		<description>Hi Sydni,

That is really a great article.  I&#039;m really good at networking and have seen the guy/gal who runs at you with his card in hand; big turnoff and a bit funny.

Anyway, after reading some of your articles, I really have been going about growing my business all wrong.  What I mean is, I have been trying to market to everyone.  I want to target those people who need transcription services or database management.  So my question is this, WHO should I target in regards to these services?  Please HELP!

		<description>Thanks for the feedback Karen!  I am a HUGE advocate of authentic, resourceful, down-to-earth marketing.  When we approach situations from a place of wanting to help others, instead of focusing on what we need, it creates a win-win situation for everyone involved. :)</description>

		<description>Sydni, I love your advice.  It is so right on.  I&#039;m an interior designer and the President of a chapter, for a network and marketing organization.  We network by building relationships, and learn about the types of referrals and strategic alliances each other is seeking, as your article states.  The organization has helped us to see that helping others get what they want has a full circle effect.  We in turn get what we want.</description>

		<description>Thanks for the note Merri!  Have you worked with any of your ideal clients in the past?  If so, the easiest way to find out where they are hanging out is to ask them.  If you have not worked with any of your ideal clients, you can also connect with other service providers who are targeting your audience with complementary services and find out where they are.  This could also be accomplished by researching what other organizations, associations or groups are already serving your market in your area and seeing what type of events they&#039;re hosting.  Give that a try and then stop back by to let me know how you make out! :)</description>

		<description>This is great advice.  I&#039;m still trying to figure out how to find the right networking events or groups.  As an interior designer, I want to meet women looking for high-end design.  They may or may not work out side the home and most likely volunteer for the arts in the community.  Help.</description>
