If you want to make a million dollars help someone else make a million dollars. I believe it was Zig Zigler who said that, or something to that affect. When you are helping others you are in turn helping yourself and it has the effect of ripples on a pond. You have no idea how far reaching your help may go when you are passing referrals and making connections for others.
This week is Make a Referral Week, a campaign started to help impact the businesses around the world during this economic down turn one referral at a time. I strongly believe that it will be the small businesses of the world that will turn the economy around, we are taking a new direction is society, more and more people want to work for themselves but not by themselves. Networking and referring business to one another allows us to do just that, we can work for ourselves but we do not have to work by ourselves.
Today, stop what you are doing, take a look at your network and find a way to help others by passing a referral to them. Take a proactive approach to helping others!
