Hey, this is Jim. Welcome back to Silent Sales Machine Radio. The topic today is going to be

attending live events. We talk all the time on the show about the importance of relationships

and the importance of making connections if you want to grow your business, getting out there,

meeting people, shaking their hands, looking at them in the eye, going to lunch, that sort of thing.

Even though we are internet-based business-building warriors, if you listen to this program

and you apply timeless truths for success in life and business, you've heard us say several times, the number of

people that you get to know, the number of contacts and connections you make is directly tied

to the success you're going to have in business. It doesn't matter what the business is. We're not

the exception to the rule just because our businesses exist on the

internet. So to emphasize that point, today I'm going to talk a little bit about attending

live events, specifically and unashamedly, I'm going to talk quite a bit about our event

that's coming up July 21st through 23rd of the year 2020. That is

the provenconference.com. For those of you who listen to these podcast episodes the day or

within a few days of them coming out, you're very smart because you're going to hear content

that's relevant quite often for the short

period of time in which it's discussed. Now most of our content, like we say all the time,

is evergreen, meaning you can go back a year or two and listen to programs. And if you haven't

done that, if you're a new listener, you really should go back and listen to all the episodes of this show. It's fascinating to see the journeys of some of the

sellers that we go back and interview a second time and see where their business is, see the

stories of early success of so much of what we've done around here as our community has grown

and our business has

grown, and there's great evergreen lessons. But a lot of the content is going to be timely
