There are literally thousands of networking organizations available for anyone wanting to participate.

How to start conversations? What to say to make yourself memorable? How to insure that others will want to do business with us? What can we do to improve our performance? Author, Bonnie Ross-Parker has a background in franchising and network marketing. For more than two decades, she has attended countless networking meetings and events and constantly witnesses the same scenario -- individuals pushing their card in your hand and asking you to call them when you need the service they offer!

We all care deeply about the overall experience of the buying process--the marketing message, subliminal cues, the sales approach, personal human interaction...and more.
