“The Strongest Networks are Built in Sunshine, Not Storms”
When you invest in relationships before you need them, you create a foundation of trust that weathers any business transition. Whether you’re changing your hours, or relocating, your network becomes your bridge between where you’ve been and where you’re going. The key isn’t just collecting contacts – it’s cultivating genuine connections that turn business relationships into lasting partnerships.
Three Key Takeaways:
- 1. Proactive Relationship Building: Network when you’re stable, not desperate
- 2. The BRIDGE Framework: A systematic approach to building authentic, value-driven networks that support you through any business transition
- 3. Transparent Communication: Keep your network informed about changes before they happen, turning potential disruptions into opportunities for deeper connection
