The truth about networking

Working online may seem different from the outside world, but actually there’s alot of similarities between the two. I remember one night when I was working in a hospital with a colleague of mine. We were both working a late night shift dispensing at the pharmacy. In practice we wouldn’t usually have good relations with the patients as they would expect to ’special treatment’ everytime they see you. But my friend was an exceptional man. He had a flare for networking and seemed to have no problem being nice to everyone he sees. Because of that, he managed to secure a spot and get a discount at the pre-launch of Honda’s new City Car Model.

In comparison with the online world, its somewhat similar. You have to have good relationships with your customers if you want them to come back for more. Don’t just sell them whatever you’re selling without establishing that human link with them. Even if they don’t buy your product, they can still be a potential business partner (affiliate marketing, anyone?)
