Starting a business to build wealth, you’d need to consider NETWORKING
WHAT IS NETWORKING?
Networking is not simply an information exchange between you and another person. It involves establishing relationships with people who will often become your friends and community of colleagues as you go through your career. They may be able to help you advance your career in many ways, just as you may be able to help them advance theirs. A networking contact might result in any of the following:
Inside information on what's happening in your field of interest, such as an organization's plan to expand operations or release a new product.
Job search advice specific to your field of interest, like where jobs are typically listed.
Tips on your job hunting tools (i.e. resume and/or portfolio).
Names of people to contact about possible employment or informational interviews.
Follow-up interview and possible job offer.
Developing your network is easy because you know more people than you think you know. Consider:
•family, friends, roommates, and significant others
•club, organization, and association members
•people at the gym, the local coffee house, and neighborhood store
•people in your religious community
