If I'm not networking, I'm not working. I am a restaurant consultant and I am always looking to connect the right vendor with the right client. When I am not doing that, I am looking for client's and referral partners that will both strengthen my skills and company as well as provide potential value to my client's later on.

However, we must build a foundation of trust amongst us prior to working together. Without trust, you cannot build relationships that will lead to referrals that will result in business.
