Networking What Is It?
Each of them know other businesspeople and they
have customers. Business owners will refer
business if they know that you do a good job. It
makes sense because they are adding value to
their customer's lives at no additional cost.

Creating Your Network
There are 5 easy steps to creating a successful
business network.
Step 1 Do a Google search for business networks
in your area. Step 2 Visit 3 or 4 of these
events. Make a couple of strong contacts at each
event by asking then about themselves and their
business and then arrange to meet with them for
coffee over the next few days. Step 3 Resist
the temptation to "push" your product or service
onto them. They will ask you in good time. Step
4 When you meet with your new contacts, ask more
questions about them and their business. Don't
forget to throw in a few questions about their
preferred network event. You can get lots of
information here that will help you decide which
one to join. Once again, curb the excitement you
have for your business. Your goal is to learn all
you can about your new friend. Step 5 Make a
decision to join at least one business network as
soon as you feel comfortable.

Networking is all about building rapport, trust
and welcoming new friends and important
colleagues into your life.
If you are friendly and you show genuine interest
in your new friends, you will have no trouble
creating your own little business network.

You get a feel for the local business environment 
Especially in the context of your own small
business, it is vitally important to understand
how the local market behaves, what are its key
demand areas and its most effective price points
keeping in mind the demographic and
psycho-graphic profile of the area.

Keep updated with the current happenings in the
local business environment
No business can grow in isolation. Networking
with other business owners and associations helps
you keep updated on the latest local business
news, new regulations, incentives or tax reliefs
offered by the local government to small
businesses and the changing customer demands.
14
Gain qualified leads and referrals
The best way to increase your business is by
getting solid referrals or sales leads that come
from known contacts. Once you build a network of
good, reliable contacts, you will find your
contacts passing on business leads to you, which
you will be able to close more quickly than those
coming from advertising. People like to refer
those whom they know, like and trust.
15
Get useful business tips and advice
A good network of contacts is like an investment
in executive coaching. You will find that the
best business advice and tips come to you from
your contacts. People with whom you have built
positive relationships would gladly pass on
effective and honest advice to you.
16
Unlock new business opportunities 
Building a growing network of business
associates, business contacts and peers is like
opening yourself to a larger world of new ideas.
You may be running a small business but that does
not mean you should limit your ideas, vision and
plans for your business within narrow confines.
