Networking is the name of the game

This week I attended a networking event which was full of wine and cheese, can you go wrong with it? Never, and to top that there were chocolates too...

All evening I was sipping on my favorite wine Moscato d'asti and enjoying Brie with crackers. The amazing part of this event was that the team that was hosting the wine part of the event met few years back at a similar event and came up with this idea.

Brilliant isn't it? I mean could you imagine, meeting a like minded person in these casual networking events and that leads to your own million dollar business. I got a chance to rendezvous with these entrepreneurs and learned how crucial networking is. They said they were discussing how one can make networking event more fun and then one thing led to another. One of the entrepreneur was a Sommelier and the other was a Oenophilist. They started pairing up with chocolate and cheese connoisseurs to host more networking events.

This helped them to grow their business and today they are one of the top wine party host in fairfield county. Isn't this amazing!!!!

Do you have any life changing experience through networking that you want to share with other readers?
