347 - Best Networking and Sales Strategies for 2024 with Trevor Houston

I'm excited to bring you a new friend and a super connector today on the show who is going to talk about how to network, stand out from the crowd and build resilience in your career and finances whether you are in corporate or an entrepreneur. 

I got introduced to Trevor recently by a mutual friend, Amberly Lago, who has been on the show before, and she said you have to meet Trevor and connect with him. 

Trevor has built a huge media presence as the host of the "Who Ya Know Show", and has interviewed people like Grant and Elena Cardone, Tim Story, Heather Monahan, who is a former client of mine and has also been a guest on this show, and more. Trevor is also the CEO of ClearPath Wealth Strategies and has been recognized as a top 50 entrepreneur to watch according to Grit Daily. 

There's a phrase that I have seen come true in  my life over and over again, which is "grace opens doors that hard work never could."  I think about the biggest moments of my career and life, those moments where it felt like pure grace where something came together or an opportunity happened that I never could have dreamed of, and it was always based on pure grace - but that grace was often spawned by some sort of connection I had who helped me in ways I never could have accomplished with pure hard work. 

So the power of connections, building your brand and resilience is critical whether you're in corporate America or an entrepreneur, and Trevor is going to help us dive deeper into those areas in this episode.
