While I am performing a number of initiatives, a big one is upping my game in the referral marketing (sales) arena by taking a course from a gentleman, Tom Gay , who I have known for over 10 years. When he moved to Boise, Tom and I connected on LinkedIn and he also became a member of my networking groups, NetWorks!

I have always been an effective networker. In the past, I have owned and operated three professional networking groups as a for-profit business. I am a referral junkie. My business was driven by new commercial construction and … there was none. I had developed my first networking group as a side hustle.

This past January I passed ownership of my networking group, NetWorks! I had a good run but I’m also getting a bit long in the tooth and it was time to focus on my other passion, training businesses on how to best leverage Nimble CRM. was designed to be what I would call an “active networking group”.

I have always considered myself to be a very active networker. This includes social networking. I own and operate, as a business, a B2B networking group. At night, I entered each into my CRM. . So, what is a “power partner networking“ ? . Becoming referral worthy. Actually, not so much. I avoid them.

As such, I look at my networking activities as investments rather than expenses. While I can tell you that I can credit millions of dollars in projects directly to my networking efforts, you are going to want and need to track your own results. Referrals given to who. Referrals received from who. Return On Investment.

My failed venture into providing an online course for Nimble CRM has been shut down. . I had spent a part of 2022 trying to break into electric signage (my background as an owner and a manager) as a vertical market for my consulting services. One obvious area in securing client testimonials and referrals. Not even one sale.

Referrals to a major account are like a Wonka Chocolate Factory Golden Ticket. Social networks – Presences for you and your company need to be established, and maintained, but only where your target customers are found. A good CRM and a Social CRM would be even better – A CRM is not a simply an electronic Rolodex.
