January is over, and so are quite a few New Year’s resolutions.
Perhaps you have heard statements from your business contacts, such as “I am going to get serious about referrals this year”, or “I keep hearing that referrals are the best form of new business development”, or our favorite “no one is giving me any referrals.”
If you have had the opportunity to attend networking events or functions in your area on a regular basis you may have noticed that there is a growing propensity to receive referrals that are not real. Or, worse yet, be told that you are going to be introduced to a referral and it never happens.
Unfortunately, this causes a problem for a serious business professional like you. Ask yourself “Do I have time to pursue building relationships with people who feel guilty about not passing quality referrals, so their next best alternative is to lie?” If your answer is “no”, then read on.
The team at BizHive realizes that the networking landscape has changed. The best referrals are developed when the context is most appropriate between you and the referral and not because you attended an event at the right time or because of the venue.
So how do you take advantage of context? It’s simple, get serious about networking with other professionals that are not afraid to hold you accountable for the quality of your referrals.
The team at BizHive extends you the offer to match your commitment, one referral at time.
