Episode Highlights

04:28 - I never do things conventionally and my networking wasn't designed to go out there networking to get business. It was to meet people. I call it "supercharged networking." It's to develop relationships first and business will follow. And if you do it that way, it was easier for me, because I originally tried networking. "Hi, Elzie. What do you do? I'm an accountant. Do you have a job for me?" And I learned that's not networking. I don't have a relationship out of that. COVID caused the start of Lunch with Lorry. I would take people out to lunch and I literally write their life story in a post on LinkedIn all about them, and I learned everything about them. I learned what questions to ask and started having relationships with that, When you write about someone else and promote them, they remember you. And that's the form of networking I like.
