A young entrepreneurs strategy for applying Adam Rifkin's strategy of 1-3 introductions per day.
Robyn's article has a strong start:
“Eat your own dog food” is, of course, wise advice for any entrepreneur — for anyone selling anything. But what if the eating is trickier than occasionally closing your eyes, pinching your nose and swallowing quickly. What if you have to build a habit too?
I started wondering about this puzzle, finding Pavlov’s proverbial bell, after reading an article on how Adam Rifkin, the world’s top relationship builder, makes introductions.
Adam’s principle 1: Make introductions every day.
“An introduction is the most powerful daily action you can take to build [a network]. In just a few minutes, you can have a dramatic impact on the lives of two people and generate a large amount of goodwill for yourself and the overall community you’re building.”
Robyn says that committing to this practice every day has made her more productive AND happier.
Awesome.
