‘It's not what you know, it's who you know.' We've all heard that cliché phrase, but any successful person will preach the importance of a strong network. Building relationships is vital to your personal and professional growth, and there are certain steps you can take to make yourself more likable in order to make those connections.  Michelle Tillis Lederman CPA, MBA, PCC, was named one of Forbes' Top 25 Networking Experts and is the founder and CEO of Executive Essentials, a training company that provides customized communications, leadership coaching, and training programs.  In this episode, Hala and Michelle dive into what makes somebody likable and how that differs from person to person.

How do you feel about networking? Do you see it as extra work you just don't have time for? Or something you have to psych yourself up to do? What if networking didn't have to be ‘work' at all? What if we reframed it as a way of being? A mindset that prioritizes meaningful connection with others? One of Forbes Top 25 Networking Experts, Michelle Tillis Lederman is an accomplished speaker, trainer and coach. As the CEO of Executive Essentials, she works with organizations and individuals to help them build real relationships for better results. Michelle's impressive client roster includes Madison Square Garden, Johnson & Johnson and Michigan State University.

Michelle walks us through the seven mindsets of a Connector, describing the spirit of generosity, openness and attitude of abundance that help Connectors cultivate strong relationships in our personal and professional lives. Listen in for insight on maintaining connections as part of what you're already doing and learn how to ask your network for help without putting relationships at risk.

Get Known, Get Connected, Get Ahead – An Interview with Michelle Tillis Lederman (Inspiring Women, Episode 31) On this edition of "Inspiring Women with Betty Collins," Michelle Tillis Lederman speaks with Betty about why relationships are so vital to success, the seven mindsets of connectors, a mindset of abundance, and much more. "Inspiring Women" is […] The post Get Known, Get Connected, Get Ahead – An Interview with Michelle Tillis Lederman (Inspiring Women, Episode 31) appeared first on Business RadioX ®.

Michelle Tillis Lederman has written four books and with each one she's discovered that a personalized approach to PR and marketing brings the most success.  This makes perfect sense. Michelle is the author of The Connector's Advantage and The 11 Laws of Likability.  She's a connector at heart.   Michelle is one of Forbes Top 25 Networking Experts, and CEO of Executive Essentials, which provides customized communications and leadership programs for Fortune 500, non-profit, university and government clients. A former finance executive and NYU professor, Michelle is a regular in the media appearing on NBC, CBS, Fox, NPR, the Wall Street Journal, NY Times, CNBC, and others. Michelle is known for helping people work better together and advance their individual impact.  The Connector Mindset Brings Results!   Michelle is often asked how she's built her business. She says The Connector's Advantage answers the question. “This is how I build my business, with these philosophies.   “I realized that it's just a way of being if we can embody mindsets, and I talk about the seven mindsets, and the connector's advantage of having them.” (Listen to the episode to uncover the seven mindsets).  She adds: “If we can embody those (mindsets), that's when you achieve the connector's advantage of faster, easier, better results!  When she's asked about the difference between networking and connecting, Michelle says: “Networking is something you do, but a connector is who you are. And that's how my work grew. And that actually became the last line of my book. Because it was like: ‘Oh, this is what I want people to get. Don't do something, be someone'.”  Self-Publishing Gives More Control   Of her four books, Michelle has only used a traditional publisher with the first one, and she says the experience wasn't great, mostly because she didn't have any kind of voice in the process. The publisher sold the audio rights and a man recorded the audio book, while the first cover presented wasn't something Michelle liked.  For the Connector's Advantage, Michelle worked with a hybrid publisher and describes them as “fabulous”. She was fully involved in the process and had a voice every step of the way. She also says that the financial model is better for authors.  “Where traditionally you get the advance up front, you get very little on the back end,” she explains. “Well, The 11 Laws Of Likability has sold every week for over a decade. Tens of 1000s of copies, and I get $1 a book, you know, maybe $1.50. And it costs me $10 to buy a copy. So even when I sell them direct, I'm not making that much.”  In contrast, Michelle can buy The Connector's Advantage at cost which makes it much more affordable to gift copies.   The Connector's Book Launch   With The Connector's Advantage Michelle took more  of a podcast approach to the launch, as opposed to a full book launch.  “I've been on hundreds of podcasts. So I just went back to all the podcasts and said: ‘Hey, launch coming. You want me back on?' And I was recording for months with them, releasing it around the launch date.”  Michelle also ensures her launches have a personal touch. She explains: “If I've had a conversation with you, I try to personalize the inscription in the book that I sign. Now, when you're doing a line of 200 people, you can't do that. But when I had 20 or 30 people, I would try to do that. It became this whole group conversation. And people felt connected and people would stay at my table. I really live the work.”   LINKS  Twitter  Facebook  LinkedIn  Youtube  Instagram  MichelleTillisLederman.com  Michelle's Quiz: What's Your Networking Style?  Book Bonuses  SUBSCRIBE TO THE PUBLISHED AUTHOR PODCAST  If you enjoyed this episode, don't forget to subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, or anywhere else you listen to podcasts.

