It's about who you know

25 Comment

The age old truism ‘is not what you know but, who you know’ has been especially true for me the last couple of days. I scored a part time job through friends and was seeking cost price products for a group I volunteer for but, was able to secure these for free through the people I knew. It’s all about who you know sometimes….

Well done on getting your tones for free. It is all about who you know particularly in small towns

I totally agree with that statement although it is not just knowing people it is also having a good relationship with them

Sometimes it can help with getting your foot in the door, but then you do have to shine! 🙂
