And I think that people were getting those sorts of affirmations or kind of support of their decisions and their movements, without even realizing it, when we were in those office situations or studio situation. If you take the same kind of perspective, with networking, then, and reaching out on social media and that more one to one way, it becomes a lot less than intimidating, and it's a little less scary in terms of feeling rejected or ignored. And I think you know, one of the things that hold people back from doing this is that you know that insecurity the imposter syndrome rejection feeling of possibility of being rejected.And I think that with Coronavirus, because we are disconnected, that whole learning process of that comes from networking, right? Because it is a give and take, but just the things you learn from people, it just is so invaluable.It is not just self serving as a content producer, it is amplifying your message to a broader audience and, you know, creating a geometric progression of the value that you're putting out into the world.Businesses need people, they need people to buy for them, their products and services, but people don't buy from brands, people buy from people, people want to do business with people, the more you can humanize what you do, and to downscale what you do from brand to person, the better off you're going to be in terms of making connection.Guest LinksPhilip VanDusen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCd2J-PizcFDxWHBBfRkp38QPhilip's Website: https://philipvandusen.com/Learn More: Buy Digital Threads: https://nealschaffer.com/digitalthreadsamazon Buy Maximizing LinkedIn for Business Growth: https://nealschaffer.com/maximizinglinkedinamazon Join My Digital First Mastermind: https://nealschaffer.com/membership/ Learn about My Fractional CMO Consulting Services: https://nealschaffer.com/cmo Download My Free Ebooks Here: https://nealschaffer.com/books/ Subscribe to my YouTube Channel: https://youtube.com/nealschaffer All My Podcast Show Notes: https://podcast.nealschaffer.com
