Get More Out of Networking
Show others
you are genuinely interested...and follow up!
NETWORKING is about
building relationships. Be sure to email or call new contact(s) within a
week. Follow up quickly with referrals. This establishes you as the
"go-to person" and reinforces that you are reliable. Effective business
networking is the linking together of individuals who, through trust and
relationship building, become walking, talking advertisements for one
another.
THAT'S WHAT TNBA IS ALL ABOUT!

TNBA NEWS NOTES:
From Kendrick (NFL) and Nicole Gholston re: their
young son Caleb: Nicole and I met with the doctors
Tuesday to further discuss his progress and overall health. Caleb is a
very sick little boy and is going in the wrong direction. They consider
him as a patient with multiple organ failure. I guess I should explain:
Go Here for the entire
story.
Please pray that
Adiah and Joshua's faith is not shaken, and that they are able to
understand in their own little way. Please pray that Caleb will know and
feel the love of God and his family all the days he has left until he
goes "HOME". Thanks for the concerns and prayers, they are appreciated.
