The interview

What is unique about the leadership at H7 Network?

Clay has the craziest, unique superpower to have people champion the community. It is a community-run business, and when you have your community running it, you know that you are on top of what people need and that people actually are vested and care.

How did H7 Network impact your business growth?

When I went to grow my business a couple of years ago and really expand to be in front of more entrepreneurs, it was the community to which I contributed most of my time. It was huge for my business because it allowed me to grow not only my agency but my own business club.

Can you quantify the business impact H7 Network had on your agency?

It might've been three years ago, I don't know when, but it literally allowed me to develop an entire new revenue stream for my agency. It would have been very difficult not to do it without the support of Clay and H7, quite frankly, in that community.

What do you think of the 'Connect, Serve, and Ask' methodology?

The formula that Clay puts out there is unique and very, very powerful. You want to be able to connect with people on a deep level and show up as their champion. When you're their champion, you have the right to actually ask them for great connections and referrals.

Why do you recommend H7 Network to your own club members?

I send my club members there every day because I know they have to get out there and network with real people. If you're jumping out there going, 'hey, I really wanna grow a business and I don't wanna do it by myself,' H7 is so amazing.
