The same can be said for selling and networking. You are going to want to network with those who share at least some of these commonalities. These people are from non-competing industries who will most likely refer you to potential business since they are folks who call on your same target buyers and markets. If not … why?

I have always been an effective networker. In the past, I have owned and operated three professional networking groups as a for-profit business. I am a referral junkie. My business was driven by new commercial construction and … there was none. I had developed my first networking group as a side hustle.

You will need to get to know your fellow networkers, and earn their trust, prior to seeing any real returns in terms of referrals. Most people that I know, and even those that I associate with in a networking capacity, are what I would call passive networkers. Remember that this is not a race. Taking it to the next level.
