Network continuously

Join industry and trade associations, attend every meeting, and get involved in the groups' activities. Introduce yourself to people in business and social settings, hand out your business cards, and tell others what you do. Ask people what businesses they are in and how you can refer more customers to them. Always look for ways to help other people achieve their own goals. The more you give of yourself without expecting something in return, the more rewards will come back to you from the most unexpected sources (via bt).
