Podcast: Easy, Effective Strategies of a Super-Networker

As anyone in business knows, strategic planning is critical to achieving long-term success. In How to Be a Power Connector, super-networker Judy Robinett argues that strategic relationship planning should be your top priority. When you combine your specific skills and talents with a clear, workable path for creating and managing your relationships, nothing will stop you from meeting your goals. With high-value connections, you’ll tap into a dynamic “power grid” of influence guaranteed to accelerate your personal and professional success.

Robinett uses her decades of experience connecting the world’s highest achievers with one another to help you build high-value relationships. In this 30-minute teleclass, she’ll reveal her trade secrets, including the proven ways to:

Find and enter the best network “ecosystem” to meet your goals
Reach even the most unreachable people quickly and effectively
Get anyone’s contact information within 30 seconds
Create a “3-D connection” that adds value to multiple people at the same time
Access key influencers through industry and community events
Subtly seed conversation with information about interests and needs
Use social media to your best advantage

Robinett has based her methods on solid research proving that social groups begin to break up when they become larger than 150 people, and that 50 members is the optimal size for group communication. As such, she has developed what she calls the “5+50+100” method: contact your top 5 connections daily, your Key 50 weekly, and your Vital 100 monthly. This is your power grid, and it will work wonders for your career.

Judy Robinett is the author of How to Be a Power Connector: The 5+50+150 Rule, a book that provides instant, effective strategies for meeting the people you need to know and bonding with them fast to further your goals and theirs.
