Are You Tired of Getting No Results from Your Network?

We all know that networking -- or word-of-mouth -- is one of the best ways to grow a business. But what if you don't know where to start?

We can help.

When our clients come to us they are often experiencing many of the symptoms of networking reluctance. They:

  • Panic about attending networking events.
  • Hate to "sell" themselves.
  • Drop the ball on following up after an event.
  • Feel like networking is a waste of time.

With a little bit of coaching and a few tools, our clients tell us that they've not only been able to achieve the goals they set for their networking practice, but they also feel better about being a networker.

If you want to be more effective with your networking right now, start by requesting your free 52 Connection Tips program at 52ConnectionTips.com

I had the privilege of attending one of Greg’s sessions at one of our Association events. His professionalism shined from the instant I met him. However his talent extends much further, and was exemplified in his keynote speech regarding networking.

Many participants stayed after the meeting netwo… Read more

We presented him with a formidable time disadvantage, as we only had 40 minutes to work together on our first session. Nonetheless, Greg did an excellent job assessing our group’s ne… Read more

I brought Greg Peters, The Reluctant Networker, in to speak to the June 2013 meeting of the Southeastern Michigan chapter of the Association of Clinical Research Professionals (ACRP). As the President of our Chapter, I recognized that our members, while highly skilled in their areas of expertise, definitely were not comfortable making simple conversation and connections with those around them.

As the Executive Director of the Hartland Area Chamber of Commerce, our annual survey has shown that one of the biggest issues facing our members are getting more out of their established networks.
