re: Networking 101 |

Dear Donna,
Thank you for your excellent suggestions. Although some of them have been heard before, they are always welcome as a reminder.
Your message has prompted me to ask something I have never seeing clarified in all the networks I belong to:
Is it so positive to network with family and friends?
I know the answer about the other question: is it positive to network with acquaintances and strangers? Yes, yes, yes.
In my experience, it has been more difficult to do it with family and friends and when I have done it, it has been to my prejudice. They have tried to get as much advantages as possible from me (works, contacts, money, etc.) but when I have tried for them to reciprocate I have normally suffered a disillusioned.
Have you or any of you suffered something similar?
Thank you for enlightening me.
Kind regards,
