"...very valuable and in-depth guide providing useful summaries and checklists. The book goes deeper into the nature of trust and understanding between people, which I consider essential for any meaningful endeavour, both personally and professionally."

“…appealingly written with anecdotes and stories to illustrate different points… the writing is clear, direct and active making it feel as if selling through networking and referrals is straight forward, so long as you do it well…

This was a well written book and would prove useful to professionals:

    who already use networking and want some extra ideas
    who haven't been sure how to use their networks to ask for referrals
    who previously viewed networking as a bit of a chore, handing out business cards and getting no return
    new to networking and want ideas about how to start

I’ll give ‘Recommended’ 9 out of 10 and will use it as a regular reference for my own strategy.”
