Ep43:Leverage Relationships for More Inquiries

 

Your network is your safety net when things go wrong and your fishing net to feed your business. So how do you go about building relationships – and capitalizing on them – in a way that feels authentic to you? In this week’s episode of Own Your Business, I sit down with Megan Gillikin, a master networker and one of the most genuine human beings I know to:

  • Network successfully even if you’re an introvert or have imposter syndrome

  • Surprise and delight couples during the client journey

  • Connect with new friendors who align well with your brand

  • Earn more referrals without sounding cheesy
