Here’s your “QuoteAction” of the day:
“If a man does not make new acquaintances as he advances through life, he will soon find himself left alone; one should keep his friendships in constant repair.”
Author, Dr. Samuel Johnson
Your action for today is to invite one of your acquaintances to lunch.
Oh my Goodness! This is such a great action item for business networking. I always to try take at least one person to lunch every week! If you are about improving your networking skills, then this action item is very easy. Pick a potential client, business partner or even a vendor and invite them out to lunch. Usually I try to schedule 2 or 3 lunches with people who are in my network and sometimes I even will put together several people who I think should know each other and head out to an easy luck time networking event! You never know what can happen at these simple lunches but I can tell you since you have to eat anyways, why not network while eating that sandwich? Something else you might consider is connecting with someone in your area you are connected to on Facebook or linkedIn. Just this morning I saw that one of my Facebook friends is here taping a new show for her company and when I saw it on her page, I shot her an email and now we will meet in person in about an hour!! Invite someone to lunch at least once a week! If we are not connected on Facebook, I would love to see you there! Maybe we can even go to lunch? Casey on Facebook here.
Have an extraordinary day!
Give someone an AWESOME day!!
