Presenter bio
Derek Irelan, Director of Business Development for Mobile Video Guard. I have been in sales for over 30 years in a variety of roles – inside/outside sales…account manager, account executive, sales manager, and business developer. I was involved with BNI (Business Networking International) for over 10 years and held various leadership roles (Chapter President, Vice-President, Assistant Regional Director). I have used my networking skills in real life to create meaningful relationships which extend beyond customers and working connections. Every connection is a pending relationship where one can help the other, and vice versa! You NEVER know who someone else knows!

Connect the Dots: Networking for success
Discussing and breaking down a framework on how to grow, cultivate, and expand your professional network. Go beyond the collection of business cards and email follow-up. How do you grow? Who do you seek to meet? Who is your best client? Who is your best referral source? How do you strain out the noise and find the right connections? The class will show the basics of networking, but how to dig deeper, find meaningful relationships, and how to connect with anyone. Networking is an art, and the best way to grow your brand, your business, and your reach.
