1.
How did I get started with the idea/concept
-- There
was one period early this year that I received [an
avalanche of] requests for help. By both contacts and
"strangers".
These requests ran a gamut from introductions to
contacts based in China; job opportunities in
Singapore. To one on donations and voluntary assistance
for a tsunami-hit village in Sri Lanka.
Some I could not possibly do so alone nor have the
resources. Besides, I have a vast and huge variety of
contacts whose potential lies untapped. Surely, they and
even their own networks have the resources that mine are
seeking.
2. Purpose of doing what I do
--
Let's say I have a quirky
bordering-on-the-obsessive need to help people. It is in
my name too that I strive to keep up with.
Seriously, it is a good excuse to keep in touch with
all, if not some of my network. I can safely say that a
handful had -- and still have -- no inkling that I even
exist. Until they received their first copy of THE
NetWorking e-Zine.
3.
How do I find and choose the people that I feature
--
They just so happen to be interesting folks with
interesting professions and/or hobbies/concepts. Who
happen to need some sort of help and publicity for their
businesses or hobbies. Which I am confident would
stimulate some sort of interest in my network.
Furthermore, they come from a variety of backgrounds
that make readers anticipate. Like, "Okay, so who is
wotshername going to feature next?" |

Ange's Newsletter:
Dear All:
I am pleased to showcase this month’s
issue of
THE NetWorking e-Zine
[TNe].
This is no ordinary e-zine. Each Monthly
showcases a contact’s
industry and/or expertise. Resulting in greater
exposure and FREE publicity. Offering
us all a glimpse into their industry, creating
awareness as a result.
The
TNe
is distributed to all of my first-degree contacts,
both offline and online. Thus, I would be most
grateful if you could forward the
TNe
to your network. If you believe it has some value to
them. I attach both the slideshow [.pps] and .pdf
versions. Just in case you cannot open the former.
If you no longer wish to receive the
TNe,
please email me with the subject
“Thanks,
but no thanks”. Last
but not least, I look very much forward to hearing
from and collaborating with you.
Happy Reading and warmest wishes
Ange Teo
