Connect

How well do you connect to others? In life and in business the key to successful relationships is connecting with others. There are many ways to connect with people and it is how you utilize those connections which will determine your success.

When connecting with others are you the type that is looking for something out of the relationship or are you listening and seeing what you can do to help that individual? The most important connection we make is the personal connection. This is the connection that carries the most weight and it allows the person we are connecting with to know us, to understand us and to feel comfortable with us. When you connect on this level people trust you. You become “their guy”. The greatest compliment you can ever receive is when someone says “I’ve got a guy” and they mean you! When you are “the guy” people refer you and with that referral they are transferring their trust in you. These are the greatest referrals and show that you have connected.

Have you become the bridge that allows others to connect through you? When you are “the guy” people will call you for referrals and ask if you know “a guy” . When you achieve this status your business is ready to explode. Connecting in these ways creates the trust you need to succeed. Make sure you are making all these connections and watch your business soar!!
