Content-Based Networking

Book excerpt: There's a reason everyone says "it's not what you know, it's who you know." If you're striving to reach ambitious goals, it's impossible without the right relationships. So how do you reverse-engineer relationships with the exact people you want to know? Through his podcast B2B Growth and his company Sweet Fish Media, James Carbary has pioneered a concept called content-based networking--a new approach to building your professional network. Instead of relying on chance encounters and random in-person events, content-based networking allows you to connect with anyone, at any time, and from anywhere in the world. In Content-Based Networking, you'll learn a proven three-part framework to consistently connect with potential customers, investors, referral partners, industry influencers, and anyone in between. Using this framework, you'll develop thought leadership in your industry, while simultaneously creating meaningful relationships with the exact people that can help you reach your goals and dreams.
