Carol Deckert’s Summary

OPEN NETWORKER! caroldeckert@comcast.net

MODERATOR: LinkedIn Power Women Group (LIPW)-
Invitation for all LinkedIn women to join us at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/LinkedInPowerWomen

Netweaving is ALL ABOUT PAYING IT FORWARD - Help someone get what they need and/or want with no expectation of immediate payback and you will receive tenfold over when you least expect it!

Be a netweaving master - be the first to ask how you can help and then LISTEN to the answer(s) you get. Being a good resource is part of netweaving!

Netweaving is all about being a Connector - making connections. Whether for yourself or for others, when you have a connection, be sure to maintain it - are you keeping in touch? How often do you contact these people and what do you do to create value for your network? Connections are the stepping stones to relationships.

Connect with me . . . and TELL me about you and what you do - don't SELL me! As a coach, I can help you learn these techniques to effectively and efficiently build your network! If you are interested in learning more, email me (caroldeckert@comcast.net), phone (717) 394-6453) or Skype (Deckert1116)! Let's chat soon!

My Target Market includes entrepreneurs, solo professionals, coaches, authors, public speakers and home-based business owners

What can I do to help you? Do you need a resource or a referral? Talk to me!

  RUNLancaster is a face-to-face networking organization focused on educating like-minded individuals who are enthusiastic about growing their business and not wasting their valuable time in tracking down lukewarm/ cold leads or tips. Providing qualified business referrals eliminates the time-wasters that are not expecting us to call; do not know who the person is who told us to call; do not have a need for the product/service we provide and most importantly, do not have the money to spend on our product or service! We believe in paying it forward before any business is exchanged!
  
  RUN is exclusive - only one member per business category is permitted. Members pay an annual fee to participate. RUNLancaster is based in Lancaster, PA. If you are tired of business and referral groups that just don't deliver high caliber business referrals, then you owe it to yourself and your business to check out RUN! Join us and we'll meet you at the top . . . because the bottom is just too crowded!
