SEO expert and internet marketer, Neil Patel talks of how important it is for businesses to grow their social networks and forge relationships.
In the following video, Neil narrates the story of how he landed his first real break. He did this by leveraging his business relationships, and not by using any high-flown SEO or ad strategy and campaign.
He proved his mettle to one client and asked if he could refer him to people he knew. When the client did that, he suddenly had many more prospective clients who then referred him to all the people they knew!
Sometimes, falling back on the business relationships you build along the way can be the best way to expand your business further.
Hiring a copywriter or writing company to draft your first mail, establishing contact with a prospective client – may be a good idea and even lead to your first big sale!
