Highly successful Sales Professionals and Business Leaders in today’s world are connecting with each other at a frantic pace. Web 2.0 and the technological advances that have followed have made connecting in the 21st century a global affair. To coin a phrase, “the world is flat”. We are conecting with everyone - every where. There is value in building a wide network and progressive professionals are taking every opportunity to create connections. In sales, connections will get you in the door and in front of the right people faster than traditional cold calling. When your connections introduce you to people inside of their network your message has immeadiate relevance. "In other words, your network is more powerful than any other means of prospecting."
Your network is also critical to managing and building your career. This is especially true in sales. As a Sales Professional it is likely that you will change jobs every three to four years. With a strong connected network you will easily make the transition from company to company, earn more salary and end the stress of “looking” for work. When you are connected, work will come to you.
