Help Others... Help Yourself

posted on March 10, 2008

Today I had a really fun experience. I called one of the smartest most well connected bankers I know to connect him with another friend who could benefit from his expertise. As we were catching up on what was going on in our own lives I quickly realized he was in a position to help me with one of my own challenges. This was not the intent of my call at all, nor had I even considered the possibility.

Every now and then the return on your networking investment is immediate and more than you expect. Had I not tried to help my friend I never would have known this resource existed.

You never know how helping someone else will help you in return. Rarely is it immediate, nor does it come back in the way you expect it to... But it does come back, usually with interest!

Happy Networking!
