<p>Our anticipated Crunch Lunch event will be over before you know it. Get there by noon to get a seat. Grab lunch at the Novell Cafeteria.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Day: TODAY, December 4th<br />
Time: Noon to 1:30 p.m.<br />
Where: Novell Cafeteria, Mountain View Room</strong></p>
<p>Need to know more about the event? Check out <a title="Crunch Lunch" href="http://utahvalleybusinessblog.com/2008/announcing-crunch-lunch-event/" target="_blank">Crunch Lunch</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Driving Instructions?</strong><br />
Take I-15 to exit 269, which is at the South end of Provo; also known as the University Avenue exit.<br />
Novell features a large Tower building on their campus, with &#8216;Novell&#8217; prominantly displayed at the top; you can&#8217;t miss it, no matter which direction you are coming from on the freeway.</p>
<p>Take the exit and head East. Turn into Novell at their main entrance, heading straight toward the front of the Tower. Turn left and find a parking spot somewhere to the South West of the Tower.</p>
<p>Walk along the West side of the Tower, northward on a long sidewalk. Enter the first glass doors you find on your left; this is the Novell Cafeteria (nestled between the Tower, and Building A, which is the closest building to the freeway).</p>
<p>Enter the double glass doors and turn right into the main dining hall of the cafeteria. Continue northward to the far side of the cafeteria and find us through the doors in the Mountain View Room.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t forget to grab some lunch on your way through the cafeteria; they have a plethora of succulent selections.</p>
<p>See you there!</p>

<p><a href="http://utahvalleybusinessblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/seeds1.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-790" title="Seeds" src="http://utahvalleybusinessblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/seeds1-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="174" height="138" /></a>They both have their place in business to be sure.  But, what is the difference?  In business most <em><strong>Relationship Building</strong></em> starts with <em><strong>Networking</strong></em>.  <em>Networking</em> is certainly critical, as it is the initial contact, the handshake, the exchange of names, business cards, and hopefully enough interaction that the <em>seeds</em> of a possible <em>relationship</em> have been planted.</p>
<p><em>Relationship Building</em> however goes beyond <em>Networking</em>.  Once the seed is planted it needs to be nourished, taken care of, supported.  Attention needs to be paid to it.  If not, it withers and dies.  <em>Relationship Building</em> requires <a title="Business Igniter: Following Up" href="http://utahvalleybusinessblog.com/2008/the-business-igniter-following-up/" target="_blank">Follow Up</a>, and a lot of &#8220;Just Because&#8221; attitude.  If you are building the <em>relationship</em> purely for the purpose of getting business it just won&#8217;t be the same, no matter how hard you try.</p>
<p><a href="http://utahvalleybusinessblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/plant-in-hand.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-786 alignleft" title="Grow Relationships" src="http://utahvalleybusinessblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/plant-in-hand-269x300.jpg" alt="" width="161" height="181" /></a>I love the mantra that I always hear at <a title="Corporate Alliance Website" href="http://www.knoweveryone.com/" target="_blank">Corporate Alliance</a> functions such as the recent <em><strong>Reunion Tour</strong></em> held at the <a title="Zermatt Resort" href="http://www.zermattresort.com/site/index.html" target="_blank">Zermatt Resort</a> in Midway, &#8220;Every opportunity has it&#8217;s root in a relationship!&#8221;  Now, break that down a little and you will realize that the <em>relationship</em> comes first, then potentially an opportunity.  It is NOT the manufacture of an opportunity through a contrived relationship.</p>
<p>So, be genuine.  Be sincere.  Network?  Yes, but don&#8217;t stop there.  Build relationships, learn about others, seek opportunities to serve them &#8220;just because&#8221;, and your relationships, both business and personal, will experience significant growth.  As a side benefit to those quality relationships you never know what opportunities may come your way.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">To Your Success!</p>

<p><strong>Don’t blink, and bring a pencil</strong>. Each presenter has exactly five minutes to present using 20 slides. Slides automatically advance every 15 seconds. This exciting format assures a high concentration of business advice in a single lunchtime.</p>
<p><strong>Presenters are highly informative, educational, and relevant</strong>. Presenters are not allowed to pitch themselves (until the final slide), and you’ll walk away with a brainstorm of information. You’re welcomed to stay after the event to mingle and ask questions.<a title="Crunch Lunch Flyer" href="http://socialhat.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/press/Crunch_Lunch_Invitation.pdf" target="_blank"></a></p>
