Networking
It’s not always about what you know, but whom you know. Wikipedia defines Business Networking is a socioeconomic activity where groups of like-minded businesspeople recognize, create, or act upon business opportunities. I believe Networking is the key to success in this day and time. Don’t get me wrong, there are some people who’s talents have gotten them to where they are, but not everyone is that fortunate. As an upcoming music producer, I learned fast how networking could really benefit a person trying to start off in their field of choice. By getting out and just talking to people really helped me on this road to becoming a producer. It really all started when I first met Charlie Jabaley, the current manager of the hip-hop group Travis Porter.
As I began to go out to different events with him and the group, I always made sure that I talked to as many people that I could. If nobody knows you or what you are trying to do, how can you be successful? This is what I would ask myself when I first began trying to build up my network. There are many different types of strategies people use when it comes to networking. I’ve had some success by just going out and meeting different people in my field. I also use my social networking sites such as MySpace, Facebook, and Twitter to promote what I am doing as well. These social sites are becoming a key tool for networking. They are becoming more popular by the day as people around the world become aware of its possibilities.
