What was the point of that?
That’s what I thought months after I left a networking group for good.
I had just asked a “friend” from the group if she’d extend an invitation to one of my Sophiall events. I figured, after closing two referrals for members that week, it wasn’t too much to ask.
But she refused. Her reason? I wasn’t part of the group anymore.
This is the same friend who regularly invited her non-member pals to meetings to sell their products. But now, suddenly, the rules applied.
And you know what? Her reaction reminded me of Sally.
After 15 years of running a profitable business that paid for her family’s home and her kids’ education, Sally thought she was set for retirement. She had plans to sell her business and enjoy the fruits of her hard work.
Then reality hit.
Buyers didn’t care about the business she’d built. They only cared about what her business could do for them—and Sally couldn’t answer that question.
Her business wasn’t sellable, and she faced two choices:
- Work several more years to fix it, hoping she’d get what she needed.
- Walk away with little to nothing and dramatically downsize her life in retirement.
It didn’t matter how much love or effort she’d poured into her business. Like my networking “friend,” buyers only cared about what was in it for them.
But here’s the good news: You can position your business to answer that question with confidence—and I can show you how.
