Evan Carmichael skipped sleep at a packed Orlando conference to grab Sunday-morning coffee with two newsletter subscribers, Mike and Dave. He says busy is no excuse: set aside time each week to reach out and add value to people, because your network is how you grow.
Today's One Minute Monday is connect with people. You cannot do this business on your own, okay? To build something great, you need to connect with people and get people to help you grow. Every time I go away to another city, I try to connect with the people on my newsletter, people who are fans, see if I can help them out in any way. I just got back from Orlando speaking at a conference, and I had a crazy packed schedule. I had a morning 2-hour session I was leading, then a lunch that was a networking lunch I was hosting, then an afternoon 2-hour session I was leading, then a dinner and an event award where I had to present the award for best social media, and then I wanted to go salsa dancing, of course, after, right? So it was a crazy late night, and I thought, wow, I have no time. How am I going to connect with people on my newsletter list like I always like to do? I don't think I'm going to be able to do it because I had to leave the next day. And I thought, you know what, I got to find a way. I got to find a way to do it because I love connecting with people. The only time I had was the morning the day of my flight. It was Sunday morning, 9 AM. I said, you know what, if people want to come meet me for Sunday 9 AM coffee, I'll meet with them. And I put out a notice to my newsletter list and I met Mike and Dave, two amazing entrepreneurs from Orlando. We had a great conversation. I was able to connect with them, help them grow their business. They both left super happy and overwhelmed and Mike even gave me a ride to the airport after. Thank you, Mike. So connect with people. Even if you have a crazy schedule like we all have, you need You need to find time in your week, every single week, to connect with people, reach out to them, try to make their lives better, see how they can help you with your business, because you cannot do this all on your own. You need the support of the people in your network. Believe. For those of you watching, like the video, thumbs up below, support me by the link below, leave a comment, subscribe to the channel.
