In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Frank Agin discuss:Why networking isn't pushed in law school. The science of networking and why networking is like golf. The power of small talk (and why it actually works). The three reasons lawyers do not get referrals.  Key Takeaways:Networking is really about building relationships and helping others.You have to help people to help you. If they don't know what you do or what you are looking for, they won't know how to refer you or that you even are looking for more business. People need help from you to recognize the referral opportunities and, perhaps, even the empowering language to know what to say. Build relationships outside of the organizations you're a part of. Meet a few of them on a deeper level, add value to their lives, and it will come around in spades.  "Find something you're passionate about and get out and volunteer. Get out there, put yourself out there with people who care about the same thing you do, and you'll be amazed and what comes from that." —  Frank AginSign up for How to Become a Rainmaker to Achieve Work-Life Balance with Steve Fretzin and Jennifer Gillman at https://fretzin.com/events.  Thank you to our Sponsors!Lawmatics: https://www.lawmatics.com/bethatlawyer/Get Staffed Up: https://getstaffedup.com/bethatlawyer/Green Cardigan Marketing: https://greencardiganmarketing.com/ Episode References: Three New People by Brian MillerFoundational Networking by Frank AginNetworking Rx Podcast About Frank Agin: Frank Agin is president of AmSpirit Business Connections, which empowers entrepreneurs, sales representatives and professionals to become successful through networking.He also shares information and insights on professional relationships, business networking, and best practices for generating referrals under the brand name Networking Rx.

Talk to the people there in the group and get a sense that they're getting to know you, and you should do the same.Find ways to add value to other people, and don't have these preconceived notions about who people are and what they're going to do.Find what you're passionate about to get out into your community and volunteer - you'll meet people who care about the same thing as you do, and they'll learn about you.The key to successful networking is that giving mentality. What you do, and what you get out of this world is tied to what you give, and a lot of great things come from just helping other people. “The most valuable, least expensive thing we have to give in our network is our network itself to start making introductions of people.” – Frank AginCONNECT WITH FRANK:Website: http://frankagin.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/frankagin/LinkedIn: http://linkedin.com/in/frankaginTwitter: http://twitter.com/frankaginEmail: frankagin@amspirit.com CONNECT WITH JENNIE:Website: https://badassdirectsalesmastery.com/Email:  jennie@badassdirectsalesmastery.comFacebook personal page: https://facebook.com/jbellingerPLFacebook podcast page: http://facebook.com/BadassDirectSalesMasteryFacebook group for Badass Crew: https://facebook.com/groups/BadassDirectSalesMomsInstagram: https://instagram.com/BadassDirectSalesMasteryPersonal Instagram: https://instagram.com/jenniebellingerLinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/BadassDirectSalesMasteryShow Notes by Podcastologist: Angelica RaycoAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.
