This week’s Spark an Idea theme is ‘Sparking an Idea That Makes a New Business Ally”.
We may be in business for ourselves when it comes to the bottom line but we don’t get there on our own – especially not on the Interwebs!
The relationships you cultivate today may be a source of many cool new open doors and possibilities in the future.
Our awesome Sparkplugging Authors have some great ideas for cultivating new relationships:
- Susan says Make Friends, Not Competitors.
- Jenn & Michelle encourage you to Communicate and Follow Up!
- Tamara & Lorna say you can Buy Your Friends.
- Crissy says to Start with an Email.
- Brandie says to Connect Over Coffee.
- Leslie says Making Allies Takes Time.
- Bill says to Offer to Subcontract.
- Lynette says Partner with Geeks.
Now, can we hear from you?
