Major Developments, Forward Motion, Events and Actionable Items: TNNW - We ARE Networking THE NATIONAL NETWORKER - WE ARE HERE TO HELP YOU SUCCEED. WE ARE HERE TO HELP EACH OTHER SUCCEED, TOO.
-A Brief Commentary by Douglas Castle
THE NATIONAL NETWORKER is an interconnected, interpersonal community, with a shared armory of fabulous intelligence, superb and dedicated writers, industry coverage, great entrepreneurial and networking tools (an unparalleled suite of services!), resources and PEOPLE...Not just our staff, but our Subscribers, our Members and our service providers.
We build together for each and all of us. And we build exponentially. We are growing bigger, better and stronger -- and even more importantly, we are keeping our editorial quality and editorial integrity to the highest standard. TNNW will never sacrifice quality for growth. WE WILL SETTLE FOR NOTHING LESS THAN BOTH. We have too much going for us to compromise, or to "sell out."
Adam J. Kovitz, who founded TNNW four years ago, created this vehicle, this tool, this gift...to help the (then) fledgling networking industry. It was Adam's intention to be the driving force in getting people connected, bonded, cooperating and uniting in a sincere, reciprocal effort to prosper. He does not compromise, and his vision is clearer than ever. Relationship Capital.
You will want to forward this message to everyone whom you know...family, friends, employees, colleagues, new contacts...everyone. You will request that they subscribe.
Within a short period of time, there will indeed be two types of people --- Members of the TNNW Community - and - robotic name collectors. I recommend that you be one of the first type -- and I also recommend that you get every single one of your friends to get in. Now. We build together for each and all of us. And we build exponentially. We are growing bigger, better and stronger -- and even more importantly, we are keeping our editorial quality and editorial integrity to the highest standard. TNNW will never sacrifice quality for growth. WE WILL SETTLE FOR NOTHING LESS THAN BOTH.
Amen.
Faithfully, and with great respect,
Douglas Castle

WHAT TNNW OFFERS ITS SUBSCRIBERS
THE WEEKLY NEWSLETTER (ALWAYS FREE. ALWAYS VITAL AND INFORMATIVE)
During the course of the past four years, THE NATIONAL NETWORKER has been a free weekly e-newsletter written about many aspects of the art and science of business networking. It has featured articles written by a number of different columnists and regional specialists. It is a true journal of significant import and quality, and has never been an “advertorial” or promotional piece, and it’s well-respected in the industry. It has been subsidized by fully-disclosed display advertisers and affiliate links, and through the efforts of Adam J. Kovitz, with the help of a small but very loyal group of visionary partners.
This weekly newsletter remains the cornerstone of THE NATIONAL NETWORKER, and its intelligence, integrity, objectivity and quality shall not be compromised. It will continue to be offered free to subscribers, and the articles shall continue to be non-advertorial.
INFO AND INTEL FEEDS
Between weekly Newsletters, various articles, offers, bulletins and news are streamed to subscribers by free RSS or EMAIL Feeds – in this way, TNNW has more of a daily presence to our readership, and we have an additional platform upon which to promote the Newsletter, as well as various services and products, as we deem appropriate. While these transmittals may contain advertisements or promotional content, they will always contain valuable information, news or insights.
THE TNNW SUITE OF SERVICES
TNNW offers its subscribers and members an unparalleled and ever- expanding suite of proprietary services to better effectuate networking, communications, marketing, advertising, public relations & promotion, image-building, branding, follow-through, organization, planning and profitability. They apply to businesses across the spectrum. We have assembled the greatest, most comprehensive and most powerful tools (at amazingly good prices) for networking and business development ever to be placed under one roof. Click on every one of these services...they are the best that you will find anywhere, and represent the best value by far. Let TNNW help you to achieve your business, financial and personal growth goals. Check out each one of these services:
1. The Relationship Capital Toolkit, RSS, Daily Email Feeds and Articles Click on this page to get information on all of our new services, and to receive a daily feed (between weekly issues) either by RSS or email (that’s correct…the RSS feed can be received as an email). If you don’t sign up for one of the feeds and make the page a favorite, you will be missing valuable information, additional articles, crucial intelligence, opportunities and special offers. Even if you’re getting THE NATIONAL NETWORKER now, grab the feed.Check this entire page out very, very carefully, and make it a FAVORITE. It contains four critical industry RSS newsfeeds (right on one page) about networking, public relations, advertising, marketing, technological platforms, social media, listing services, affiliate programs, statistics, publishing, new terminology, trends and a host of other topics that you should know about. It takes 10 minutes to read through all of these RSS or email feeds -- gain valuable, cutting-edge knowledge, and sound like an expert. Knowledge is indeed power. But don't forget that knowledge gives the impression of intelligence and preparedness. And first impressions count. (this service is free to all subscribers and members)
2. Calendar of Events Check our Calendar daily. It is available to the public, and will be distributed monthly to several million recipients. Make the page a favorite, and list your events to get the message out to the networking world. If you are a Member, you can post one event weekly at no charge. Publicize yourself and your events by adding your events to our Calendar.
3. Advertisements and Announcements
ADVERTISING WITH THE NATIONAL NETWORKER GETS RESULTS. We offer you nine options. Please take a moment to check out our Advertisements & Announcements page at http://tnnw9.blogspot.com/ .
