Tip of the Week
I'm so grateful to Teresa Thomas-Carroll of MN Women in Networking for the following idea: Want to know where your ideal clients hang out? Just ask!
In other words, when you encounter a prospect who's right in your sweet spot, ask her or him, "Where else do you find it valuable to network?" Chances are you'll get new ideas of where to find more people just like that one. Talk about a BFO (a Blinding Flash of the Obvious)!

How's This for Success?

A huge part of successful networking is being able to focus on what's important to your prospects and clearly tell them how you relieve their pain. Another success factor is claiming your strengths and letting people know just how good you are at your work (without being an obnoxious braggart, naturally).
Here's a chance for you to tell your story. E-mail me with a success you've had. While a networking story is ideal, I'm also interested in stories that showcase other ways you've been able to grow your business - or yourself. Keep it short, sweet, and focused on the benefits you provided to your client. I'll post it in an upcoming issue of Nuggets, which will give all of us a chance to learn from your success.
