There's been a lot of questions here lately about lead gen and networking, so I figured I'd share this. This was a featured presentation I gave in my BNI networking group back in 2022 that led to a few discovery meetings booked, and ultimately, 2 VBC projects. Posting content is great. Strategic outreach is great. Running ads is great. Any lead gen tactics can work. But if you don't know your greater strategy, you're gonna burn out and get discouraged. At this time, I was doing in-person networking and posting short form content. My strategy was "become impossible to ignore" and make it so that once I connected with someone, they saw me everywhere, and understood what the hell I do. Meet people -> Connect online -> Post content consistently -> Keep showing up to those people After people saw me enough, when they needed video, they'd shoot me a message, or a text, or an email, or bring it up in person next time I saw them. It wasn't always apparent that things were "working" from vanity metrics alone. This presentation played into my greater strategy because it broke down "what I do" into simpler concepts, and made it more relatable for people. This is what worked (and still works) for me. It would probably work for you, too. __ All in all, know your STRATEGY, not just the tactics. And if you don't know it yet, just borrow the way I did it and adjust as you figure out what works best for you.

"Your network is your net worth" is true, and it starts HERE We all know that community is everything when it comes to growing our businesses and leveling up- So let's take this to the next level by connecting beyond just this group. We all win when we start supporting each other more, sharing ideas, and giving that extra boost where we can. So here’s what we’re gonna do: - Drop your Instagram handles below so we can all connect, follow, and keep the collaboration going outside of just the Skool group 🙌 This isn’t about more followers—it’s about building real relationships, supporting each other’s content, and growing together as a squad (this is how @Ceebz Gerard and I linked up 5+ years ago). Whether you’re looking for feedback, inspiration, accountability, or just want to link up with some fellow content savages, this is the place to get connected! Remember, your next collab or big project could be just a DM away 🤙 🎯 Action: Post your IG handle in the comments and follow at least 3 new people today!

Catching up on past Q and A's and Ceebz is 100% correct about the opportunity and needs for corporate communications videos. I've down 75k a year for several years ALL Corporate Communication with 1 company, mostly internal, and its only increasing. (same company I told you wants to hire me) Dave mentioned competing with iphones or AI tools, and he's right. It's knowing what works and why, and taking the burden off their plate. Thanks guys!!