4. Press Release, Publicity and Public Relations Our suite of services in these areas is unparalleled. Well-crafted releases yield greater responses and Search Engine Results than any other mode of advertising. The CPM (cost per thousand viewers) is lower than for any other form of advertising. Our pricing and abilities are the best available. Make the page a favorite, and harness the indisputable power of print and e-media to send your message, to get attention and to build your personal or company brand. Well-crafted press and news releases are the most cost-effective means of accessing the largest possible audience. You can get your news release out to as many as 25 separate newswire services, representing more than 25,000 publications both electronic and in print.....the potential readership that you can reach is well into the millions. The greater the number of press releases that you place, the more coverage you'll receive on future releases.
The ultimate victory is when reporters and journalists start to quote you as an expert in their independent articles! You need to issue releases if you are to establish yourself as an expert in your field, or if you wish to get your brand name OUT THERE.
5. Custom Text-Messaging Programs Instant communication via text messaging has become a three-fold breakthrough for working teams, networking groups and advertisers. Text-messaging now plays a key role in communications – ask Barack Obama (he won, didn’t he?) – His campaigning and fundraising activities were carried out through a communications mix of internet marketing and text-messaging. People might leave their laptops at home, but they carry cellular telephones in their pockets. This a powerful tool for tightening up corporate or group communications in real-time, and for accessing the Gen Y market population... in fact, the market where text-messaging is the most highly-utilized and well-received is for consumers between the ages of 12 and 36.Having said this, expect a new market to emerge amongst the Baby Boomers for this type of service during the course of these next two years.
6. International Agent/ Distributor Services The networking community is increasingly international. You can grow at an incredible pace by partnering with international agents, distributors, representatives, vendors and consumers. Through TNNW, you can now access pre-qualified international contacts with personal introductions…or, you can get pre-qualified leads sent to you to follow up directly. Our information comes direct from foreign embassies, consultates, trade bureaus, UN sources, The U.S Department of Commerce, The Customs Bureau, and international trade development agencies on every single continent. We give you choices. Build a virtual import, export or global “division” in cyberspace at a miniscule cost, and become global in no time! Note: As of the date of this writing, the US government-sponsored benefits and inducements to exporters are particularly attractive.
We can also arrange trade financing, letters of credit, payment guarantees, political and credit risk insurance and direct, personal introductions to international agents, representatives, distributors, wholesalers, and strategic co-venturers. The current US administration is rapidly opening barriers to all trade. Don't limit yourself. don't limit your company. Be "instantly international".
Get Global. Multiply your market in just a few months. TNNW can build you a virtual export or import division, rapidly, very inexpensively and with only minimal effort on your part. What's more, we'll help you make it successful -- we'll help you operate it!
7. Webinar and Broadcast Programs This suite of resources gives our Members the capability to produce professional quality webinars, broadcasts, pod casts and top-quality interview programs. Click on the site for a webinar series which we are hosting with ConferTel -- you may well want to sign up and enroll now.
8. TNNW Mini-Interviews When you write, you can be convincing. But when you personally answer questions about yourself and/ or your organization in a scripted telephone interview (downloadable in an MP3 format!), your appeal is dramatically enhanced. A TNNW MINI-INTERVIEW gives your audience an opportunity to hear your voice. Your listeners will get to actually "feel" your competence, enthusiasm and unique personality. Give yourself the advantage with a TNNW MINI-INTERVIEW. You can embed Mini-Interviews on your websites, blogs, press releases, newsletters and email signatures.
Special Note: WHY TNNW MINI-INTERVIEWS ARE SO EFFECTIVE
The Human psyche is an insecure creature. It constantly requires the reassurance of a "second opinion" or of an "impartial" third party. Accordingly, when you speak about yourself to a prospective client or business associate, it carries the automatic liability of being self-serving, and even patronizing of your audience. In a circumstance where the prospective client or business associate is allowed to "listen in" on a teleconference (formatted as a Q and A interview) between yourself and a professional-sounding interviewer), your presentation stops being a "dog and pony show," and becomes perceived as a critical interview. No longer viewed as an advertisement or an "advertorial", the TNNW MINI-INTERVIEW is seen as an informative newscast. And that makes you more credible and persuasive, with an implicit third-party endorsement by the interviewer. MINI-INTERVIEWS are radar-focused glimpses into your personality, as well as into your products, services and publications. Create a better bond with your prospective buyers... Make the relationship more personal, and you will markedly increase the likelihood of getting to "yes."
9. TNNW Surveys From time to time, and with increasing frequency, we will run a poll or survey to gather information for the benefit of all of our readers. These surveys are sent to in excess of one million prospective participants. If you have an idea for a survey that you would like to put out to the business networking community, go to the page and contact us about it. It is excellent press to get your name attached to the promotion of a survey…and we publish the results by whatever the deadline date on each survey is.
Surveys are not only a means of gathering intelligence and market research; they are a means of publicizing information while getting your company and your brand into the limelight. We will help you formulate your survey, format the survey document, circulate it over the widest appropriate audience, tabulate results and publicise them for you.
Soon, we will be featuring at least one major survey or poll weekly; either TNNW-sponsored or Member-sponsored.
