As you may know already, real, effective networking takes a lot of time and effort and although the least costly of all marketing strategies, it can be costly, especially for businesses that are really struggling and do not have 2 cents to rub together.

I am right in the middle of renovating my home right now. If you have ever renovated a living space, one thing you will learn quickly is that you wish you had made all the changes you wanted to before you moved in, however, that is not always possible. It is only after living in a space for some time that you discover what you do and don’t want. The same applies for your lifestyle and your business.

Venturing into the unknown
What is familiar and known is comfortable. We know what to expect. We know how the story goes. And we know how we will respond. This applies to our lives and our businesses. There is nothing wrong with being comfortable and content. It is nice and important to be able to rest up and enjoy what we have created and worked hard for, but the trouble sets in when we become too comfortable for too long periods of time. Why? Well when we are too comfortable we actually get bored, we become stagnant and although we know we need a change, by this stage we have become lazy, complacent and also to fearful to make a change; fearful of losing what we have.