Don't assume that you will be a successful author without time, talent and or money. Today's featured USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestselling author is publishing industry expert, Amy Collins. Amy and I talk about what it takes to become a successful author and more!!!   Key Takeaways: Over 1.3 million new books came out in 2018. 4 million ISBN numbers have been generated in 2018. No book has become a bestselling book without some kind of help. No one is exempt from the hustle requirement when it comes to marketing and selling your books. Constantly get the word out about your book consistently. Time, money and or talent are a must with writing. Any 2 of these with daily consistent effort can help you become a successful author. Have a good growing relationship with your readers and be willing to grow your readership. People who call themselves lazy are just really afraid. Don't wait for the perfect moment to ask for what you want. Ask or make an offer at least once a day. Seek to become a successful author and not just a bestselling author. “Being afraid is not an unusual thing. We all have fears.” “Do not build your team based on who you like. Build your team based on what you need.” “Don't say yes to things unthinkingly.”   Amy's Site: https://www.newshelves.com/ Amy's Books: https://www.amazon.com/Amy-Collins/e/B001K8G8KW/ref=dp_byline_cont_ebooks_1 The opening track is titled "New Perspective" by the magnanimous chill-hop master, Marcus D (@marcusd).

Always seek to be in a room where you are not the smartest so your knowledge and experience can expand.   Today's featured bestselling author is fellow podcaster, entrepreneur and speaker, Paul Edwards. Paul and I talk about his book, effectively connecting with others on a deeper level and more!   Key Takeaways: Create your own networking group that's not branded as a networking group. Like organizing a game of cards at a cigar lounge. Commit the following three questions to memory when approaching others.     - What's going well for you in business lately?     - What's not going well in business for you now?     - What are you looking forward to? The above questions help you to go beyond fact-finding to feeling finding. A lot of people want pain relief. A consistent sleep routine helps you have optimal health. Be a magnet and not a pusher. Recognize people who are good at what they do. Especially in public. You can make money by connecting people.   Paul's Book: https://www.amazon.com/Business-Beyond-Meaningful-Connection-Entrepreneur/dp/1072236966/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1568345902&sr=1-3   Paul's New Site: https://www.thepaulsedwards.com      Related Episodes:   106.5 - "Work Your Vision & Build a Brand" with Dr. Eric Holmes (@DrEricholmes1): http://goingnorth.libsyn.com/1065-work-your-vision-build-a-brand-with-dr-eric-holmes-drericholmes1   147 - "The Connector's Advantage" with Michelle Tillis Lederman (@mtlederman): http://goingnorth.libsyn.com/147-the-connectors-advantage-with-michelle-tillis-lederman-mtlederman Host 2 Host Special - "Faith, Reinvention & Biblical Character Development" with Bob Thibodeau (@bob_thibodeau): http://goingnorth.libsyn.com/host-2-host-special-faith-reinvention-biblical-character-development-with-bob-thibodeau-bob_thibodeau

Studies show that 92% of people trust referrals and you are four times more likely to buy from someone who was referred. This makes sense to Michelle Tillis Lederman, author of The Connector's Advantage: 7 Mindsets to Grow Your Influence and Impact. In her early career, she realized that relationships are critical to your success, health, and happiness. However, this isn't all about the warm fuzzies. Connectors have a certain way of thinking and acting that enables stronger connections. Building that skill can get us to faster, easier, and better. Michelle shares with Kevin that when leaders focus on building connections, relationships and loyalty with their teams, they impact the bottom line.

Michelle Lederman has just released her new book The Connector's Advantage: 7 Mindsets to Grow Your Influence and Impact. Named by Forbes as one of the 25 networking experts to watch. She's a former NYU professor who has since made her mark as an accomplished speaker, trainer, coach and, of course, esteemed author. Her passion is really to help individuals and organizations build better relationships and achieve greater results through her company, Executive Essentials. Michelle has worked with an array of big-name organizations of all kinds, has been featured in The New York Times, and she's here today to advise us on implementing the most important networking skills that she has learned over the years. Michelle shares with us what it means to be a connector, the different type of connectors, how we are to approach our networks and the mindsets that are required to become better at relationships on all levels. This thought-provoking conversation is guaranteed to pique your interest, so don't miss out on this one!

I have a special treat for you this week. This will be the first time I've had someone back on the show and it's for a very good reason. My guest is a people expert who inspires organizations and individuals to build real relationships and get real results. Named one of Forbes Top 25 Networking Experts, she is the author of several books including “The Connectors Advantage: 7 Mindsets to Grow Your Influence and Impact,” which was just released a couple of months ago. For this book, she interviewed over two dozen networking experts, including Marshall Goldsmith, Dorie Clark, Ivan Misner, Susan RoAnn, and yours truly. I feel quite fortunate to be mentioned with this esteemed group – many of whom I've interviewed.
