In this episode:
Networking is a valuable business tool, but if you approach it like a sales pitch, you’re not likely to form lasting connections, especially if your prospects regard you as desperate. How can you develop a servant-based networking style to deliver value to others?
Servant leader Steve Ramona began networking with middle-aged professionals while working at his family’s health club when he was 18. His three-step process for building meaningful relationships involves facilitating natural conversations, listening to prospects’ problems, and identifying opportunities to help them. However, servant-based networking shouldn’t be one-sided. Instead, you should develop a reciprocal referral system by allowing your connections to make recommendations.
In today’s edition of Systems Simplified, Adi Klevit welcomes Steve Ramona, the host of the Doing Business with A Servant’s Heart podcast, who shares the value of networking with a servant-based mindset. Steve describes the law of increase, common networking mistakes to avoid, and his ideal referral partners.
