Tweetable Quotes:

“You really got to have that external network, not only for getting business, but also for keeping your ideas fresh and being motivated and having a peer group that can support you.” - Heidi Pozzo

“If you have a strong network, the marketing isn't as important. I think a lot of people will spend a lot of time on a name of a business, but it's really you as a person. That is what people are looking at. Your name is your brand at the beginning.” - Heidi Pozzo

“If you don't have a strong external network, you need somebody who has a recognized brand in the market that you want to serve. If you want to make a leap from corporate to consulting right away and you don't have the network, the firm's probably the best way to go.” - Heidi Pozzo
