An Experiment in Business Networking

Over the last few months I’ve been networking like crazy in an attempt to meet new people and to find new partners for No. 2 Pen. Because our clients are from all over, most of our business is done via phone and email. It’s been refreshing to meet face-to-face with so many professionals.

I’ve decided to take what I’m learning through all this networking and make a Squidoo lens. While nothing revolutionary, it’s a nice way to document the experience. I hope you’ll check it out: An Experiment in Business – How to Build a Network.

While you’re on the lens, answer the polls and leave your feedback. As with all social media, a Squidoo lens is only as good as the dialogue. What do you think?

I’d also like to take a minute and acknowledge a few of the fantastic professionals I’ve met through all this networking. Their talent and ambition is admirable. My hope is that you’ll find their services useful for your own business.

How do you choose to network and grow your business?
