  • #186: 4 Rules of Networking
    May 7 2025
    In this energetic episode, Nomad takes listeners on a ride to a non-music event, demonstrating firsthand the power of his four essential rules for building meaningful relationships and standing out as a musician. Key Takeaways: Rule #1: Get Up, Dress Up, Show Up Nomad emphasizes the importance of physically showing up to events, even when you’re not explicitly required to attend. Commitment and presence are key. Rule #2: Choose Non-Music Related Events Attending events outside of the music industry allows musicians to stand out and reduce competition, creating more networking opportunities. Rule #3: The Icebreaker Technique Use these six powerful words: “What's going on with you?” Then, focus on actively listening. People enjoy sharing their stories, and genuine listening builds strong connections. Rule #4: The Three-Foot Rule Always engage in conversation with anyone within three feet of you. Break down barriers and preconceived notions by initiating dialogue with everyone around you, regardless of their role or demeanor. Episode Highlights:Nomad shares personal anecdotes and practical networking techniques, transforming the often-dreaded idea of "networking" into authentic "relationship building." Tips on being organized with networking tools such as business cards, QR codes, and promotional guitar picks. Real-time interactions illustrating how simple it can be to start a conversation and build relationships naturally. Insight into maintaining a friendly demeanor, using smiles and positive body language to attract and engage others effectively. Featured Interaction:Nomad demonstrates a spontaneous interaction with Jordan from SCV Cards, highlighting the ease of initiating conversations and creating immediate connections. Memorable Quotes: “People love talking about themselves—use it to your advantage.” “Networking isn't a dirty word; it’s relationship building.” “Within three feet? Say hello!” Practical Tools Mentioned: Business cards with QR codes Customized guitar picks for networking Call to Action: Challenge yourself this week to apply these four rules. Pick a non-music event, get organized, and commit to genuinely connecting with others.
