## Resource

Most people ask for referrals and believe that simply showing up is enough. But getting referrals is not just about attendance. It is about becoming referable by positioning yourself through three simple—but often overlooked—behaviors. Few people consistently do them. Those who do often discover that referrals start coming to them naturally. For more insight on professional relationships, business networking, and generating referrals, contact Frank Agin at frankagin@amspirit.com. Through AmSpirit Business Connections, entrepreneurs and professionals grow their business through word of mouth and strong relationships—building reputation, strengthening marketing, and increasing sales.
