MASTERING THE MEMBERSHIP MAZE: Economic Recovery Is Our Responsibility


Mastering the Membership Maze
with Glen Gould


Today you can spark an economic revolution. Are you up for the challenge?

It has been said that environment is a direct reflection of the people in it. If you want to change the environment, just change the people. Shouldn't this apply to our economic situation as well? So how do we change the local economy? By changing the way the people interact and do business. When each of us becomes more focused on helping our friends, neighbors, and local businesses, everyone will experience an economic revival and it starts by referring friends and acquaintances to people we know.

And best of all, it's not a new skill to learn. You've already referred people to others before. Maybe you referred a friend to a local dry cleaners or auto mechanic. Perhaps you helped someone find a store in town when asked, or maybe you just conveyed well wishes from one friend to another. These are all forms of networking. Everyone is networking all the time, whether for business, charity or friendship, networking is a part of all our lives.

Networking is and has been one of the most relied upon ways for small and large businesses alike to build their business base. Networking is cost effective, easily measured for success or failure, and often times fun! It brings great joy to know that you have helped someone address a need or solve a problem

Most everyone knows that a customer that comes to us through word of mouth promotion is very likely to be one who will become a loyal customer and one who will send us future referrals. But did you know that a potential contributor to your favorite charity will donate more money more often if they have a personal or networked relationship with that charity? Even our relationships are enhanced when we are referred to a potential new friend. As the saying goes, “Any friend of yours is a friend of mine”. What most people don’t know is they can control to a large extent the quantity and quality of the referrals they receive.

There is a golden rule in networking as there is in life; treat others the way you wish to be treated. In business, local business owners wish for local consumers to shop in their store. As consumers, we wish for businesses to give us excellent service, quality, and value for the price we pay. Whether buying or selling, we wish for others to consider our needs.

So here's the challenge: Start your own personal economic revolution today. Meet someone new or get to know someone you already know better. Ask them how you can help them and then go about the process of connecting them to someone you know. Remember, successful networking and economic recovery will happen when we remember the golden rule.

Update! - Please Read This Important Request From The Vice Chairman. [January, 2009, Week 3]

Update! The National Networker Newsletter™Info. Intel. Services. More.

January, 2010, Week 3 - Update!
Update Issue # 27

An important request from the Vice-Chairman to all of our TNNWC colleagues, members and readers:

Subject: Collaboration Experts and Visionaries Needed.

Dear Colleagues:

I am aggressively seeking collaboration experts, advocates and thought leaders who are interested in writing (brief entries as part of a cooperative forum) and promoting their views about any of the topics below:

· Collaboration software and technology;

· Collaboration ideology, theory and philosophy;

· Breakthrough thinking through collaboration;

· Equitable sharing of the efforts (costs) and benefits (profits) of intellectual property and other assets developed through the collaboration mechanism;

· Trends and future predictions regarding the expansion of the practice of collaboration and/or the technology associated with it.

This effort is being undertaken in conjunction with The National Networker Companies (http://www.TheNationalNetworker.com), and has the promise of being high-profile.

Should you have an interest, I would welcome the opportunity to discuss this project with you in greater detail. The Group will be called "Accelerated Breakthroughs," and will be working under the auspices of TNNW’s GICBC (Global Interworked Cooperative Business Community). We already have a substantial readership and prospective market base upon which to showcase our group, and to whom we can intelligently and tastefully promote the services of each of our principal forum participants. There exists a tremendous opportunity for participation in the ownership of valuable intellectual property, publication and promotion.

You can find my profile at http://www.linkedin.com/in/douglascastle, or at http://aboutDouglasCastle.blogspot.com .

Please send your inquiries and expressions of interest directly to http://twitlik.com/Collaboration. (a pop-up instant email form). Please write the word “Collaboration” in the subject line of your correspondence.

I hope to hear from you very soon. Thank you for your consideration.

Best Regards,

Douglas Castle

You've asked, so we've answered...and we've printed it in teal.

Q: What will it mean to be a "Member of The National Networker GICBC?"

A: Being a Member of TNNW's GICBC (a fancy acronym for Global Interworked Cooperative Business Community) will be the best decision that you have ever made for yourself, both personally and professionally. Membership will continue to be free, and all Members signing in on our homepage (http://www.TheNationalNetworker.com) will receive our weekly Newsletter, our Blue Tuesday Report (although persons in France will be receiving 'Le Mardi Bleu') and frequent announcements, intel and opportunities from our e-presses. And... the additional benefits will be unsurpassed:

  • Working collaboratively (i.e. up "close and personal") with other Members to develop, improve and to grow every significant aspect of YOUR business;

  • Access to an international pool of talented, experienced and connected individuals from the entire International Community;

  • Access to ongoing mentoring, and to ongoing mentoring opportunities;

  • Constant promotion and Search Engine Optimization of your business' product or service brand (this part will still be free, and more powerful, with more media outlets and media crossover and echo than ever before);

  • Access to all of our Members Only (*like those jackets some of us wore in the early 1980s) Suite of Services, including News Releases, Buzzing, Branding, International Joint Venturing, Financing, Risk Management, Advertising, Market Research and a host of others...
More importantly, being a Member will mean being a part of an interactive community with proactive personal introductions, suggested partnerships and constant connection to other Members who will get to know you, and whom you'll get to know -

Most importantly, being a contributing and participatory Member will lead to your becoming a stakeholder in our organization. We won't be selling shares; we'll be giving them to worthy Members in exchange for their Human Value contributed to the GICBC. Think of it like this:

"It's sort of like doing a group of friends a good turn when they're startin' their business and having them issue you stock in their company for your efforts. And then, well then, their company goes public and the help that you offered turns into your fortune. I reckon it's a bit like doin' Bill Gates a favor right before Microsoft gets capitalized. It's the ultimate win in life's 'bein' in the right place at the right time' lottery." - An actual quote from a friend in Oklahoma.

You, and everyone whom you consider a colleague, will want to join. We say this with absolute certainty. And Membership will continue to be free. Join us.
