Well anyone following me on Twitter will know that I was in London at the weekend and caught up with Alex Jeffreys before he went Underground !! And what an awesome weekend we had meeting up with other Alex Jeffreys Coaching students and some other top Internet Marketers who were there for Frank Garon’s seminar.

In edition to meeting with Alex Jeffreys I had the privilege to, to hang out with John Thornhill (the top UK Ebay Powerseller amongst other things) plus Dave Nicholson (another top IMer). Plus got to meet with some other Alex Jeffreys Coaching Students as well; Mark Austin, Paula Brett, Dan Briffa and Dean Holland. What a great opportunity to network, exchange ideas do a bit of brainstorming and oh yes …. Have a bit (a lot!) of fun as well !!!  Best example of mixing business with pleasure I’ve ever seen :-)

One thing hit home to me very clearly. Building relationships through networking is an essential element to help you fast-track your business to success. Seeking out potential Joint Venture (JV) partners and building relationships with them has been an essential strategy in Alex’s own progression over the last couple of years.

Now I appreciate not everyone can get to seminars (particularly when they are half-way around the world for some) but you don’t necessarily have to, to make solid progress. Alex explained entirely how he did this on his recent Coaching Course without the need to leave the comfort of your own home! And I already have mentioned a technique above to forge relationships! There are loads of ways and you are reading another one of them now – Blogs! As many on Alex Jeffreys‘ recent Coaching Course can vouch for, a strong community type spirit can be built up using just blogs alone and thus many in the group have already forged great friendships, alliances and Joint Venture arrangements already. I know I have :-)   But I am not alone.

Plus, in my prior post I also mentioned all about the JVVillage a community which now has approaching 600 active like-minded people. All making JV offers and potential future JV Partners as well. Why not join me in there?

So there are loads of ways to start networking and to build great relationships that might serve you well in the future and/or have great fun along the way. And having fun and enjoying what you are doing is essential to anything you do. And I’m LOVING IT!

So before you just click away from this page, think of at least one thing you CAN DO NOW …… YES NOW ….. that you haven’t done as of yet to start forging even more relationships with like minded people. DO IT NOW. All these small steps add up, but you have to put one foot in front of the other to get anywhere! I’d love to know what you have DONE or are DOING in this area so drop me a comment below to let others know too that you are serious about all this.

And just to finish off, here’s me having a great time over the weekend and meeting with Alex Jeffreys. :-) :-) :-)
