Being Persistent

Hi Adrian,

Thanks for some nice healthy persistence. Yes, I’m definitely game to meet.

I received this in an email this morning. The email was replying to my 4th (yes that’s four!) attempts to make contact.

Being persistent means that you “might” ultimately get what you want.

Giving up means that you will definitely not get anything.

Remember, you can’t lose what you don’t have.

So, be persistent. Attempt to make contact with people that you think can be valuable to you…and you to them.

Show value by offering up the three I’s (information, invitations, introductions) and don’t give up easily. You want to see ROT (return on time) and you can only do that by being, yes, persistent.
