It is so important to give value to others. This is the most powerful secret to success. If you want to expand your business, progress in your career, monetize your work as an artist and creator, it is crucial to take others into consideration.
You have to make an excellent first impression and show deep knowledge in your area of expertise. Success is never attained if you only think about yourself. Treat people like you want to be treated. This is key.
The most successful people create and give value to others constantly. Give more than you ask in return. You offer useful advice, great service or product, inspiration, entertainment, and information.
If you give value to others, you build relationships and acquire customers for life. With value comes happiness and loyalty. Stay focused on adding value, the rest will follow.
When I was a medical officer (MO), working at a public hospital, it felt like no one really cares who I was. Often, I saw drug representatives linger around waiting for consultants, while some were friendly to MOs, most were not. I guess there is nothing odd about that - MOs had no power to purchase/endorse medicines/medical instruments. I was of NO value to them then.
Having said that, some were really nice. I still remember Connie from Abbot, Eunice from Sanofi and Chew from Mindray. They were genuinely friendly. We the MOs felt so comfortable with them. We understood their products and it didn't feel like they were just friends with us for marketing purposes only.
Things changed.
From someone that people ignored and "pandang sebelah mata", now I have been asked to see them so that they can pitch their products - I am now a value to them. The more I use their products, the more profit they will get.
I usually meet them once - see what they have to say and of course get to know about their products. Sometimes, if we made friends I will see them often.
You will get many benefits if you give value to others. People tend to give back what they get. At least you will get a positive relationship. Do not expect anything right away. It takes time to create meaningful relationships.
