The more you can understand and appreciate the 'power of one' the greater the friendships, connections and opportunities will open up for you from your social media marketing efforts.
So what is the 'Power of One'?
It is the power of one person, one relationship, one bond, one connection, one conversation, one network, one opportunity that can all open up for you as a result from one single person that you befriend and build a new relationship with.
Each person you meet is someone who can open you up to new possibilities that you never thought were possible.
One month ago, there was an individual who I happened to meet via social networking and I had no idea what the background, contacts or industry he was involved in. But as our casual relationship grew low and behold this gentlemen happened to work for a national magazine publication that catered to the exact target market for my business.
After weeks of small conversation and connection I received an email from the editor of this national magazine inviting me to write an article for the next issue. Within one day after submitting my article to the editor I received another email congratulating me on the approval of my article which will be in their April 2009 issue nationwide!
Imagine that!
One new relationship that started out as simple sharing, conversation and connection resulted in national exposure for my business and the most powerful part was that I never even expected anything to come out of our conversations.
The point I'm trying to make here is always treat every person you meet as the most important person you ever met in your life. Take the focus off yourself and your needs and take a sincere interest in your new relationship.
You've heard the six degrees of separation right?
Well, it's only as good as the 'power of one' mindset.
The endless contacts, relationships and opportunities await you but will stop dead in its tracks if the one person who can open up these new possibilities to you won't.
Why wouldn't they?
Because you never took the time to understand, appreciate, and embrace the 'Power of One' person!
Make every connection count!
Make it a great day!
