It is easy to get distracted or to put it off but networking and developing relationship with others in the community is just too important to let the opportunities slip by. Part of knowing how to ask for a referral is establishing some goals or targets for each networking event. If you go to an event with the mindset that you are looking to meet an attorney, you will be surprised at how many attorneys you will come into contact with. Also it make the event fun if you can make a game out of it. This is great advice not only for new business owners but also for those of us who have been at it for years.
