We discussed money and happiness on The BIGG Success Show today. Here’s a summary of that discussion.

Today on The Bigg Success Show, we welcomed Melissa Giovagnoli. Melissa is an author, speaker, coach and entrepreneur. Of her 11 books, four have been on the best seller’s list and one was featured on The Oprah Winfrey Show. She is one of the world’s leading experts on networking and has appeared on The Today Show, CNN, CNBC, and Fox. She was recently named the “best networker in Chicago” by Crain’s.
As a networker, you might set a goal of meeting two people. If you’re a networlder, you would set a goal of meeting two people who you can form a long-term relationship with and build opportunities for you, for them, and for the greater good.
The “overstuffed Rolodex syndrome”
Many people confuse activity with accomplishment. You leverage your network by thinking about who would be good connections for you. Start with people who have complementary values. With the online world, you can have quality and quantity by being specific about what you ask for to create a vibrant exchange.
7 levels of support
Networking isn’t about taking. It’s also not about just giving. You can support people:
Emotionally
By providing information
By providing knowledge (information plus experiences)
By promoting them
Through wisdom sharing (the 20 percent that will yield 80 percent)
By creating transformational opportunities
Community (creating the greatest good for the greatest number)
