Ep 260: Building Strong Connections with Lorry Rifkin
As we aim to live our best lives, it is important to remember the importance of building strong connections with others. Whether it’s personal or professional relationships, the power of a strong connection can offer us the opportunity to share experiences that can help us learn and grow. Lorry Rifkin started "Lunch with Lorry" which was networking to a pure basis without any business part to it.
Lorry states that during their workshops, people were willing to share deeply personal insights and experiences that they usually don't reveal to others. Thus, strong connections allow us to enrich our lives by introducing new perspectives and ideas while providing emotional support when needed. Tune in to discover how building strong connections can be a powerful catalyst for your overall growth!
Episode Highlights
03:34 - Again, I wasn't smart enough to pre-plan all this, but I will tell you how it worked. First, it was general networking and build a big, wide, great network. Ultimately, one aim is to get business. So, the seasons isn't as much as I talked about the audience. So, I focus a lot more on private networking events where the general public can't come. It could be a private equity event. It could be a bank Christmas party, stuff that the whole public can't come to. And that sometimes has, for me, more of my target audience in the business world. So, you have phases. You might want to start out with general network. Meet as many people as you can. That will lead to invitations over time to go into private network events, which are more targeted and could wind up better for you. It doesn't mean that the business is right there. You have to work that, too, but it's a different audience.
