Nobody likes networking. A room full of strangers? Hell on earth. A room full of strangers trying to sell to you? Even worse. But it’s something you have to be good at it. After all, how can you grow your business if you don’t meet new people?

Nobody likes networking.

A room full of strangers? Hell on earth. A room full of strangers trying to sell to you? Even worse. 

But it’s something you have to be good at it.  After all, how can you grow your business if you don’t meet new people?

And everyone else seems so much better at it, don’t they? They seem to confidently breeze through the front door, stride into the room, approach the right person, and then charm them with their impressive, witty banter. 

Well actually, no. Most people aren’t like this. I bet you aren’t. I’m not. In fact, I imagine you think networking’s pretty hard to do. 

But here’s some good news: to enter a room like a Networking Ninja, there are only two things to know:

  • Who to approach; and
  • What to say to them

In this short video, I use Lego to help you master both.  You’ll see the techniques are easy to understand, comfortable to do and – most importantly – lead to great outcomes for you.

It doesn’t take long to watch - it’s only four minutes long. But it’ll help you see networking isn’t as hard as you first thought…
