What You’ll Discover Today:

In this episode of The Inside BS Show, Dave Lorenzo breaks down the harsh truth behind referrals: nobody owes you anything. Whether you're in a networking group like ProVisors or just doing business in your community, referrals are earned—not given. Dave walks you through a clear, five-point framework for earning trust, providing value, and ultimately securing high-quality introductions.

Key Topics Discussed:

Why being in a referral group doesn’t entitle you to anything
The mindset shift from “I deserve” to “I earn”
The real reason people give referrals: self-interest
The Rule of Three: why you must deliver value at least three times before asking
How to make a specific ask—and why specificity matters

Episode Breakdown:

Nobody Owes You Anything
Even in referral-focused groups, value must be earned. No one is obligated to send you business.
People Act Out of Self-Interest
If you want something from someone, ask yourself: what’s in it for them?
Demonstrate Value First
Before you ask for a meeting, a favor, or a referral, prove your worth through action.
The Rule of Three
Provide three high-quality touches—introductions, referrals, or other value—before ever asking for anything in return.
Be Specific in Your Ask
When you finally do make a request, don’t just say “Can you help me?” Say who you want to meet and why.
