The most valuable thing abut having a strong network for me would be another person to connect with, brainstorm, run through ideas, or a group of people to ask questions or advice on things your are interested in. Having a network in general is key, but having a strong network of creators and professionals in your industry is very helpful.
This past year was full of questions and terrible thoughts that the pandemic might get worse. Luckily by having a group of people to fall back on proved to extinguish any doubts or worries. In fact this past year was one of the most productive years in my life. I believe the pandemic has made us look back on what we value most.
You can check out my website and see what I have done in the past two years of being a thumbtack professional and marketing by myself.

Being an entrepreneur can feel very lonely but having a strong network can help you have a group to bounce ideas off of. They help you get out of your head and understand the negative feelings are just that oftentimes, feelings. A different perspective can keep you grounded and give you the encouragement you need to keep going.
I've seen many in my network thrive and it gave me the energy to realize even when the sky is falling you can have a few moment of panic but that other people are going through similar and you can use their wisdom to get through. Technology has helped tremendously keeping our network strong and I've been able to make some really great connections through this past year.

The most valuable thing about having a strong network is to allow yourself to be held accountable in all that you do. Holding up your end of the deal, while doing your best work for those that give you the opportunity, is where you begin to grow as an entrepreneur!
Everybody has to start somewhere, and for me, I wasn't sure if I could make it as an entrepreneur (photographer) in the competitive city: of New York City. But allowing yourself to start small with those around you while putting your best foot forward in all that you do and believe in your peers that support you, who are on the same journey as you, will allow you to grow as a community for there will be opportunities for collaboration and leads that connect with people even outside the network!
