Reflection:
This experience has helped me realize that deep research is
needed in order to get a good idea of needs to be done to have a successful business.
this leads me to seek out those that will fit my opportunity best and in future
networking events and how to approach them with confidence and a clear point to
make. This did differ from my past experiences because it was all done through
the internet because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Hello Austin,
ReplyDeleteIt is a true shame that none of your experts responded to you at all. However, it could be helpful just to search for these individuals and learn from their success and models. It will also be a resource for you in the future as you could use their input if they get back to you in the coming months. While you did not get to converse with these individuals i see that you did learn how to find individuals who will best meet the need of your business and I am sure that can be done again.

Hey Austin,
ReplyDeleteAlthough you didn't receive any responses from potential experts in your field, you were at least able to find the means to target them. In my eyes, that's what's truly important since reaching out and shooting your shot is what will eventually create connections with people. You were able to isolate people that you would need in each individual department of your company which stills shows promise since you would likely have gotten responses had the world been in a more normal setting. Good job overall.

Hey Austin,
ReplyDeleteI can relate in the aspect that one of my experts did not reply in time for the assignment, but like the others have mentioned, it is good that you alone can identify the experts in your field. Hopefully when they reach out you will be able to decide if you would like to take in their information as beneficial to your cause or if you would rather refer to other people.
All the best,
Luis
