In this episode of Bella in Your Business, Bella offers up a recording of talk she gave to a faith-based business networking group in her area. In the talk she discusses approaching networking from a faith-based point of view.



She says that successful networking results from:



* Listening

* Caring

* Taking time to build trust

* Influence

* Finding "family" in networking



She offers some quick, but poignant tips:



* Better to get a card then leave a card

* Go to a lot of events. Arrive early and leave late

* Get around people that you like

* Ask someone out for coffee

* Don't be a "promoter" of your company

* Networking is always about "them" and not you.

* Don't be afraid to cast your net or you won't find those relationships

* Ask God to be your Holy business partner

* Shine your light!
