I’ve had a busy few weeks networking. Last night, I returned home from something like my tenth networking event this month. It made me realize that networking is extremely important for entrepreneurs.

So the next time you think a networking event is probably going to be a waste of time, here are a few reasons why you should put down your tools for the day and head out to meet new people.

It’s All About the Connections:

You’ve heard the phrase, “It’s not what you know, it’s WHO you know.” It’s true. If you want to be a successful entrepreneur, knowledge alone just isn’t going to cut it. You will also need to know the "right people".

You Learn New Things:

No entrepreneur has gone on to be a rip-roaring success on the back of their own knowledge alone. We all need a helping hand, which is why there is such a big fuss being made about mentors.
