On new year's eve, I decided to make a resolution I could keep. I would contact 5 new people a day. After about 5 minutes I decided that would be VERY difficult to manage, as I exhausted my contacts - to get me much past January, thanks for Dunbar's Number.
So, I decided I'll contact one person - that bought me some time ( 5 people/day for a week was 35 people - at one person/day, I'd buy a whole month ). Great, but why the heck would these people want to talk to me? Well, maybe if I could do something for them - and not in the "here's what my business will do for you" sort of way. I will try to help them, and barring that, I will find someone who can help them with a need.
Now, I've gotten quite a few "Find me a job" sort of needs - and I'm ok with that. I've gotten "Cash would be nice" - and I think it would be nice too. I'm looking for solid needs.
Do you need someone to work at your company? Do you need a specific kind of job or work or contract? Do you need leads for a certain product? Do you need a product?
So, I'm matching needs - but *I* need to contact people and find out what they need, and what they provide ... so why no email me, and we'll talk.
I'll post "anonymized" versions of needs here to help bring in people searching for stuff as well.
