Last night over at Senses, I met with someone who will soon be leaving one networking company and starting his own company. I won't be mentioning any names on here, but lets just say with his experience it should go over quite well. I'll be setting up his site, most likely and with that, hopefully expand my own range of contacts. In order to get ANYTHING done in this city, you HAVE to have contacts & networking is one of those ways to get things done.
Last time I was back in Warren, I went to the WCCBI networking social over at the bank. It was quite different than what one would find in Shanghai. In both cases, there were lots of people & lots of drinks. But in Warren, I didn't receive a single business card, nor did I give any out. In Warren, everyone already knows everyone else, so no business cards were needed. But in Shanghai, if you don't have a business card, then you don't have business. At least not through networking.
