Networking Your Way to the Top!

Efficient networking. Zac asked me to write a post to help you guys with networking.

Just to give you my street credibility, this past weekend I was invited to Epic Direct Networks Playboy Mansion party, where I got to hang out with their new CEO Art,
and some of the biggest baller affiliate marketers in the world, and of course all my new bunny friends!

So to make this easy, I am simply going to teach you my biggest secret to network your way to the top.

It is so obvious and simple, that when you hear it you will know of course that is what you should do, but without it, you can literally waste an entire life of networking,
only to listen to beginners, braggers and salespeople, who know little more than you do.

Whenever I hit a new field, whether it was as a chiropractor, the internet industry, or any industry I have decided to dominate, I follow this pattern.

I start of by going to an event in that field, or reading about that field online. As soon as you hit the comments button online, technically you are in the world of networking.

At a conference or event, I will strike up a conversation with pretty much anyone. Don’t assume that the cool guy with the crowd around him is the one who knows, he
may simply be the one who is the most likable, but not the guy with the most important information.

So I will talk to the sales guy at the booth, the old guy sitting alone at lunch, the young kid, whoever. At some point in the conversation I will ask them whose opinion do they respect in
whatever subject I am interested in.

Example Script:

Me: So dude, whose advice do you respect in the field of rapping about internet marketing?
Dude: Ummm…I kinda once heard ShoeMoney lays down some pretty mean lines.
Me: Right on dude!

I then go find this shoemoney character and then ask him.

Me: So Shoemoney, I hear you are a rapper about internet marketing.
Shoemoney: Well… um… I did do a song about the Shoemoney System once, but it was a joke.
Me: Oh, well, who do you respect in rapping about internet marketing?
Shoemoney: Seriously? Why Rob Hustle, he is the man.

So now I go off and find Rob Hustle.

Me: So I hear you are an expert in Internet Marketing rapping?
Rob Hustle: Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba Beat! You rock now, gonna spin you a rhyme you can’t top now.
Making money down the middle, while the middle sleep. Make a million dolla’s while the rest is countin sheep.*

Me: Wow, I finally found THE guy.
* This horrific rhyme was written by me and not Rob. LOL

Then I will start with some other average guy in the industry, and keep working my way up to the top expert in that field.

Usually what happens is you keep doing this and keep ending up with the top one or two experts At that point I am pretty sure
I found the top.

If you want to hear and see a few stories on how I do this, more detail, a hot girl and a killer ocean shot, go check out the video I made on this.
