Always offer a genuine advice / information. Providing social media proofs helps. also you can create opportunities for collaborations. Always be ready on to support n help.

Networking becomes most viable in those settings where you or your product is a newbee, & wherein much less is known about your brand in the operating geography. Therefore a feedback/opinion/word of mouth from a party already known to the buyer assumes significance. These influencing individuals are then able to impact the say of your target clients as they already possess the rapport and necessary trust of the buyers. It's your network that acts on your behalf in the market and shapes the presence of you or your brand even when you are not actively marketing. Hence influencing the business decisions on a much larger scale.

La confianza debe de ser algo mutuo y esto es la base, sin confianza mutua la relación que se forma no es tan fuerte y la comunicación no fluye de la misma manera.

Es fundamental la construcción de confianza, interés e interrelacionarse con la red porque de lo contrario el interés y la confianza se irán perdiendo

Honor your commitments and follow through on your promises. Be punctual, reliable, and dependable in your actions and words. Consistently delivering on your commitments builds trust and credibility with others over time.

One of the best ways I've learned to build rapport is to follow through on commitments and to overperform on expectations. I often set a deadline out (depending on the project) two days to a week longer than I need. That gives me a little breathing room if an emergency happens or if new information becomes available. If I am able to complete a project earlier, it builds trust further. I also find that demonstrating interest in others' projects—even if they don't directly affect you—helps build skills. This broadens your horizons, allowing those who may want help to seek your expertise or skills that they need to develop. That ultimately grows your network further and reinforces great work-life bonds.

En primer lugar, cultivando relaciones sólidas con mi red. Mantener el contacto regularmente, brindar apoyo cuando sea necesario y ofrecer ayuda cuando se solicite. Es imprescindible escuchar, escuchar y escuchar. Entender las necesidades, intereses y objetivos de nuestra red. Así, nuestro apoyo, ayuda o recursos que le podamos ofrecer serán relevantes y valiosos para ellos.

Además de personalizar el mensaje hay que tener empatía y entender las necesidades del resto para conocer sus metas, esto también ayuda a tener un mensaje mucho más personalizado.

Clearly articulate the benefits and relevance of your message to your audience. Emphasize how your message addresses their needs, solves their problems, or helps them achieve their goals. Focus on the value proposition and outcomes that matter most to them.

Mensajes distintos para Target diferentes cuidando que el concepto principal no se pierda y mantenga la información que deseo dar en la comunicación

Es importante poder conocer el público objetivo, no en todas las situaciones nos podemos referir a todos como un igual, al conocer que todas las personas son un mundo completamente distinto debemos evitar el "conquistar" sus mentes, nos debemos al, conectar con ellas, y con nuestro mensaje poder hacer parte de este a la audiencia.

Display social proof widgets, badges, or seals on your website or marketing materials to showcase endorsements, certifications, or affiliations with reputable organizations or industry partners. These visual cues reinforce trust and credibility with your audience.

I think online social proof is great, now people are using their personal brand to become associated with an industry they are in and in turn showing social proof For me, LinkedIn is a great social media channel where I can share my own thoughts about insurance and my own development. Just using LinkedIn alone I can: Share industry-specific content to build expertise Engaging with other insurance professionals and brands Staying connected to industry trends and developments Reinforcing your brand's association with the insurance sector

Be proactive in offering assistance, guidance, or support to others without expecting immediate reciprocation. Whether it's providing advice, sharing resources, or lending a helping hand, demonstrating genuine kindness and generosity fosters goodwill and trust in relationships.

Offer support, encouragement, and validation to individuals in your network during both good times and challenging moments. Celebrate their achievements, milestones, and successes, and provide empathy, guidance, and reassurance during difficult times.

One possible way to obtain credibility is to obtain or even create awards. Obtaining rewards is akin to receiving credentials; whereas creating or giving rewards is akin to claiming you're good enough to be an accrediting body.

Collaborate with others on projects or initiatives within the network. Co-creating values can strengthen relationships and influence. Authenticity fosters trust and helps you connect with others on a deeper level. Be genuine in your interactions and communication. Consistency in your actions, communication, and behavior helps build trust and credibility over time.

To build an influence you need authority. And to build that authority you need to be consistent at what you want to teach. I believe you need to be as candid and authentic as possible. Influence cannot be built by being like someone else or following their path. You can surely get inspired, but not imitate. Be open to being vulnerable and seeking feedback (and then acting upon it)
