If you want to be discovered through competition, then you must ask yourself “How do you network? If nothing comes to mind then you’re in deep doo doo. People used to say “It’s not what you know but who you know. That is an old cliche’. In many circumstances, it’s exactly what you know that can give you an edge over your competition.
