    • The Ultimate Book on Networking
My book arrived from Amazon the day before I left to go SCUBA diving in Bonaire with friends, so I brought it with me to read on the plane. Before I returned, I had read it cover-to-cover, very slowly, twice, meticulously underlining hundreds of need-to-remember passages. This is the most important personal and professional book I've read in decades. For me it’s a true game-changer. It has caused me to rethink how I approach my business and work as a writer. An exceedingly well-structured and well-written book, it skillfully blends the idea of strategic, purposeful networking with the central imperative to generously add value, giving over and over without expecting anything in return. More than that, Robinett gives a wealth of specific how-to recommendations: • How to use social media to nurture your network. • How to put practical limits on your networking activities: the 5+50+100 rule. • How to evaluate who you’re connected to. • How to organize a system to keep track of existing relationships. • How to “ask” for what you need. • How to follow up after making contact. • How to “work a room” at a public gathering. • How to identify people you don’t want in your network. • How to assess your own value as a network resource. • How to approach a new contract. And a lot more. I especially liked her insights about the differences between male and female networkers. There is so much how-to “meat” about this vital subject that for me, it’s more than a how-to book. It’s a reference book. Before I adopt a tracking system, before I attend another conference, before I approach another high-profile influencer, I will reread the relevant chapters. I honestly feel that people who are trying to succeed in business and who haven’t read the book are at a serious disadvantage. My advice: get your hands on a copy and read it at your earliest convenience. ... show more

    • One of the BEST Power Networking Books - MUST BUY - Worth every penny!!!
MUST BUY! This is by far one of the best networking books I've ever read. Judy does a great job at going into depth about the social psychology of building and nurturing relationships. To be success, one must learn how to collaborate, share, and give in order to get. Are you asking "How can I help you?" at your events and networking mixers? If not, then you should read this book and see how by asking this simple phrase, doors will open up for you. Networking is the easy part. The hard part is knowing what to do after getting someone's business card and contact, especially the 'follow up'. Judy lays it all out for you and gives you many ideas, examples, and strategies on how to become a Power Connector like her. This was very insightful. If you are considering buying this book, Buy It Now. You'll be glad you did. Imagine yourself having more connections, contacts becoming business partners, and lifelong friends. It is true, Your Network is really Your Networth! Judy coaches you through this mind shift in thinking. Not many people realize this fact. Its not what you know, but also who you know. Every college graduate should have this book as their last course before they enter the real world. I meet so many MBA students and business people, they have no clue how to harness the power of their rolodex and networks. Their current mental state is always 'me me me' where it should be 'share, collaborate, and we all become successful together'. To be great and to do great, its all about "WE" and "US" not "I". I have read many books on networking and Judy did a superb job. I will be referring to her book for life and recommending it to friends, family and partners. I've never written an amazon review before, and this is how strongly I believe in Judy Robinett's teachings and her sharing her life's work. I highly recommend buying and learning. I'm a big fan and can't wait for her next... ... show more

    • Must-read guide for building strong relationships and connecting people to each other
I heard about Judy Robinett’s book, How to Be a Power Connector, when she was a guest on the I Love Marketing podcast. Judy delivered such a wealth of actionable ideas during the interview that I clicked over to Amazon and ordered her book before it was over. If she delivered this much useful information in just an hour, I was confident that much more awaited me in her book. And I was right. In fact, I was astonished at the comprehensive, yet simple, system she maps out in her book. Even if you don’t aspire to be an over-the-top power connector like Judy, her book contains absolutely the best approach I’ve seen for helping you think strategically about forming alliances with others. An often-repeated theme throughout the book is to adopt a “giver” mindset. She advises readers to seek first how you can add value, value, value and more value to others before asking for anything. Adopting this mindset has totally changed the way I think about people I’m connected with and how I structure my emails and conversations. The results are consistently positive. Every bit of her advice is brilliant, reflecting 25 years of practice and refinement. Throughout the book, she provides examples of how she has implemented her own system over the years. She's ingrained these skills to the point that she automatically looks for ways to connect people with others who can help them solve their most pressing problem or need. The core idea is 5+50+100. You make a list of all your current connections and then organize the top 155 into 3 power circles. The TOP 5 circle is composed of the individuals closest to you, usually close family, friends and business associates. The KEY 50 are friends and associates you can call on for help or advice—and they know they can do the same with you. For the VITAL 100, include people from a wide variety of locations, roles and “ecosystems.” Judy provides all the details for preparing, connecting, engaging, providing value and deepening these relationships. She explains exactly how to build a robust network that’s deep, wide and diverse. It’s all there, and because of that, I’ve been recommending this book to everyone I can. ... show more
