Paul Edwards Unfolds His Formula on Networking with Influencers. | 042

Paul is a professional content ghostwriter for faith-based
influencers who specializes in making an impact. He has a podcast
called Influencer Networking Secrets and he is the author
of Business Beyond Business. His Facebook has over 1.8k
followers and counting. 


Before Paul established his podcast, he went through an
intentional distancing by reading the holy book. He, then,
discovered that he needs to overcome his pride and unknowingly
did it while he was fasting. Later on, he found himself doing a
podcast and named it Influencer Networking Secrets. His podcast
is all about unfolding hidden recipes in networking with and by
influencers. Building relationships through being authentically
true to yourself.


In this episode, Paul shared his five formulas on networking with
influencers. The following are:


“What I want everybody to hear is you don’t have to wait until
you’re in front of a dream connection to do this… Focus on the
Farm Team.”


Paul began on the fifth tip of his book. Here, he wanted to tell
you that in your journey, you need to accept that those big ones
won’t come your way immediately. You need to settle first on
exerting effort to your local neighborhood before taking a larger
step.


“Be an angler… Be like a fisherman, right? … at angles, you have
to cast the bait at a certain angle in order to get the fish to
think that it’s actually bait otherwise the fish won’t fall for
it.”


There are specific places for business. You must know where you
should network. Not all occasions call for business.


“… keep your ear to the ground.”


Keeping your ear to the ground means that you should be alert on
opportunities ahead of you. It may be from a new friend you met
or a close friend that needs help. Paul gave a good scenario here
wherein the person and Paul both had a win-win situation because
Paul kept his ear on the ground and recognized an open door for
both of them.


“Pro Bono Publicity”


Everybody has social media nowadays. It is not merely for
entertainment but also for communication and news updates. This
means that you have a variety of social media platforms where you
can do business.


“If everything else fails, you can always still end up having a
face to face conversation with somebody where you can ask them
three questions that most people are not going to ask them.”


Finally, the last ingredient in his formula is with these three
questions:


“What’s going well for you? 

What’s not going well for you lately? 

What are you looking forward to?” 



You can pick one only or two but the greatest of them all is in
the middle. With these questions, you will know his problems and
may be able to provide solutions through networking.


Remember these five formulae next time you network with
influencers. Paul Edwards has been generous to provide us with
these tips and explained them all thoroughly. Let us know your
feedback on the formula.


Paul’s story is learning material for anyone, and this episode is
