Want To Run Your Own Business? Scientific Evidence Say You’d Better Get Networking!

Beaker says if you're an entrepreneur, you'd better network!

Just time for a quickie today. I hope you still respect me in the morning.

From the archives of the Business Pundit Blog, here’s some scientific evidence that networking helps entrepreneurs survive all of the ups and downs of business.

A very interesting section of this report states:

The findings suggest that small-firm survivors talk not among themselves but prefer to talk to larger firms. In addition, larger non-survivors talk too much among themselves. The authors observed grouping by communication networks into a group of larger survivors and larger non-survivors. They determined that informal grouping in a “club of winners” and a “club of losers” is done well before the winners and the losers are known. These results may lend themselves to predict future winners.

So, take a look around at the people you’re hanging out with. Are they, on average, succeeding or failing? Chances are that you’ll do the same.
