5 Have you ever thought you had a good thing going with someone you met and invested time getting to know in your network, only to find that referrals never came or dried up quickly without explanation?
6 When you meet someone for the first time, do you truly make every effort to be interested instead of interesting? Really?
7 When speaking to your best referral sources, do they understand what you want them to understand about what a good referral looks like for you in your business in the current economic climate?
8 There’s no chance you might be confusing networking with selling?
9 Do you know how to work out the lifetime value of a referred customer?
10 Have you ever struggled to break the ice at networking events or felt uncomfortable walking into a room full of strangers?
11 Have you ever left a one-to-one meeting with a network contact with every intention of taking things further, only for the momentum to be lost and eventually you realize you have both wasted your time?
12 Have you ever left a one-to-one, none-the-wiser about who you are dealing with and no clear next steps for how you will refer them?
13 Have you ever left a one-to-one only to realize that the other person has no idea what you do or how to refer you well?

17 Do you know what you need to do to stand out among the noise of everyone else’s 60-second commercial?
18 Do you know why your 60-second commercial isn’t causing people to rush up to you after an event and engage either directly or on behalf of someone they know well to make an introduction?
19 Is your networking based on busy random activity with little or no structure and referrals are usually a surprise and unplanned when they do occasionally happen?
20 Do you ever fail to follow up when you said that you would?
21 If someone kindly gives you a referral but it’s not right, are you uncomfortable speaking to your referrer and asking them to adjust their referrals in the future?
