Scaling Business Through Strategic Networking and High-Level Connections at The Summit

The opportunity is endless. You can't take more than four or five steps before meeting somebody who you can network with and who you can collaborate for the next year, to five years, to ten years. And every single time they post the schedule there's always really great speakers and really good sessions that you can apply to your business practice and help you scale. My name is Kaitlin Rowland and I am the director of marketing for DHA LAB and I live in Scottsdale, Arizona. You know, for me it's not so much about influence as it has been about the networking opportunities. We recently just found out in my business that a lead researcher in the field of mental and emotional conditions is releasing a book on bipolar disorder and because I've been to Mindshare three years now, I know exactly the right people to go talk to. I'm going to find the best publisher in the US. I'm going to make the connections I can so that we can have a best-selling book. So many Mindshare members have done just that because the right people are at this event. A couple years ago, I think his name was Gavin Gunderson, said that, mental capital x relationship capital = financial capital and that changed the way I looked at my business. That's exactly why I come to The Summit every single year because it is about who you know and it's about how you apply who you know and how you're using your skills and tools to apply to your business. The connections you can make at The Summit are so diverse, even if you don't know what you need and what you're looking for. I come here for business development and attending certain lectures and I always gather so much more about something I didn't even know I was going to learn about or connecting with a leader in the field - over here at biochemistry and over here for book publishing and then over here for women's health. You're so well connected that no matter what you need for the remainder of the year and then in years to come, you can rely on what you've learned at The Summit and who you've met.
