Million Dollar Networking: The Sure Way to Find, Grow, and Keep Your Business

by Andrea Nierenberg

The Wall Street Journal called Andrea Nierenberg a 'networking success story.' She is a master at helping others build their interpersonal skills to create strong business connections. In her first book, she told you how to improve your life, luck, and career through personal networking. In "Million Dollar Networking", this top corporate consultant focuses on what she knows best - building business through networking - and shows you how to find and develop a solid network of business relationships and lifelong customers. For all types of businesses––from financial services to advertising agencies, from retailers to technology companies ––Andrea provides the universal rules of effective networking, offers easy-to-follow steps for establishing your business connections, and explains the attributes of great networkers and how you can attain them. In her frank, relaxed style, Andrea’s new book is just as fun to read as her first, Nonstop Networking, and has useful tips and action points, plus exercises to help you incorporate her teaching into your business plan.

I highly recommend this book and would even give it a 4.5 if I could. It gives practical and very useful advice on how to be good at networking, which let's face it, no matter what industry you are in, is key. Whether you are an introvert or extrovert, this teaches you how to make meaningful connections, which ultimately can advance you professionally. But as the author points out, networking should always be about giving before anything else. And in that spirit, I give you all the advice to read this!

Networking is must these days, and his book tells you how to do it. I learned many of these tips on my own, and the book was good reinforcement. I also learned some new things.

Some of you may read this book and say "There is no way I can do all this.". And that's probably true, but this book expresses an ideal, something to aim for. If you set out to practice just some of these things, you'll be better off than you are now.
