Don't be Afraid of Networking

Because we live in the "Information Age," also known as the "Internet Age," there is a lot of attention being paid to social networking and Internet marketing. Though it seems a bit obvious that businesses and individuals can work together to achieve mutually beneficial results, there is often a hesitancy to incorporate new and creative networking ideas because people may feel it is manipulative or disingenuous somehow. The key is to consider the manner in which your business is beneficial to others and to keep these positive aspects of your product or service in mind. Not only is networking natural, recent studies show that plants generally network with other species of plants sharing valuable information. So, if plants can utilize networking techniques, you probably can also!
