I hear ya! I've worked with HUNDREDS of job seekers who had the same fears.

Yet deep down, they were willing to try something new...something that pushed them out of their comfort zone and challenged them... because they knew that applying online wasn't getting them the results they were looking for.

If they can do it, you can too!

The good news? This is 100% possible for you.

Networking isn't some rare gene inherited at birth. Networking is a skill, and you can absolutely sharpen it. With the right tools in hand, you can flex your networking muscle until it becomes second nature.

Learning the art of connection will serve you over and over again, and it will continue to open doors for you as you advance through your career journey.

RELATIONSHIP BUILDING IS THE KEY TO YOUR CAREER SUCCESS.

FROM SHY INTROVERT TO CONFIDENT NETWORKER

If you ask my parents and teachers to describe me growing up, you’d probably hear the words: timid, introverted, quiet, polite, nice.

I never raised my hand in class. I never shouted out answers even if I knew them. I was the wallflower at any social gathering. I observed extroverts with complete fascination and curiosity - secretly wishing that I could have an ounce of their courage.

Well, upon graduating from college in 2009, I told myself I’d be lucky if I could land any job during the recession.

Of course, the job that fell into my lap was a cold calling sales job… imagine calling 300+ people a DAY wondering how the heck did they get your number and why the heck would they want to sign up for a $60,000 Bachelor’s degree program from a university they never heard of!?

My first weeks were terrible. I wanted to hide and even quit… but even as a fresh grad I had heard over and over again, “If you want to be successful, you must learn how to build relationships.”

I was determined to learn and master this skill.

Within 6 months, I became recognized as the underdog to becoming a top performer out of 300 sales staff and even DOUBLED my salary within the first year.

I’m sharing this with you because getting comfortable talking to strangers, building rapport within the first 15 seconds of meeting someone, and getting your dream employers and colleagues to know, like, and trust you...  are 100% masterable!

Even if you’re convinced right now that networking and relationship building doesn’t come naturally to you.

If that isn’t enough to convince you, let me tell you what happened after I progressed my career into recruiting for Fortune 500 companies, top consulting firms, and startups.

I quickly saw that it wasn’t the people who had the best credentials, skills, experience, and qualifications that snagged the job opportunities...

Instead... it was the people who became visible through introductions.

“It’s not what you know or who you know… it’s who you can GET to know!”

When I was recruiting for Fortune 500 companies… hiring managers excitingly knocked on my door to say, “Emily! I got this amazing InMail from a candidate that looks interesting… how do we bring them in?”

Or I’d forward a resume to the hiring manager asking “Do you want to interview this person?” (Even though I never met this person, I just loved their proactive introduction to me!).

These people got interviews (vs. lost in the application pile) all because their resume made it directly in my inbox...even if they weren’t the most "qualified".

No matter your industry, experience level, career path, location…

You are one message and connection away from getting invited into interviews.

All you need is the right message to send to the right decision maker or influencer.

When you have the right message and right approach down, you can confidently flex your relationship building muscles… and you will get new opportunities beyond your wildest dreams.

Check out what two of our students shared below (despite being hesitant to network!):

No one taught us how to network… until now.

These messages are exactly why I  am so excited about the Ultimate Networking Playbook + Training Guide I’ve put together for you. 

I’m calling BS on everyone who has taught us networking is important, but no one has really taught us how!

Over the past decade, I’ve sifted through thousands of candidates who tried to ‘network’ their way into the companies. 99% of messages went unaddressed. Not because I didn’t like this person, but because their message wasn’t enticing.

That’s why I’ve spent the past 3 years cherry-picking the messages that got the best results and testing them. I’ve refined, tweaked, and tested what needs to be said and when and how and to whom.

It’s SO thrilling to hear from job seekers that hiring managers and recruiters and VPs of HR departments want to hop on interview calls... all because of a fill-in-the-blank message these jobseekers were able to easily customize and hit send on (without vomiting! :D).

These little tweaks and tricks yielded higher response rates, more interviews, and ultimately… more offers for job seekers who wanted to call it quits on their job search. 

I tested out the perfect timing in when to send follow-up messages.

I compiled the juiciest subject lines, most enticing hooks, and highest-yielding value-add statements. 

After coaching over 700 corporate professionals and guiding them to land their dream jobs, I’m finally affirming two little secrets to your job search success with 110% confidence…

#1: Networking is the most important factor in landing your dream job - no matter your industry or title… but especially if you’re making a career transition or getting targeted on dream employers.

#2: Networking is a skill everyone - including you - can learn and master!

Luckily, in the Ultimate Networking Playbook + Training Guide, you’ll be able to learn 10 years worth of trial & error in networking within 3 hours.
