"WOW! What a great networking resource Mary is! I learned so much from her in the 'Ideal Network Club.' Her book, 'Who's Hiding in your Address Book?' is great and details how to organize and utilize contacts to best advantage, and expand your network. Thanks , Mary!"

"Joining the Ideal Network Club was one of the best things I've done. Fellow club members gave me ideas that I never would have considered. Donna Noyce with Prominent Agent is helping me create a Website, and introduced me to several other great marketing ideas. Mary Kurek's mini e-mail campaign is brilliant, yet simple. My first e-mail was to find auction items to support our local Boys & Girls Club, and I received my first response in 4 minutes! By the end of the deadline, I had received 6 items to be donated, which I would not have had if not for the e-mail campaign.
I would urge anyone to consider being a part of the Ideal Network Club. It has given me the knowledge and opportunity to make connections here in Carteret County as well as nationwide -- not just for my business, but for all of the organizations in which I am involved. A BIG THANK YOU to Mary Kurek and The Carteret County Chamber of Commerce."

"Donna Noyce and I knew each other briefly before this club. During the club, we learned more about each other and what we actually do and offer to the client. I gave my credit card services to Donna after investigating many different companies and banks. Donna also has agreed to promote and refer Office Fusion Solutions services, especially payroll. This is a great marriage and it is a pleasure working with Donna.
Jane Hahn did not realize what I did exactly in my Mary Kay business besides sell cosmetics. I enlightened her through an exercise we did at a Club session, and she is interested in having a Mary Kay Party and having me do makeovers for new business photos."

"Thanks to the Ideal Network Club I was able to help an elderly, well-known artist friend of mine get a computer.
I used the mini e-mail campaign, asking specifically for a "Used Computer". I immediately received responses from many of my contacts; one even offered to help buy a computer! (Thanks Kim Merrels!) I asked everyone if they could get back to me by a certain date, so I could tell my artist friend if I was able to find one or not. Betsy DeCampo at the Community College called yesterday and said she had found one! I was so excited!
Thanks to Betsy DeCampo, the Salvation Army, and the Ideal Network for making this all happen!!!"

"Two of my co-workers at Pine Knoll Shores Realty decided to join The Ideal Network Club, and encouraged me to come along.
I made some incredible network connections, both locally and on-line, but the best thing I gained from the club was a surprise. I greatly increased my computer literacy level!
I now understand what a blog is, a chat room,and a search engine. Wow, this is all scary stuff, but so important in the world we live in. I had just about decided that I knew all I’d ever know about computers.
In the Ideal Network Club, I discovered a world of things out there that are not so hard, and actually fun. I find I’m making much more efficient use of the things available to me free and right here at my desk."

"First I'd like to say that the Ideal Network Club has been a great experience for me (thank you, thank you, thank you Mary Kurek!). It has helped me tremendously in many ways. The connections I've made from the Club have secured me six new clients and two collaborators. All of this activity has helped me redefine my operations. I have streamlined my entire product and service offerings, and even changed the name of my business."

"There were a number of good points derived from the Ideal Network Club, but utilization of the Linkedin Internet site allowed me to re-connect with a former college classmate. This may be beneficial to both of us, as I expect some future real estate contacts for Coastal Heritage Realty and me. I have given him one lead for his business, which is in the recruitment field. Thank you Ideal Network Club for aiding in this connection."

" I used the specific methods outlined in the e-mail campaign to introduce my community outreach program. I e-mailed the entire Steering Committee for Leadership Carteret, explaining the specific kinds of connections I wanted to make in the community. The e-mail campaign resulted in a connection that led to a presentation to the Carteret County Human Resources group.
Also, after learning about Squidoo.com in the opening session, I created a “lens” entitled Changing the World Through Adventure Education (Glover, 2008) that is both engaging and interactive. The link to the web page is now part of my e-mail signature and serves as an introduction to me and my big picture objective."
