There are all sorts of methods for networking, and we're going to talk about a few of them in this episode! This was inspired by Benjamin believing that he doesn't network in a traditional way, but it was his years of networking efforts which allowed him to successfully leave his job with a list of clients and contacts he could start working with immediately.
Sophia, on the other hand, has recently taken a more traditional approach to networking by joining BNI. BNI and other networking organizations like Chambers of Commerce and Rotary give business owners a more structured environment in which to network, but its still work nonetheless. And this can be incredibly effective especially for introverts who are reluctant to go out and network organically.
While we have both networked differently, the results have been the same: strong business relationships which allow us to build our businesses.
And here is an important point from Ben: Even if you do not like your job, or don't believe in the work you are doing, always give it 100% and do your best. The people you are working with now could be important contacts in the future.
