Your Network is Your Net Worth

Listen Later

This podcast is all about learning and growing together as creatives in an ever-growing business world. We know nothing, which is why we seek more knowledge every day. The aim is not to 'teach' but to learn and grow with the community by sharing our experiences.

Cleopas is a very good friend of mine and a super dope creative designer, videographer, youtuber, art director, among many other things. He's a creative powerhouse running a creative powerhouse called VOME. In this episode, we discuss the importance of building a network of ONLY QUALITY PEOPLE because one of the things more important than the ability to do good work is the network you find yourself in. We dive into how we've been able to build networks of our own on the client-side and on the peer side as well, and how that has helped our career.

Don't forget to take notes & share some of your learnings on social media. *wink *wink

A few tweetable points; 

  • You're only one person away from a thousand people.
  • You're also the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with
  • If you're the smartest person in the room, then you're in the wrong room
  • Iron sharpeneth iron
  • Learn to elevator pitch yourself
  • Evaluate your circle
  • Be confident in yourself and your abilities
  • Know the right people even before you think of knowing the skill. You'll learn on the job. 
  • Most people want good enough work. Focus on building trust instead.
