Olympia Group, Inc. Team Enjoys Networking Event And Boat Cruise

SAN ANTONIO - Sept. 12, 2014 - PRLog -- Olympia Group, Inc. seeks the best networking opportunities for team members and opened one up for high-achieving workers this past month. Associates with potential to move into management positions were treated by the company to a boat cruise from Orange County, California. The cruise offered opportunities to mingle and meet the top people within the industry, including one Fortune 500 CEO.

Olympia Group, Inc. Increases Motivation Within the Team
Director of operations, Josh, wanted the potential managers to feel inspired by the success of others. "Networking works best when we get away from social media and make face-to-face connections," he explained. "Just as in marketing, meeting people in person proves more effective than simply communicating online. There is an instant dialog that builds professional relationships that create opportunities."

Josh elaborated on other aspects of networking that leads to its success: "We need to be in the right place at the right time and ask the right questions of our contacts. Before we left, I helped associates research the high-profile attendees of this cruise so they entered this opportunity with a basis for good conversation. You cannot make good connections without knowledge of people. Besides, sometimes networking and meeting new people can be a little awkward. Having some topics prepared ahead of time makes it easier."

One interaction included meeting a Fortune 500 CEO and touring his two homes—each worth $10 million dollars. "Seeing the fruits of another's success is exciting and encouraging," stated Josh. "Plus, we all had the opportunity to mingle with this individual in his home environment. Not very many people can claim meeting a Fortune 500 CEO, much less enjoy a chance to visit his home!"

Since the cruise consisted of attendees who could be potential clients for Olympia Group, Inc., Josh also emphasized follow-up contacts: "It is not enough to meet people in the relaxing environment of a cruise I also reminded associates that when they receive a favorable response to their pitch, not forget to follow-up. You must keep professional relationships moving forward!"

Commenting on who was asked to attend, "We chose people based on their promotion potential, knowing that they would make great use of this networking opportunity," Josh explained. "Not only did our associates have a great time on a cruise and seeing those beautiful homes, but we believe the new contacts will prove very profitable for this firm too!"
