Got no time? Who says networking has to be a two-hour lunch meeting? Here’s a secret, you can rebuild your network using just five minutes a day!

Chapters filled with real world solutions
“I’ve got to tell you my biggest take away. It’s from Chapter 2. I never have any time, but I realized I can easily do that in less than five minutes. I was always great at making contacts, but not so great at maintaining them. Now I can. Thanks!”

Update:” James landed a new gig, and his boss, who admired James’ networking skills, pays for his Rotary membership! ”
