But I do believe it is the quality and not the quantity that matters. Even if one reaches 5 people a day, the numbers keep stacking... how will you be able to maintain them all? Just network with people you feel comfortable with or have a similar interest... that's the best way to do it! Networking is probably the fastest and easiest way to land a job nowadays.

I like the idea of a pyramid to demonstrate the concept. I actually use a pyramid concept to teach about resume writing! Have you ever considered flipping the pyramid around and making "Family" the base? It would seem that the strongest position on the pyramid is at the foundation, rather than the tip. Just a thought! Enjoy the holiday! Miriam Salpeter Keppie Careers www.keppiecareers.wordpress.com Dan,
