Hub You - Don't Let Summer Season Distract You From Solid Networking
According to U.S. Census data, there are over 4 million households in America with a net worth value above $1 million (apparently this number excludes equity in your first home). While many of us believe wealthy Americans inherited their wealth, or won the lottery, in actuality, 80% of the millionaires surveyed by the Census Bureau did not inherit their wealth, and about one-third of them achieved financial success by owning their own small business. An interesting book on this subject is The Millionaire Nextdoor, by Thomas Stanley. Although it is several years old,
Try to get a group of people together to form a basketball or softball team in a league. By interacting with other professionals in a fun environment, you’ll get to see a different side of these people and you will form more of a personal bond.
If you’re looking for an activity to do with clients other than dinner, take them to a baseball game or some other outside sport. Your clients will appreciate this gesture and your relationship with your clients will become stronger.

Interviewing is often perceived as being about the candidate. Makes sense – the candidate is the person being interviewed after all… True, but the interviewer is the person making the decision. Who are the most important persons in an electoral debate? Is it the two presidential candidates that are debating each other? Wrong! Why are those candidates on television? To convince each member of the electorate that will eventually cast a vote on Election Day.“The person making the decision is the most important person. It’s that simple.”Although thi
The summer provides you with additional opportunities to network in more casual environments. During these months, you need to be creative with your networking because there aren’t as many professional events taking place during this time.
Social Events
Many organizations don’t hold professional events during the summer. Instead, they put on more social events so you’ll get a chance to interact with people in more relaxed and enjoyable locations.
Don’t let these types of events stop you from attending functions. Social events are fun and a nice change of pace because they are less formal.
Social events are usually produced by networking organizations, your employer, friends or business colleagues. Take advantage of these gatherings because you’ll get to mingle with these people in a way you may not have before.
Many types of social events occur during the summer especially ones that take place outside. Some examples include happy hours, charity events, sporting events, informal gatherings, dinners and boat cruises.
Because these events are very casual, you probably won’t talk as much about business with people. Rather, your conversations may be about general topics such as the news, sports, hobbies and family.
By having conversations on a more personal level, you will learn some interesting things about other people. Therefore, you should connect with them fairly quickly. In order for networking to successfully work, you need to form a bond with people. Social events are a great avenue for this to happen.
Summer Hours
If you’re one of the fortunate to have summer hours at your employer, use this extra time to your advantage. With summer hours, you have the chance to leave work early on Fridays. Make sure to use some of this time for networking.
With an extra half day each week, you can use this time to attend networking events, set up meetings, interview for jobs or even golf with business colleagues. The great thing about summer hours is you can do all these activities without having to worry about time conflicting with work hours.
Of course, you should leave some of this time for yourself to have fun with friends, family or just to relax. Just remember that this is valuable time for you to network with others as well.
If you’ve been trying to set up a meeting with someone in your network and have had a hard time finding a time to meet during the work day, use Friday afternoon to set up this meeting. Since you won’t have to go back to work, you don’t have to worry about the length of this meeting. This will make you more relaxed.
No other time throughout the year offers this kind of flexibility. Enjoy this arrangement with your employer while it lasts.
Sporting Events
The summer is a great time to enjoy outdoor sports such as baseball and golf. Take advantage of the warm months to get together with business colleagues and enjoy watching or playing sports. If you have summer hours, use some of this time to watch a baseball game or play golf. Whatever sport you decide, it’s a good time of the year to socialize outside.

What's your USP? Don't know, or worse still, you've never heard of it.USP is an acronym for Unique Selling Proposition. It's vital for every business to identify its inherent USP or if it can't identify it, to create it.If yours is a firm that sells gold coated widgets and there are NO other firms selling the same product, then you need not worry about your USP - you have one by default. The default being that you have a market monopoly. Provided the product is in demand, you can charge just about any price you like and you have no worries with

It’s no secret digital signage to this point has been a child amid grown-up media outlets. But a couple of signs have emerged that indicate this new medium may be reaching –if not maturity- at least adolescence.While its boosters have long proselytized the medium as a powerful complement to other in-store promotional techniques and messaging, digital signage in the retail environment has remained “well poised,” “an emerging voice,” and other euphemisms for not mainstream.That’s easy to understand, based on the timing of its arrival on the communications

Hello againToday we want to talk about your dream. I want you to think about why you are doing all this. Yes, we have talked about how you can earn really big money in this business :-), but that’s not really what it’s all about. It’s not about the money. The real reason driving this new adventure of yours is lifestyle: when you are earning big bucks, you can fund the lifestyle you have always dreamed about :-) :-).Your dream You need to be very specific about your dream (this is a trick I learned from my guru – my

Someone recently asked me, "How do you learn to feel comfortable tooting your own horn to promote your business?"Well, first let me tell you that I too used to suffer from this business-stifling problem (even though at the time I had a job - it STILL had a great big negative impact on me). You can read the article I wrote about it on my website.You see, I figured (like so many people do) if I did a great job, people would notice. NOT!You have to let people know about your accomplishments. You must let people know why they should hire YOU, over al

If you’re looking for an activity to do with clients other than dinner, take them to a baseball game or some other outside sport. Your clients will appreciate this gesture and your relationship with your clients will become stronger.
If your clients enjoy themselves, they will most likely return the favor and invite you to a sporting event. If they invite you, you know you’ve struck a positive note with them.
It’s important for you to get to know clients on a more personal level because you will find that you have some additional things in common outside of business. In networking, finding commonalities between each other is a crucial piece to building a lasting relationship.
Final Thought
Remember that networking is an activity you should never stop because it’s very important for business and personal success. Don’t let the seasons distract you from building relationships, meeting new people and attending events.
