Lawrence’s Question or Topic

Gary’s Story and Advices
Gary is a tremendous believer in a signature product. So Gary recommends Lawrence to have a signature play like a podcast or Youtube show. It’s where Gary started with Wine Library TV – building awareness that somebody is good at something or getting known in a sector.
Gary recommends that Lawrence email and send LinkedIn messages to the 50 top fashion designers, CEOs, and creative directors. There’s a big chance that at least 2 of them will reply and said yes for an interview.
Lawrence should put out himself in a position to network through bringing value.

By doing this, Lawrence will get also awareness and networking capabilities that may lead to something
