What this is
NGA’s professional network management — a structured view of every network Dishant is part of, who to connect with in each, and the status of those relationships.
Why this exists
Dishant operates through networks — BNI, CA associations, alumni, industry bodies, client referral networks. The closed deal in Week 2 came from a direct prospect meeting. The Aligarh prospect came from a blister packaging referral. The Tuesday BNI prospect came from a BNI colleague. Networks are the primary source of NGA’s pipeline. Without a system, this is all in Dishant’s head.
Network list
Dishant to populate. For each network: name, type, how often it meets or operates, and who are the key connections to cultivate.
