In Part 9 of the Who or What Series, on the only Business Networking Podcast on iTunes, Hither Mann from Fortune Academy, Joel Brown from AddictedtoSuccess.com, and Dan Fleyshman, the youngest founder of a public company in history talk to your host Travis Chappell about the ongoing debate of whether who you know or what you know is more important, and why.Episode Highlights: Hither Mann – Hither is a multi-million dollar real estate and forex investor out of London. – Networking is about building relationships – you’re only annoying if you’re not genuine. – People treat networking like it’s door to door sales, but that’s not how relationship building is. – Always know what you want before you enter, know the end goal first.Joel Brown – The first level of learning is knowledge, the second it understanding, the third is wisdom which is gained through application. – Joel would double down on great relationships if he had to choose one, but growing his knowledge was also critically important. – There’s a difference between an informational coach and a transformational coach.Dan Fleyshman – Speaker, angel investor, and youngest founder of a publicly traded company in history. – Who you know is most important, and it’s not even close. – You don’t need to know what what every expert knows, you need to know the people who can leverage their knowledge. – Dan talks about a time when a connection led to a moment of success. – The number one most important practice that has allowed Dan to build relationships. – Dan adds value on a massive scale and when he does ask for something he’s very direct.3 Key Points: 1. Don’t focus on the money, focus on the relationship. 2. To learn you need knowledge, understanding, and wisdom. 3. It’s not what you know, it’s what they know – you skip the line by knowing people who have already done what you want to do.Tweetable Quotes: – “The basis of your success is who you know.” -Hither – “You get paid based off of how much conflict you can face and break through.” -Joel – “I fast-forwarded 27 years of experience by knowing the people who already know it all.” -Dan – “People can’t buy access, cool, or information.” -DanResources Mentioned: – Visit Travis’ website at Buildyournetwork.co – Learn more about mentorships and masterminds for FREE at freemmcourse.com/enroll – Download Meet Your Hero at travischappell.com/hero – Explode Your Network at travischappell.com/explode – Go to Rothys.com/Travis to check out comfortable, sustainable shoes.
