Collaborative working.

Often we find that we are not able to supply all of the skills for a client specification and perhaps turn down the opportunity of a piece of work. Look at Networking from another angle. When you have built relationships with people in your circle you also have the ability to call in all the extra skills you need to supply a complete package as well as opening the door for work to be passed your way from these contacts. Set up a Service Level Agreement with these businesses and achieve a win/win situation for all involved.
This makes another good reason to continue Networking and increasing your circle of contacts. Opportunities are all around us if we look outside of the box, however, sometimes it is too easy to walk away rather than think through the alternative approaches.
