Please note: This session focuses mainly on delivery – an understanding of the software is assumed

Networking Smart for Results

Presented by Ric Willmot, The Strategist

Every business person networks. Few achieve the results they should. It's not about socialising and handing out business cards.
In this webinar with “The Strategist” -- Ric Willmot, you will learn his pragmatic, commonsense approach to building your business and your brand through intelligent networking.

Ric Willmot is a global consultant who has built his seven-figure business in spite of the fact he is a social introvert. 100% of his business comes from recommendations, referrals, introductions and repeat business.

He will explain why and how introverts can get better results from their networking efforts. He will share his opinions on utilising networking as a genuine business tool to build your business rather than just making friends; and how working with a colleague enables you to divide and conquer with ease and success.

1. Develop a plan and be effective with your time and approach
2. Understand and utilise the linkages between 'giving' and 'getting'
3. Create memorable impressions and develop relationships
4. Make networking a process for building your business investment
