You’ve heard me say it before and trust me today won’t be the last time I say this. The most effective way to change the world, the most effective way to grow your business, the most effective way to raise awareness for a cause, really the most effective way to accomplish just about anything is to build and nurture a powerful network.
That’s what today’s guest is all about. He not only teaches this stuff, but he uses it in amazing ways, so let’s get right into today’s interview and you can learn from a networking expert.

Thanks Matt! It was an honor to be a guest on your show. Thanks so much.
Thank YOU John! It was an honor to have you and to share your wisdom with my audience.
This was one of the best episodes so far. I really gained valuable insights and ideas from this interview.
Awesome – thanks Jon!
Sure, John. Thanks for challenging the listeners with great information.
Great interview Matt, well done! The information that you and John shared was very timely for me as I’m very focused on building my network right now. Until a few months ago, I didn’t truly understand the power of a strong and active network. As an introvert, networking isn’t at the top of my favorite activities, but I’m learning how to make it work for me. The importance and advantages of a strong network is undeniable regardless of who you are or the work that you do.
Hey thanks Tyler!
Your network truly ends up being your net worth. No doubt about that in my life.
You might be interested in an event I’m putting together. It’s called “Networking with Purpose Live!” I’m not selling tickets just yet, but am offering it as a free bonus here: http://www.mattmcwilliams.com/review-michael-hyatts-5-days-best-year-ever-plus-698-bonuses/
Basically you pay $147 for that course and get a $199 ticket free. Check it out…I know the value from this event will far exceed $199. For me, the things I’ll share were literally worth more than $750,000 in the past four years.
Four years ago, I was fired. This year, I paid more in TAXES than I made that year. All because of my network.
Thanks Matt. Actually, prior to my earlier post, I did sign up for Michael’s BYE course (tues night) through your affiliate link.
I’ve also recently joined a great networking group in my local area called Successful Thinkers Network (STN) which meets over lunch each week. Unlike traditional networking events like you talked about in your podcast, they focus on developing relationships first, conducting 1x1s with other members, etc. In fact, they discourage the typical handing out of business cards and flyers.
Its FREE and they have chapters all over the world. Below is a link where you can learn more at http://www.successfulthinkersnetwork.com?invitation=OI45F0CEFF. (note: that is a referral link. There is NO monetary benefit for me, it just helps me grow my network within STN and lets other members know that I’m doing my part to grow the network)
This is just one of the things I’m doing to grow and nurture my network. I’m looking forward to your live event in January!
Hey thanks Tyler!
I’m looking into STN now.
