MYMS 15: Why networking is essential to growing your movement with Dave Burlin

Have you ever been stabbed with someone's business card?

Your not always going to be passing around that business card or that title, and now we cannot "pass around that business card at all"

But you do have the relationships you invested into.

Dave Burlin is the leader of the #WhyNetworking movement...

and shares why old school quasi networking is ruining relationship potential... It takes a movement to create a better way to connect people before a business card or flaunting a title.

A million stories lead Dave to asking why are we building relationships?

These rules go back to the principles of kindergarten.

The network you build will reveal your net worth... how much value will you poor into relationships.

There are 6 fundamentals to build a valuable network of relationships that will futureproof your life.

1. Show-Up - First step is being present
2. Serve - How can you bring value to someone else.
3. Share - The joy of experiencing something together with someone you know like and trust!
4. Synergy - Turn the energy from multiple people into something we could never do on our own.
5. Smile - Happy people attract happy people
6. Shop Local

Whatever your mission... we cannot do it along...

By getting the right people together can cause a movement to gain momentum!
