Embrace Rapid Change Find ways to help others and to keep in touch. Yes, it takes discipline and time, but it’s well worth the effort. When you need to find a job or sales lead, you can approach your contacts with ease.We are living in a very unique time period. Innovation happens faster than we can process it, especially on the internet. If you literally take a week off, you have missed a ton. There's a good chance you missed Google's latest release, Apple's newest iPod, or AOL's legal battle. Take a few months off and you've probably missed the introduction of a technology that will be pivotal in the future (think about how hot AJAX is right now and most of us hadn't heard of it a year ago).While it can be exciting to just sit back and soak in all of the amazing things happening, it can also be extremely stressful as an internet entreprene It will feel natural and won’t be a burden to others because they will trust and know you. These are the kind of relationships you should strive for t Stellar Customer Service in 10 Simple Steps Many people only network when they’re looking for a job. However, finding a job is the result of good networking rather than the immediate outcome.If you're like me, you've had plenty of experience with BAD customer service. Just think about the last time you had a bad experience with a product or a service.Perhaps the product or service did not live up to the sales pitch. Maybe the company was unresponsive to your calls or emails. Maybe they did not do what they said they were going to do. Or they gave you the run-around when you called to report a problem or ask a question.If you think about it, all of these negative experiences boil down to one thing, a lack of customer service. And a lack of customer service usually stems from a lack of customer focus. It Instead, business professionals should concentrate more on building relationships with people no matter what their immediate needs may be. By taking this approach, you will then be able to contact people in your network for needs such as jobs, sales leads and partnership opportunities. Without building trust and a relationship with people, you will have a much harder time with requests. In fact, you should try to help others before you ask for their help. By helping others first, you are showing the kind of person you are and good faith. When you need help later, your requests should be received very favorably. Business professionals should therefore integrate networking into their routine and make it a continuous aspect of their business life. Network Now, Not Later Most people only network when they have a need and often get frustrated when that need can’t be immediately met. As a result, they have a bad experience with networking. People with this experience often have an unfavorable impression of networking and tend to stop attending networking events.

I offer this piece of advice to those just starting out, or thinking about starting out, choose your drop shippers wisely. It is my contention that many of these wholesale distributors have too many internal problems and that you will be disappointed in the total lack of “customer service”. Yes they will take your money; they will promise you the world, but when you need the products they charged you for, guess what?So are most drop shippers really evil?

As a result, they have a bad experience with networking. People with this experience often have an unfavorable impression of networking and tend to stop attending networking events.A major company proclaims "Employees are our most important asset!" Yet, the same company's culture communicates something much different. It's top-down, command-and-control all the way and employees, like good children, are expected to be seen, not heard.In cases like these we come face to face with the odd couple of communication: explicit and implicit communication.Explicit communication refers to the things we say or write, often messages intended to influence the behavior of others. "Do this" and "Don't do that" count as examples of explicit communication. They leave as little room as possible for interpretation or Rather than waiting until you need to network, start networking before a need arises.

Regularly Attend Networking Events In order to meet people and build your network, you need to regularly attend networking events. It’s a good idea to attend several events every month so it becomes part of your routine. “The approximate range of monthly Chicagoland technology-related and business-focused networking events that are posted on the TechVenue.com calendar is five to 10 per month,” said David Flint, founder and president of TechVenue.com. As you know, another great source for technology and business events is ePrairie. Both of these calendars should give you several options to choose from each month. By getting yourself out there, it will become easier and more natural for you to talk with people. You will start to run into some of the same people, which will help you to build relationships and become known in networking circles. The more people you know, the better your resources will be for helping others. With each new person you meet, you should pay attention to his or her needs so you have a chance to connect someone in your network with this person. Connecting people is a great way to keep in touch with others and continually build your relationships. Networking is a continuous process rather than just something that happens every once in a while
