I think you can not expect to make a good relationship/partnership/business with every contact. This is another place where you can find 1 you are looking for just as in other online places like forums or social networks. You search and will find. Don't have the feeling of being guilty because you can not be friend with every contact. This is the internet. :)
There are many 'reasons' people use this site. Not everyone uses it for the same reasons so its a process, finding those whose goals mesh with yours.. as for me, I don't use it for much of anything other than an occasional Update about what I've listed in my store.. Assuming these posts would be picked up in Google Feed! I guess I don't expect anything from anyone here, per Se, because I don't ask for anything either.
Good Luck in your endeavors!
You have allot to gain from connecting on here, most though connect to get you to join a program or the other, then if you are looking for an opportunity, yes you just might find the right one, more-so, people on here connect so they can share ideas and knowledge, its quite important that you ask a prospect first if they will like you share your program with them or not, interestingly some will appreciate you just by doing that, whereas some wont reply if you add a link in your first mail, meani
What do you hope to get from connecting? Have you shared your ideas on some things with which you are knowledgeable? In this way you would also get your connections sharing information with you.
You may also un-connect those who just spam you.
Share your business ideas and information which would help others develop into better entrepreneurs.
Hi Joe, very relevant question.....I expect INTERACTION (sadly missing), OPENNESS (not ignoring a good suggestion or offer) from members of APSENSE. From Network itself I expect a very good searching capability of database on demographic & business lines of interest, added advantage would be ability to send messages to them.
I like to provide quality over anything else. People are attracted to someone that provides something useful over someone that just spams their links. I expect nothing out of anyone on here.
@R. Weatherly... thanks for the post. Does that also mean you give nothing, seeing you expect nothing anyway?
@Ed Blount. ... good point and thanks for the comment. I am doing my best to make the best of them and a small group, very small... has become a little more than just a name on the list.
Well Joe too many people just connect to spam ! Like anything contacts are what you make of them, some people use this a place to connect elsewhere and develop relationships. Good question though !
