BNI: What is the Sure-Fire Way to Expand Your Network and Catapult Your Business to Success?
Become a local expert! It may take a lot of work at first, but publishing articles about your business will brand you as a local expert and do wonders for your networking efforts.
Upland, CA (PRWEB) May 1, 2007 -- A recent article, written by BNI's Founder & Chairman Dr. Ivan Misner and published on Entrepreneur.com, reveals how you can get the golden ticket into the respected circle of local experts.
Dr. Misner explains that networking is all about relationships and relationships are all about establishing credibility. In order to create genuine credibility with a wide circle of community members, you need to find a way to be visible to them. One way for you and your business to gain increased visibility and enhanced credibility within the community is to brand yourself as a local expert by getting published.
When you have been published, others respect you as an authority in your field and thus, your credibility is enhanced throughout the networking process with both existing and potential clients. As a recognized author, you are visible to a much larger realm of people; and that, in itself, creates tremendous networking opportunities.
Misner emphasizes that writing articles is an extremely beneficial way to brand yourself and your business because it does not require having a large advertising budget. It is a plausible, virtually costless way to accomplish your marketing goals.
