“Collaboration Requires Connection” – Blaney Teal
Starting us off all was Blaney Teal of MBX. Blaney who shared her top 3 steps for making the connections necessary for building our success…
1) Look for people who have values that match yours – successful connections happen with those that see, live and want to give back in similar ways to your own.
2) Go into a connection with an abundance mindset – There is more than enough to go around and the truth is not every potential client is going to be a match. Connecting with people in the same niche creates more opportunities for referrals and the widening of both your networks.
3) Use LinkedIn to make new connections – This is the perfect place to research exactly who people are. It is a great option to find new speakers for your event and widen your network reach.

They care about getting value from your presentation.” – Suzannah Baum
For many of us the very idea of getting up in front of a room full of people whether that be on a live stage or in a Zoom meeting can be extremely overwhelming. All of a sudden we go from knowledgeable to questioning everything we thought we knew. Asking ourselves questions like; who’s going to listen to us and why should they even bother?
The reality is our audience no matter who they are or where we are presenting to them don’t care if we have it all together inside. They are there to learn and gain valuable knowledge and insight from us as their teacher in that moment.
