Turn up and get ahead...
Anyone who knows me knows I love a bit of networking.
Today I met with a potential new venue for a major event in 2027. More of that later.
How did I get to be there today, working collaboratively to come up with an amazing deal for us, the venue and everyone who is going to visit it?
Well, 16 years ago, I met . He and I have chatted ad-nauseum and worked together on tons of things. 2 years ago, he introduced me to Ciaran from a Cinema Chain. I spoke to Ciaran many times, at length, and we hit it off. We then did a partnership to bring networking events around the UK into cinemas. At one of those events, a venue manager came along, and we got chatting. That resulted in us agreeing to chat more and talk about collaborations. Today, after 4 trains and 4 hours, we met and worked out a fabulous arrangement.
This all traces its origins back to a phone call in 2010.
The moral of the story. Have a chat. About anything. Get to know one another. Amazing things will happen.
Find someone on here you don't know. Start a conversation. Let me know where it takes you.
