Blogging/Guest Blogging: Unexpected Places To Find New Customers, Tip #39
You Never Know Who You'll Meet
At a networking function, I connected with a gal involved in a national competition for recognition in her industry. I told her she had my vote and wished her the best. We kept in touch and when she won the contest, I asked if I could pitch a story on her venture. She was delighted — and so was my editor! The woman’s business continues to thrive and she now sends me solid story leads based on people she’s met through her endeavors. So, sometimes it really is who you know, rather than what.
