About this book
Everybody wants to connect, but not everybody knows how to connect. Inside, you will find the secrets uncovered, myths dispelled, and hundreds of ways to interact, connect and score. You'll learn things like where to network for the best results, how to network once you are there, and how to follow up so that you capitalize on the connection that you have made.
This is a business book and a life book, not just a sales book. You will learn how to make the initial connection, how to capture the opportunity and how to build rich relationships that last a lifetime.
“If you make yourself valuable and memorable, others will want to make you part of their network.”
Jeffrey Gitomer
Book Excerpt
Personal Branding is...
- Creating demand for your product or service indirectly. (Through means other than direct marketing.)
- Getting the business community to have confidence in you—as a respected, high-caliber individual.
- Getting the business community to have confidence in your business—and earning a reputation for quality performance so good, that it's talked about.
- Establish yourself as an expert. Why just be in the field, when you can be perceived on top of it?
- Being seen, and being known, as a leader. Standing in front of the group, and telling them. Or getting involved in a group and leading them. Showing up where everyone is, all the time.
- Being known as an innovator. Being known as a person or business of value. Being known as a resource.
- Separating yourself from the competition. Getting in front of the pack and setting the standard.
- Gaining professional stature. Your image is determined by others. Your outreach determines your image.
