Event description
Just like dating, relationship-based networking takes time, money and effort.
And, just like dating, it can bring up feelings of inadequacy, stress, and confusion.
What do I say? How do I approach the person? How do I know they're even interested? How do I prepare? What if they don't want to partner with me?
Even if these thoughts rarely cross your mind, when we're talking about creating strategic business alliances, you want to know that you are investing wisely.
. . . Not to mention having FUN at the same time!
I hope you'll join us for the second of our two-part workshop series, Networking That Works, Part II: Creating & Nurturing Strategic Power Partners for Fun and Profit.
Together, we will learn and practice how to add targeted fuel to our networking by creating alliances with Power Partners.
In our time together, you will learn:
Exactly what a Power Partner is and how it differs from other types of referral partners
Why it's your job to make your referral partner look good
How to clarify your target market, your ideal client, and the unique value you bring to the table
Why sometimes "less is more" when it comes to nurturing powerful relationships
How to use the Resonance of 5 to target the right Power Partners for you
Why Power Partnerships must be symbiotic in order to last long-term
Why giving 50/50 is a sure way to shoot yourself in the foot
A specific tool to effortlessly introduce yourself to potential referral partners
How to create joint ventures that are a win-win-win for you, your Power Partner, and your clients
This workshop is hands-on, participatory, and fun, so I hope to see you there.
And, who knows?
You just may find your next strategic Power Partner at this event ☺

Hi Brad and Meredith!
This is wonderful that you will make it. The best part will be connecting with so many amazing entrepreneurs (and the new restaurant has a great atmosphere, as well).
Have a great weekend, and I'll see you all on Monday :)
