On this episode of Ask Valor Masterminds Podcast, we talk with Ivan Misner, Founder & Chief Visionary Officer of BNI who educates our audience on what Networking is and how it can help grow your business connections in your community. Networking is the process of developing & activating your relationships to increase your business, enhance your knowledge, expand your sphere of influence, & serve your community. Ivan shares 5 Ways to Better Networking: 5) Follow Up (...the fortune lies in the follow up) 4) Sincere & Authentic (Go-Giver Law of Authenticity: the most valuable gift you have is to offer yourself. People hate ‘people who fake it’.) 3) Collaboration (people want to network with people w/collaborative attitude) 2) Positive Attitude (your 1st impression...positive attitude like magnets) #1 Be A Good Listener (success depends on how well we listen & learn) For more information about Dr. Ivan Misner visit his website www.ivanmisner.com
