In general, people have long been ignorant of the practice of following-up, even while this highly important phenomenon is part of our everyday life. Oddly still, our very nature seems to prefer to ignore its usefulness. Whether you have promised a client, customer or supplier something or promised your partner a romantic dinner four weeks ago, the role of following up must not be underestimated. If neglected, you could end up earning a reputation as unprofessional or be bashed by your partner.
On the other hand, if you are impeccable with following up on your commitments, you will find yourself heading towards a successful career.
I fully admit to the utter truth in the saying, "it’s not what you know, it’s who you know that counts." Well, mostly. Before you slash your wrists because you think you don’t know enough people to find work, let me assure you it’s never too late to start what they call, "your network."
"Network" is just a fancy word for people you know and to whom you are connected. People who follow you on Twitter are "in your network." On LinkedIn, they list a number of people "in your network," even though you are not first level connections. Are these people important to you? Of course! They at least have some level of connection to you – more than strangers on the street.
