Yes, I love getting out running business events, meeting new people and being around other humans, but I also need a lot of downtime afterwards.As an introvert, I need a lot of space on my own so that I can recharge.When you run your own business, networking and building relationships is one of the key activities that you need to give attention to. But if you're an introvert, that's often not something you feel particularly enthusiastic about doing. So how do you reach out to other business people as an introvert?I have a few key strategies that have helped me build valuable relationships as an introvert, and my hope is that they help you too.LINKS:WebsiteFor a copy of Emma's book, 'Go-getter: Raise your mojo, shift your mindset and thrive' – https://www.emmamcqueen.com.au/book/

LinkedIn is a powerful tool for your business–but only if you use it properly. Today's guest will show you how to make the most of this platform with authentic, non-spammy connection strategies. Colin Hirdman started his first business a week after graduating from college with no background in business or marketing. He's the co-founder of Monkey Island Ventures, along with two of his childhood best friends. Over the last 18 years, they've built over a dozen software and service businesses. Their newest venture, Rainmaker, helps people in sales roles build their network, leads, and sales through LinkedIn. The LinkedIn Philosophy There are three components for success on LinkedIn. The first piece is philosophy. You need to be authentic and genuine. Speak to people with a conversational tone. The second aspect is approaching it with an educational mindset, because no one wants to be sold on LinkedIn. Jumping right into sales tactics doesn't work. Focus on building relationships, not pitching meetings. Lastly, try to understand the pain points your prospects are experiencing. What do they want to be educated on, and what can you teach? Grow Your Audience The easiest way to build an audience on LinkedIn is to identify your ideal client profile and use Sales Navigator to find people who meet that criteria. Another option is to attend LinkedIn events in your industry. Start building a prospect list of people who are participating in those events. You can also use influencers as a proxy: if there's someone in your niche with a large following, reach out to them for a connection. If their connections are open, you'll be able to see them in Sales Navigator. The final step is to create proactive connection campaigns. In Colin's business, they connect with 25 people a day, Monday through Friday, which works out to 500 connections per month. Out of those, around 20-25% will connect back. If a prospect doesn't connect within 30 days, they withdraw the invite and then re-invite those people at a later date. Enjoy this episode with Colin Hirdman… Soundbytes 9:30-10:01 “We came up with the five F's, which are freedom, finances, friendship, family, and fun. And those are the five F's that the three of us live by. I would highly recommend, if you have someone as a business partner that you can just innately trust and rely on to go through the ups and downs of what it's like being in business…I highly encourage you to do that, because when you're doing it all yourself, it can be lonely at the top.” 13:27-13:46 “LinkedIn is incredibly powerful because it's the only business social network out there. It's growing like crazy. Everyone's trying to crack the nut of how you leverage LinkedIn, but you have to approach it still in wanting to build relationships, and having that educational mindset is absolutely paramount.” Quotes “Nobody wants to be sold on LinkedIn.” “Everyone is trying to crack the nut of how you leverage LinkedIn, but you have to approach it still in wanting to build relationships.” “If you approach LinkedIn the right way, that's where you can have a lot of success.” “The messages that you are sending should not be salesy in any way. It should be providing value. It should establish you as a thought leader.” Links mentioned in this episode: From Our Guest Website: https://www.rainmakergrows.com/ Connect with Colin Hirdman on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/colinhirdman/ Connect with brandiD Download our free guide to learn 16 crucial website updates that attract more leads and convert visitors into clients: https://thebrandid.com/website-tweaks/ Ready to elevate your digital presence with a powerful brand or website?

