About this title

Review:

The first time I met Jan Vermeiren, I was charmed by his sincerity & drive to help people to network. Jan's vision is that networking is not about accumulating power or creating self-importance, but about helping each other by sharing, learning & supporting. Jan reveals tips & to do's that are very interesting to read for everyone.

Originally focused on marketing coaching, due to interest from the market the company is evolved to everything that has to do with (human) networking.

On February 1st 2006 his first book about networking, Let's Connect!, was published. It is a book about how to improve your networking on events and on the Internet, whether you are in sales or not.
