great, great list. i am always looking to offer and help people first – if they want to give back, then that is a bonus for me.

thanks!

Thanks – this is so refreshing and should be written on our foreheads as reminders. I re-tweeted it in Twitter to show my appreciation! Great post!

Thanks Tim. When you ask, it’s just one question for you but the other person might be getting a dozen other requests. And, it always costs less to ask then to fulfill what was asked.

Beth, thank you. Yes, larger and more diverse the network – better.

Best,
Rajesh

I agree with all these ideas and would like to add one more:

* Have a large enough network so that you are not continually tapping the same people for ideas/requests/inputs and so that you have a wide range of services and products to refer others to.

Great thoughts especially with a variety of networks. I think it is easy in a tough time to just ask, ask, ask, instead of giving. That can wear out a welcome fast. What are you giving away to your network?- That is something I try to ask myself often.
