I can’t really think of that many people in my head that its like, ‘I owe you one.’” - Mark Brazil “If I had an agenda, I’d pretty much ruin the relationship and ruin future opportunities. So, I was just going there to serve and make a difference and make an impact with that coach and with that team.” - Jon Gordon Resources Mentioned: Visit Travis’ website at http://www.buildyournetwork.co/ (Buildyournetwork.co) Learn more about mentorships and masterminds for FREE at http://www.freemmcourse.com/join (freemmcourse.com/enroll) Get your tickets for Travis new live event in Vegas at http://www.bynlive.com/ (www.bynlive.com) Tameka Montgomery: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tsmontgomery/ (Linkedin) Mark Brazil: https://www.linkedin.com/in/markmastrandrea/ (Linkedin) Jon Gordon: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jongordonenergy/ (Linkedin) Download the Himalaya App in the https://apps.apple.com/us/app/podcast-audio-player-himalaya/id1275493456 (App Store) or https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ximalaya.ting.himalaya&hl=en_US (Google Play) Get more free content from Travis at http://threenetworkingsecrets.com/ (threenetworkingsecrets.com) For information regarding your data privacy, visit https://www.acast.com/privacy (acast.com/privacy)
