The saying "it's who you know, not what you know", is overly simplified. I think it's more a case of who you know helping you to learn what you know. The case in point was just this very evening when Spectrum Photography (photocurt.com) was at a networking shindig at the Junior Achievement center in Indianapolis. It was hosted by B.N.I., Rainmakers and Confluence. Not only did Spectrum get the chance to display portraits at a vendor's booth, but the organizers had three very good presenters who addressed very different, but essential elements of business growth. I was particularly impressed by a consultant named Kyle Lacy, who focused on how to make better use of internet networking sites. That's one reason I'm blogging, because Kyle emphasized the importance of regular blog submissions.
Earlier in the day, I had a chance to put my camera to use at another networking event, The Samaritan Caregivers annual Chocolate Celebration at the Kokomo Mall. I'm simultaneously regretful and proud of myself for not having indulged. Next year, I'll partake, especially if something like this offering by The Windmill Grill is available.
