Ways to have an effective network

Your network should know:

1) What you care about:

Cultivate, maintain and publish a list of things you care about.
  • This will help people understand how to help you and what information to push to you.
  • This will help people know your expertise so they can connect you to opportunities
2) What you are the "goto" person for:

This includes not only your skills, but the people you know and the resources you can think about. Your personal "Team 100" or Million dollar roladex". By knowing you, they are also connected to contacts, suppliers, and resources.

3) What you know:

Make your knowledge available to your inner circle.

How do you value beyond "the transaction" to your clients and friends.
