Are you ready to finally build the relationships that will make your success a reality?
I used to hate getting into rooms full of people I didn’t know.
I used to think I’m pretty good with people… but when you’d put me in a room full of strangers… all that confidence evaporated.
Have you ever felt the same?
Every entrepreneur worth his salt attributes a large portion of their success to the people around them. In fact, they met most of those people first at a party, or some conference or meetup.
When I think about it, I met 95% of the core of my professional network in 3 events!
Everyone I interviewed on the show, I reached through this core network. Every person on my masterminds, I met through this core network. Every joint-venture I was involved in, came from this core network.
3 events. That’s all it took.
Well, 3 events, and working the room to actually make those events count!
Two months ago John Corcoran shared with us the 10 Steps To Becoming A Business Networking Superhero. After than interview, John introduced me to Susan Roane.
John referred to Susan’s book, ‘How To Work A Room’, as “the bible of networking”. And today, she will show you how you can put your best foot forward next time you enter any room.
