What you can accomplish when you know the right people is amazing. Quick example: Prior to working for myself, I beat out over 40 candidates in two different jobs. Not because I had stellar credentials, but because I knew someone in the company who was trusted by the hiring manager. I don't know that it was fair, but it's how the world works.

I cannot count the number of times I have been casually talking to someone, and then the discussion turns into, "oh, so what do you do?" Then I mention I creat websites for small businesses and BAMN! A new contact and a potential client. Thanks for the great article. I agree that one has to be ready to network at all times.
