If you are putting out a vibration into a network that says Im a network and Im here to help you, a lot of people will connect with you and therefore you will have a large network.

You can always trust Penny to say what she genuinely believes.
Good advice. I have checked a few of her videos and find them very interesting.
No way…quality vs quantity isn’t tough. If what you’re selling isn’t quality, you won’t need large qualities.
Penny has some great advise; check out her other videos also.
I agree with businessadvise; I would say that it would come done to individual requirements.
Some great advice in this video.
quantity vs quality… always a tough one that.
Really good ideas that people need to consider when networking.
It really is about finding the right balance, a tough one
The question is always what is the value in the data and how do you measure it?
Such an interesting question. For me personally a small network suits – but a high volume is super useful.
i was also intrigued by the credibility point re followers…. I need to address that!
