Leveraging Connections for the Greater Good
An interesting phenomenon seems to be taking place; the better connected I become, the more people ask not only to connect with me but to also test their new services. I am privvy to new technology which is almost curious given I’m not a techie. Even more enlightening is that I’ve become a great admirer of a few of these new services.
From a sales and creative perspective, I am able to understand how my colleagues may best use these new services. Simply by continuing to do what I enjoy while remaining in communication with those I admire, enables me to make high quality introductions. The nice part for me is that I know reciprocation is in the works.
