I would never have given much thought to Networking in a work from home business until I had a chance conversation with someone yesterday. I'll call the other person Jo to protect her identity.
Jo mentioed she was attending a networking event for a couple of days and saw this as an essential part of building her business.
Even though I work from home, I have more than enough work contacts not to resort to networking so that is why I have never been to a networking event, but what about you?
If you have a work from home business, have you ever considered what a networking event could do for your bottom line? Maybe you should...

Work From Home In The Snow
The recent snow il the UK serves as a reminder about the hidden benefits when you work from home.
Not only have I managed to avoid the increased petrol and diesel prices of the last 12 months, I also didn't have to defrost my car and drive on icy roads like some of my neighbors who don't work from home.
In fact, as I write this while taking a break from some of my other work at home deadlines, I can still see snow falling while I sit inside by the fire with a cup of coffee and work on my computer.
Right now, the worst thing that can happen to me is if I lose my internet connection. That's a downside when you work from home, but I have some work planned that I can do offline, so either way, I'll get work done.
But what if the snow brings the power cables down? Don't worry, because I have 3 laptops charged ready to go, so I'll be able to work from home no matter what.
If you are stuck in a dead end job, or driving in the snow, isn't it time you started planning your work from home business?
