Introduction

A RUNNING STARTNot a collection of transactions, but a long-term investment into which you put time, effort, and service before you receive those things from others.

VISIBILITYStart small.

Introduce yourself and invite others to coffee or lunch.

Volunteer.

Become an industry expert.

TENACITYKnow your goals and plans.

Know others’ goals and plans.

Don’t get discouraged if it feels one-sided.

Realize it takes time.Flickr: Jaina

RELIABILITYCommunicate. All the time.

Deliver what you say you will, when you say you will.

Go beyond the minimum.
