Something every Spark-ED member building a professional network needs to hear today.
"Network more" is the advice you have probably heard constantly.
Collect as many contacts as possible. Connect with everyone. Treat it like a numbers game.
That advice is wrong.
Opportunity does not come from five hundred connections who barely remember your name.
It comes from a small number of people who genuinely know you and think of you when something relevant comes up.
Volume-focused networking dilutes every relationship until none of them are strong enough to actually do anything for you.
Go deep with a small number of relationships instead of wide with many.
How do you know which relationships deserve the depth.
Genuine mutual interest, not just a polite connection.
Something specific you can offer them, not just what they can offer you.
Drop below one relationship in your life right now that you could invest in more deeply instead of chasing new connections. 👇
