Show Objectives 
Do you want to be successful? There are many different, important aspects of being a well-rounded, successful business owner. In today’s show, we will explore Strategic Connections, what they are, their importance, and how to go about making those impactful connections.

By the end of our time together today you will...
Hopefully have a better understanding of the need to be very strategic in the connections you need to make and how you can use this to positively impact your business and social development.

What Is Strategic Connecting? 
Strategic connecting equates itself to the business strategy of advancing a company or organization. In this strategy, you are finding out how the opposite party can be a stepping ladder for you. 

Let’s be real here. This means you aren’t going to waste time with people who are on common ground right? In most cases, both parties benefit because each party has something that person wants in order to arrive at something.  

Normally there is common ground and those individuals have something that person can utilize. So, you reach out to connect for advancement. 

The tricky part to this is, is the advancement something of good or bad.  Are those strategic connections led by good or by greed? 

Now, you might well say, business is Business if it’s done right, but when it comes to positive impact, I feel there has to be a different approach. I think that when you use impactful strategy to properly connect with others, you really have to evaluate the intent? 

Will this be a win-win business relationship?

As the late and great Zig Zigler always used to say:

“You can have everything in life you want, if you will just help enough other people get what they want”

Today we will be talking into Strategic Impactful Connections

I will be diving into some of the following areas… but it all depends on you, the listener, how much of that I will cover. Your questions or input on this subject are much more important to us.

"Acquaintances...represent a source of social power, and the more acquaintances you have, the more powerful you are."    Malcolm Gladwell in The Tipping Point

Final thought:
They still haven’t found what the human brain is capable of so why do most of us live with self limiting beliefs? Why do so many of us think we can’t do certain things? Why do so many of us already defeat ourselves before we even start something? 

Your goals, your aspirations, your destiny …it’s all waiting for you with open arms.
