who founded it is Cynthia de Lorenzi—she’s so fabulous and calls herself the head diva. The networking group is founded on women doing better in nurturing and supporting each other—we socialize differently than men, who play golf, as an example. Talking and nurturing relationships are how business gets done with women…that’s what we do. A lot of referrals and work I do now is because of having these different relationships with other networking groups. The other networking group I participate in is Work it Girl! Networking, headed by Supergirl Teresa Young, (www.workitgirlnetworking.com). They have great speakers come and talk about their business or whatever their passions are during lunch. There’s no membership fee, you just pay for lunch and meet some great women!