After a year on the road visiting top golf courses around the country, Brian Laurent has learned a thing or two about what makes a great leader on the green–and his findings might surprise you. Brian is the founder and CEO of Propel Solutions and wears many hats including executive director, marketing director, communication specialist, event coordinator, and more. He enjoys developing and implementing creative strategies utilizing new technology. Brian earned a degree in Communication from The Ohio State University where he was a walk-on member of the men's golf team. He lives just outside Columbus, Ohio, and still enjoys playing golf and spending time with his wife, two sons, and two step-children. Top 2 Qualities of a Great Leader After visiting courses around the country and attending multiple tournaments, Brian noticed a few stand-out qualities that all the best leaders have in common. The first is composure. Even in high-stress environments, the best leaders stay calm–especially in front of their team. They create a positive culture at the course from the top down. When challenges come up, they take them in stride. The second quality is that great leaders don't engage in comparison. They don't complain or compare their situation to others because they know every course is different. If you want to be a better leader, stay focused on your team and your course–remember the grass is always greener. The Power of Networking Brian's top advice for anyone looking to enter the golf industry (or grow your career) is to build your network. Stay in touch with people you went to school with, volunteer, intern, and travel whenever you get the opportunity. The more people you meet, the more you'll learn and the better off you'll be. Enjoy this episode with Brian Laurent… Quotes “Networking is vital to one's success in this industry.” “Having that composure when you're interacting with your team and being able to calmly talk to them about what's going on and what needs to be done, all that kind of stuff…it pays dividends because you're not imposing unneeded stress on your team.” “People tend to lose sight of that, that it's a game and it's meant to be fun.” “I think the most important thing in this industry is networking.” “I've never had a bad day on a golf course when I'm with good people.” Links mentioned in this episode: Superintendent Network: https://www.superintendentnetwork.com/ Follow the Superintendent Network on X: https://twitter.com/TheGCSNetwork?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor Follow the Superintendent Network on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thegcsnetwork Connect with Brian on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brian-laurent-aba3744/

It takes time and when done correctly can yield great results for years to come.”—Diane Helbig According to the Oxford dictionary, networking is defined as “interacting with others to exchange information and develop professional or social contacts...it's so important to network when starting a new business.” What I love is that even the dictionary states how important it is for startups to network. There are over 7 billion people on the planet, each one holding a key. Many of them have a key you need. It is important to find them and obtain the key. It is the only key that unlocks the door that you were called to walk through. Far too often, we take for granted how important people are, especially as we become even more dependent on technology. But as you will see when I address the power of human capital, we are nothing without people. When building your network, you want to think about your target market and then build a circle around them. Start by identifying who they are. Once you've accomplished that, I need you to identify where they might be, who might work with them, who might serve them. Here is an example: a large target for me is the underserved. I am here for them. So, I need to build my network with social services that care for the underserved. Then, I'm able to work with my target market and be paid for the work I do. My network needs to be built with nonprofits, county department of health and welfare, and the like. That means I need to be at networking events where underserved people will be attending. You understand? I'm making connections outside of my direct target. The same is true for you. Your homework: I want you to make a list of the important contacts in your network. These will be individuals who may provide information to you, advice, inspiration, encouragement, and the like. When you write them down, you can note what it is that you get from each person. What value does the exchange you have with them bring to your life? Then, I want you to note next to their name who introduced you to them. How was it that you met? If you introduced yourself to them, then just put “me.” In networking, there are brokers, and if you are familiar with what brokers do, they connect. In real estate, they connect buyers to sellers. My dear friend Henry Einstein, who wrote the foreword for my book Startup to Success, is a real estate broker and a powerful connector. This young man is a business genius, and he is able to not only connect buyers to sellers, but his ability to network is out of this world. Today, he has a strong network of individuals who have influence, affiliations, wealth, and power. For the purpose of this activity, the person who connected you with your contact is the broker. You are going to need to find out who your brokers are. If you see “me” appear too many times, you know that you have an inbred network. Diversity is extremely important to your network. Please make sure to build a diverse network so that you don't get caught up