Andy Lopata - "Connecting is not Enough"
Andy is a business networking strategist, who works with companies on how to use networking tools to develop their businesses. He produces an excellent regular newsletter "Connecting is not Enough" and has written the excellent Definitive Guide to Public Networking and Speaking "And death came third", Amazon link here and "Recommended: How to Sell Through Networking and Referrals", Amazon link here.

"I believe that networking is a vital tool in business, from sales generation to career development. Unfortunately, it's still not treated with the same strategic consideration as other business methods, leaving many companies and individuals failing to realise the potential their networks offer. By knowing why you are networking and what you want to achieve, it is possible to plan accordingly and get great, measurable results." Andy's Youtube channel is HERE and numerous resources HERE.
