Reach out to someone in your business community and offer to take them to lunch. We are experiential beings, and if you only rely on electronic links to build a network, you will never have the type of meaningful interactions that will lead you to the success you desire.
Most people are open to the idea of meeting you for lunch (or coffee) to get to know you better. Sure, maybe you cannot reach the CEO of a Fortune 500 company, but most professionals do not live in ivory towers. Most people are cool, and they have to eat lunch at some point.
If you are not initiating one or two lunch meetings a week you are missing out on creating relationships that can impact your life.
