Ever introduce yourself at a networking event and, instead of producing interest, you get the blank stare of someone who has no idea what you said? 

It isn’t hard to tell someone what you do but the truth is, no one really cares.

How do you know you’ve done it well?

When they say: “WOW!

Can you tell me more?”
