“Meet as many business partners as possible personally. It is the best fraud protection there is. Someone whom you have never met, and who has no personal relationship with you is a lot more likely to take advantage of you then someone whom you personally know and frequently meet. Therefore, the single most important thing to do during our TES Affiliate Conferences (and any other event you attend) is to go out, network, mingle and meet as many people of your industry personally as possible. In the end – it is your business and your life insurance. Note, the one with the bigger personal network is the one who receives the (insider) information, and makes in doubt the deals in case of all things being equal.” – Andreas Bischoff
