		<description>Cheryl,&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thanks for the comment - great point about the value of your time.  Anyone that has ever been to a 2 hour networking event that wasn&#039;t a good fit (or just a dud) definitely knows that&#039;s 2 hours they&#039;re not getting back!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Shawn</description>

		<description>This is some good advice when it comes to networking as a lead generation marketing strategy.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I think most people do NOT place enough attention on your point 4 identifying where to network.  If a networking event isn&#039;t well attended by the people most likely to buy your stuff it&#039;s nearly impossible to get an ROI for your efforts.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Contrary to what many people think even &quot;free&quot; networking events aren&#039;t free.  Once you include the value of your time to attend and travel to the event, the cost to travel to the event, additional costs such as meals etc.  These &quot;free&quot; networking events become nothing more than costly fishing expeditions.</description>
