Networking Tips for the Introvert

Do you get sweaty palms when walking into a roomful of people you may not know?  Maybe it’s MORE than sweaty palms; perhaps closer to nausea followed by abject terror.   “Good grief!”, you may think! “How am I ever going to build a new business or following when I don’t like glad handing in crowds?”

Relax!  Some famous introverts have built amazing power relationships and success: think Bill Gates, Meryl Streep, JK Rowling, Steven Spielberg, Elon Musk and Eleanor Roosevelt for starters.

I want to share this interesting article from Forbes because it gives some great information, but more than that, it recommends small groups and continuous deep relationships…. which is, by the way, exactly how I built my business that has supported me for 2.5 decades so it works for more than just introverts.

I became involved in having breakfast every week with some high quality local professionals who were committed to helping me succeed and I made the same commitment to them.  They are now responsible for about 70% of my business.

If you are local, I have an invitation for you below to join me for one of those breakfasts and see how it works – and you don’t have to be an extrovert!!

 

In 2017, over 227,000 members of BNI worldwide passed over 9.8 million referrals which resulted in more than $13.6 billion in business – and you can be one of them! 

Join me for my BNI chapter’s Visitor Day on May 17th, 2018. You’ll meet like-minded entrepreneurs and have breakfast. Cost is $20 including breakfast. Rock ‘n Brews, Pacific Coast Hwy and Palos Verdes Blvd., Redondo Beach, 7:00 AM (it’s early, but definitely worth it!). 

You MUST pre-register HERE to be my guest.

    2018 POWER VISIONING MASTERMIND

  and have the life and business you love!

 

Consciously direct your visions so that they can manifest

positive, uplifting outcomes!

 

• Learn how to create magnetic, inspired visions to attract the right outcomes - even if different than expected - (and usually better!)

• Discover the difference between a vision connected to your deeper self (and has a higher energy) and one that is created out of fear and expediency which has a much lower vibe and manifests much more slowly and is less rewarding.

• Learn and practice tools to continually reinforce your visions and keep you in the right direction.

• Understand the process of bringing your desires to life - and even how you can tell when you're getting close.  (Most of us miss this window because we don't understand what's happening.)

• Get the support, feedback, coaching and resources you need to accelerate your progress.

"As Mary Lyn helped me craft a  new vision for my life, things began to change right away  and my team members helped me get my first client as a handywoman.   This is not an idea I would have ever had on my own and it has turned out to be my life's work that I not only love but has provided me a wonderful living.  I have always been so grateful."

                                        Cass Reed, The Fix-It Lass

"When I left my full time job as an attorney, I had no idea how to take the next step.  I took Mary Lyn's Vision Workshop and joined the mastermind network.  I had a new vision and today I have a thriving practice, a new husband, and a great life - and I'm still in the Premiere Mastermind Group!  I'm not giving up something that works!"

Foolish Career or Business Mistakes - and How to Avoid Them

In honor of the upcoming April Fool’s Day, I am asking clients, friends and associates like you to share a foolish career or business mistake that taught you something important, and how things are different now and how you would advise others.  It’s important that you feel good about it now or can laugh at it.  This is meant to share and teach; not be critical of yourself. 

I will share some of them on my April Fool’s Complimentary First Monday teleconference at 6:30 PDT, and hopefully, some of you will be on to share your story personally.  I will introduce you and ask what you do and how to reach you!  Good promo!  (But only if you’re OK with that.) 

One of the more foolish (and expensive) errors in judgment I made early on was spending a lot of money to conduct a workshop to which nobody came.  I had elaborate promotional brochures and materials, a deposit on a meeting room in a great hotel at the airport, and food and drinks ordered. I’m telling you it was really extraordinarily well organized!!!!  But no one registered.  I was devastated.

However, I learned to the value of pre-testing my market! I just had the wrong slant on my subject and my audience didn’t relate to it – something I could have easily fixed with a few targeted conversations, a focus group or one round of www.surveymonkey.com.  

I see a lot of this with product launches – time and money spent on a information product our clients don’t really want.  It is not what they NEED that makes them buy – it is what they WANT.   Take the time to know and monitor your client's  real concerns and what excites them. When you are clear about that sweet spot, it’s money in the bank!  That's what I learned. 

Now, it’s your turn.  Let me hear from YOU.  I can’t be the only one……….

Can you succeed in uncertain times? Absolutely. In fact, some of the greatest amounts of money have been made in difficult economic times. Uncertainty also presents new possibilties.

Unfortunately, during any time of change, we become vulnerable to our basest fears. Fear produces more fear which produces anxiety, closed doors, and inability to think creatively which is aboslutely crucial. But, with new information and possibilities, a fresh approach, a little discipline, and support, we can produce outcomes that really support our needs.

Listen to the audio for a very new view and a lot of kick it money receiving attitude:
