Do you know the three R's of networking: relationships, reliability and referrals. 1. Relationships: If you approach the first year of your involvement in a networking group with the sole motivation of getting to know the other members well, you will be far ahead of the game.

It’s more than who you know. It’s how well you know them. If you have not yet established a strong relationship, they are not a referral source. Establish connections with those who knows you and trusts you because you’ve taken the time to establish credibility with that person

#PRESENTATIONTIPS: Gain eye contact with as many people in the audience as you can. Let your eyes travel around the room and catch everyone's for 2 -3 seconds. Don't stare though! - @CH_lawson #TuesdayTips #BNIUKIre #business

People do business with people that they KNOW, LIKE and TRUST. Any views on this? @PhilBerg88 @RussSawdon @CH_Lawson @bni01 @BNIOnline
