Tips to Cultivate Your Cannabis Network
Are you ready for the new opportunities that the cannabis industry will bring?
What is Your Cannabis Network (YCN)?
Your cannabis network is a group of contacts you can rely on for support and opportunities in the cannabis field.
Why Does Cannabis Network Matter?
Your cannabis network is valuable because it connects you with people who can open doors to new opportunities and help solve problems. They might point you towards new jobs or ventures you hadn’t considered. A strong network means you’re not alone in achieving your goals in the cannabis industry.
How to Build Your Network: 3 Tips
Building your network takes consistency and effort. Here’s how to do it:
Shake Hands and Show Up
There are many cannabis events every month. Go to them! Introduce yourself to people, use a firm handshake, and make eye contact. This simple action can make a big impression.
Give More Than What You Get
In any relationship, it’s important to contribute. To expand your network, try to give more than you receive. This builds your reputation as someone who adds value. Soon, people you’ve helped will start introducing you to others, and your reputation will grow even when you’re not around.
Be Authentic
Just be yourself. Pretending to be something you’re not can make you seem untrustworthy. It’s okay not to know everything about cannabis. Being honest and genuine in your interactions will attract more people to your network.
Building a network takes time, but by being present, contributing, and being genuine, you’ll develop a strong cannabis network.
Remember, building a strong network is key to your success in the cannabis industry.