in group thinking. No more inbred networks! In an article titled “How to Build Your Network,” which was featured in the Harvard Business Review, Brian Uzzi and Shannon Dunlap write: “According to our studies, if you've introduced yourself to your key contacts more than 65% of the time, then you're probably building your network using the self-similarity principle and your network may be too inbred. The self-similarity principle states that, when you make network contacts, you tend to choose people who resemble you in terms of experience, training, worldview, and so on. We have found that executives, in particular, disproportionately use the self-similarity principle to build their networks. Obviously, it is easier to trust someone who views the world through the same lens you do; you expect that person to act as you would in ambiguous situations. What's more, working with people who share your background is often very efficient: You both recognize concepts that allow you to transfer information quickly, and you are less likely to challenge one another's ideas. Finally, like-minded people will usually affirm your point of view and, as a result, gratify your ego. Too much similarity restricts your access to discrepant information, which is crucial to both creativity and problem solving. If all your contacts think the way you do, who will question your reasoning or push you to expand your horizon? And because, over time, people tend to introduce their contacts to one another so that everyone becomes friends, the similarity of thought and skill reverberates, creating what we call an echo chamber.” If you don't have a network, you can build one! Start with LinkedIn. It is built for the business world, and you can start building right there. I am currently experiencing the power of LinkedIn's networking power. As I prepare for my transition to San Diego, I must build a new network there. LinkedIn has been instrumental in connecting me to super connectors and the opportunities are overflowing before me. If you don't have a LinkedIn profile, then that is also your homework. Make sure to connect with me. Outside of online social networking building opportunities you can show up to mixers and business events. Go to conference. Get out and experience what the beautiful business world has to offer you. Talk to people. Listen to people genuinely. Some final notes on networking, I want you to understand you are building trust. Therefore, you must be a trustworthy person and do right by people. Bad business, no matter how long the run, will always end in destruction. Do yourself a favor and do right by people. Make sure you are a person of your word. If you say you will do something, then do it. If you make a contact at an event and you tell them you will be contacting them, you should honor your word. You never know when you are being linked to a broker who could link you to your next big break. I need you to make networking a priority and understand it requires you to invest your time. You cannot build your business alone. Even if you are going to be a sole proprietor, you are still an empowered entrepreneur, which means you understand that you need people on your team and you need to make finding and connecting with them a priority. I want your efforts in networking to be sincere. I want you to be a person who is confident in who they are and the purpose they have to offer this world. I want you to be heart centered and understand that you have power in the position of humility. This will be instrumental in your success. And remember success is not a secret, it is a system.

How does growing up in a bubble prepare you for life outside of it? Having spent his entire childhood in a church campus, it took Travis Chappell long years to realize that the path he was in at that time was not the life that he wanted to lead. Travis, the man behind the Build Your Network podcast, looks back at how a ministry degree holder like him went from making door-to-door sales to starting a podcast and to building his own business. Despite having to start from scratch, he persevered and used his experience making door-to-door until he finally launched his first-ever podcast in 2017. He later built his business, Guestio, where he teaches entrepreneurs how to build, grow, and monetize podcasts through interviewing. In this episode, Travis gets real about growing up in a Christian bubble and discovering his passion for podcasting. He and Darius also talk about the key strategies to build an audience, how to achieve success in the industry, and how to leverage podcasts to establish brand authority. Topics include: Travis looks back on growing up in a Fundamentalist Christian bubble How Travis started his podcast show and podcast coaching Why Travis decided to do door-to-door sales after college instead of going into ministry Podcasters that inspired Travis to get into the industry The secret formula for podcast success Leveraging podcasts to enhance brand How to get started in podcasting What Travis envisions Guestio to achieve Expanding the Build Your Network podcast for a wider reach And other topics… Connect with Travis: Website: https://travischappell.com/ Website: https://guestio.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/travischappell/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/travischappell/?hl=en Connect with Darius: Website: https://therealdarius.com/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dariusmirshahzadeh/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imthedarius/ YouTube: https://therealdarius.com/youtube Book: The Core Value Equation https://www.amazon.com/Core-Value-Equation-Framework-Limitless/dp/1544506708 Learn more about your ad choices.
