This document compares the approaches of a hunter versus a farmer. A hunter actively seeks out new connections but may not focus on building relationships, while a farmer nurtures their existing network over time. The farmer's approach relies on caring for connections to generate referrals and grow a sustainable business year after year. The key is acting as a farmer by regularly engaging your network and giving referrals, as this allows your connections to know what types of opportunities you can provide and helps your overall network expand organically over the long run.
