Business relationships are critical for top-performing growth. Relationships are a means of cultivating ideas, encouraging collaboration, and contributing to the community in your industry. But you need to stop networking if you want to see true success in your business relationships. In today’s episode, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros talk about networking and why it’s the one big piece of advice they stopped taking. Networking assumes that you are meeting fellow peers and industry players to get something in return – whether you're hoping to gain a client, a partner, a vendor, or a job. Instead, strive to become your best. Striving for excellence is an eternal desire that keeps driving our performance and influencing our results. Do that, and all the right people and the best results will come to you.
