Networking grows increasingly complex with the explosion of social media channels and technology. In turn, what worked in the days of our parents and grandparents to bring people together may not be enough today. The authors of this book want to give you some key ideas, skills, and tools to improve the quality of your networking efforts. Networking is not rocket science but people knowing who you want to help and then finding ways to connect to those people who are looking for that help. Networking is the lifeblood of a successful business, and those who master it reap fantastic results. This book will give you its secrets, and once mastered, will bring you the success you so rightly deserve and desire.
