B2B Networking Award winners

My Pinnacle Network, the B2B networking group with monthly meetings in Braintree, Mansfield, Marshfield, Needham, Plymouth and Westborough, MA, recently announced the winners of its fourth annual Networking Ninja Awards. The newly minted Networking Ninja Awards were created to recognize the region’s best networkers in four separate categories: Best Connector (helping bring people together); Most Ubiquitous (appears to be at every networking event); Most Altruistic (does most for others); and Brightest Beacon (adds energy to networking events).

Carmella Beroth, of Debt Management, Inc. in Mansfield, MA, took home the honors as Best Connector. She is a member of My Pinnacle Network-Mansfield.

Sheldon Prenovitz of Concord, MA-based ConnectPay won the Most Ubiquitous Networking Ninja Award. He is a member of My Pinnacle Network-Westborough.

Brian MacFee of System Support in Marshfield, MA won the Brightest Beacon honors. He is a member of My Pinnacle Network-Braintree Third Thursday and My Pinnacle Network-Marshfield.

Lois Drukman of Walter May Insurance in Hingham, MA won the Most Altruistic Networking Ninja Award. She is a member of My Pinnacle Network-Marshfield and My Pinnacle Network-Plymouth. She is also one of the owners of South Shore Networking Professionals, which hosted the awards ceremony at its regular third Tuesday event at the Cask & Flagon Restaurant in Marshfield, MA.

An additional award was given this year to My Pinnacle Network Partner Joe D’Eramo. My Pinnacle Network Founder Steve Dubin awarded the “Unsung Hero” trophy for his behind-the-scenes work. He also noted his work writing and publishing My Pinnacle Network’s book, 15 Keep-it-Simple Tips for B2B Networkers, available at www.mypinnaclenetwork.com.

“Congratulations to all the winners. We had a number of networkers nominated for these awards and these individuals stood out as the cream of the crop in our region,” said Steve Dubin, founder of My Pinnacle Network. “Each of these winners has proven themselves to be first-rate connectors who are givers first, which is how they ultimately receive referrals for their respective businesses.”

Voting for the Networking Ninja Awards took place from January 1 through February 28 on the My Pinnacle Network website, www.mypinnaclenetwork.com. Other members of the B2B networking organization nominated for awards include: David DeBlasio of Deblasio Marketing located in Dedham, MA and My Pinnacle Network-Mansfield; Calvin Nelson of CCNIII of Stoughton, MA; Alex Bungener of Digital+ in Cotuit, MA and My Pinnacle Network-Marshfield; Jim Hickox of Apple Corps Cleaning in Weymouth, MA and My Pinnacle Network-Braintree Third Thursday; Jay Nuss of Jay Nuss Realty of Braintree, MA and My Pinnacle Network-Braintree Third Thursday; Richard Archibald of Aflac and My Pinnacle Network-Marshfield; Dave Gilman of Cognito Creative and My Pinnacle Network-Westborough; and David Allen of Balance Wealth Advisors in Wellesley, MA and My Pinnacle Network-Needham/Newton and My Pinnacle Network-Westborough.

“Networking, sharing information and opportunity, is what makes the world go round,” noted Dubin. “Both whimsical and pragmatic, the Networking Ninja Awards provide recognition for many who typically do great deeds and humbly hang in the shadows.”

For information about My Pinnacle Network’s B2B networking groups, please visit www.MyPinnacleNetwork.com, or contact Steven V. Dubin at SDubin@MyPinnacleNetwork.com or 781-582-1061.

How introverts can be good networkers

Does this guy seem introverted?

Having run networking meetings for quite some time, we often hear people describe better networkers as “born networkers”. That could be true. Some people are blessed with the gift of gab while starting and sustaining a conversation can be a real chore for some. Yet that doesn’t exclude introverts from being good networkers. It just means you may need to take a different path.

Take My Pinnacle Network Founder Steve Dubin. Please. Seriously though, Steve thinks of himself as an introvert. If you have met him, this may surprise you a little. Yet Steve learned how to overcome his shyness in networking situations by using skills he developed as reporter. Namely, asking questions.

When Steve meets people at a networking event, he reverts to a list of questions he has memorized. The questions are a little less cliché than “what’s your business?”. Typically, it’s about the event or something of the sort. Since many people are more comfortable answering a question rather than starting a conversation, guess what? A conversation ensues.

This technique often gives Steve the opportunity to learn more about the people he meets. This in turn makes it easier for him to connect the people he meets with people in his network. And we all know that giving is the key to receiving in networking.

Okay, so maybe you’re not a former reporter. It doesn’t prevent you from creating a list of questions to have for when you go to events. Fortunately, networking is much more about what happens outside networking events. And that’s where introverts can be very successful if you choose to be.

How?

Ask any great networker what the key to networking success is and most will say it’s follow up. Much of follow up today can be done online. So, if you meet somebody at a networking event, be sure to follow up afterwards with a little note via e-mail. Better yet, check out their LinkedIn profile and connect.

If this contact is somebody you want to get to know better, set up a one-on-one. If you’re not sure, perhaps you start a virtual dialogue that includes some additional questions. Like who in your network would they like to meet? Conversely, you could ask if they know anybody in an area that’s of interest to your business.

This is but one way for introverts to break out of their shell and get into the networking game. Check out our ebook, 15 Keep-it-Simple Tips for B2B Networkers, for more pointers.
