If you are a new entrepreneur or you been in business for a while, you have heard about the importance of networking. There are people that find networking to be intimidating and difficult to master others find to be an open door to connecting to new people and prospects. The bottom line is if you do not network, at some level, your business will not grow or prosper to its potential. I sat down with Anthony Abron – The Magnetic Networker™ to discuss his upcoming telesummit and the world of networking.
Anthony’s Journey
I left transportation and Logistics which I had done for the previous seven years. I was not happy. I knew it was more and what I was doing was not it. I knew the creator wanted him to use his voice, so I became a Voice-over artist.
I attended a networking event and before a hundred people I was asked what do you have? Tell us about your business? I spoke. They listened. And at the end they were in awe. They surround me wanting my business card and my website. I did not have either because I just jumped out on faith. It was the beginning of where it started.
I began to study and research people and took what I learned personally. With no money, my business grew through word of mouth. I began to see the power of networking. I realized that networking is a skill set that no one is teaching. In having a business it is important that you network. I help people understand it is a matter of getting comfortable when you know the steps and you can stay within your lane. I can help people because it is my own journey.
I look at my mother who knew a lot of people but she did not understand networking. If she understood it I often ask myself where would that have put us? My father understood it and I’m taking that information and teaching it to others. I want to teach this skill set nationally and internationally. When you understand the history of our nation, the good of boys club that is all networking. It is also the great equalizer. Sales and networking are the great equalizers in business. For our people it is economic empowerment. Most people want to be Michael Jordan but don’t want to dribble. Networking is the fundamentals, the basics. For instance, Oprah is a master networker, every time you see her show she is showcasing who she knows. A lot of people have networks but you have to understand their is knowing people and then there is your network.
