From the desk of Dr. Steven Crane - Ohio, USA
It's true...
You've tried everything.
You’ve tried going to countless networking events, passed out hundreds of business cards, and joined numerous professional groups…
You and I both know, there are THOUSANDS of clients looking for your help and WANTING to pay you what you deserve.
And in this letter, I'm going to show you exactly how to build strategic relationships and get the partnerships needed to help your business grow efficiently and effortlessly.
In case we haven’t met, my name is Dr. Steven Crane and for the last 2 years, I have been helping hundreds of other business owners in Ohio build strategic relationships and find the partnerships they need.
It’s been able to help them effectively grow their businesses through a unique type of networking platform called Network in Action (NIA).

Throughout my journey, I’ve had the great pleasure of meeting great politicians, humble millionaires and billionaires, and even have seen fruitful partnerships sprout from a simple hello.
I’ve also had the privilege of helping struggling business owners and entrepreneurs get the resources they need to grow their business through forging these alliances with people they never thought they’d meet.
In 2017 after I left the Marines, I became a homeless veteran with no hope or direction on what to do.
I was at the lowest point in my life and I wasn’t able to provide to my family in the way that they deserved.
I couldn’t show up to my wife as the man I once promised her.
I was stuck with no idea on a way out.
And from that very point, my wife and I made a promise to ourselves that this would never happen again.
I did know one thing…
I had some skills and talent… and I needed to get in front of the right people to get some leverage and build the business.
I wanted to serve people. I know what it’s like being at rock bottom, so if I can help others succeed, that’s all I wanted.
But I had no idea how to get in front of the right people.
Until I heard Zig Ziglar once say, “You can have everything in life that you want if you’ll just help enough other people get what they want”
And so I did just that!
I met one person that introduced me to another who introduced me to another… and the train began.
Over the years, I met numerous people that would help me get back to where I wanted to be… but it was a slow recovering process.
I met some amazing people along the way, but again, the process took too much time, effort, and more sacrifice than I intended.
So that’s when I met the Founder of NIA.
Miraculously, he was interested in what I had built up, and told me I’d be a good fit for growing this franchise in Ohio.
He said Ohio had a few networking groups and opportunities… but all were dull and a complete pitch fest.
And that’s when it hit me...
I took the opportunity and went full force into building the franchise all over the entire state to make sure no other business owner would have to deal with aimless pitch fests, card swapping events, and transactional relationships.
And from there, we opened it up to only a few exclusive members to start with.
Basically bootstrapping the entire model until…
New members began experiencing intense changes in their lives and businesses.
One member attributed it to literally saving their life… through the past couple of unpredictable years.
Dr. Crane is a pleasure to work with, and has added so much value and education to me and my business. He continues to work and improve on all the benefits NIA provides for us. Best mentor and coach I've ever had.

One of my favorite things about the NIA architecture is how organically relationships come. It's not daunting as some groups that require frequent app updates and consistent meetings. It feels more like a community you are growing in.

What people are saying about us
Network In Action is a great group of professionals. The meetings are always engaging and informative. The group supports its members with input and understands what each of its members offers, and through this understanding, they can provide excellent referrals for potential customers. The group is also an asset to me because I can refer them to any of my customers, and I know that their needs will be taken care of and further enhance my relationships with them.

I absolutely LOVE Network In Action (NIA) for so many reasons! It’s such an amazing organization which is led by professionals who truly care about both you as a person and your company’s growth. The monthly events are really fun, the atmosphere is vibrant, the free food & drinks are awesome, and meeting only once a month is so advantageous for today’s super busy professionals! At NIA, everyone gets the opportunity to develop great long-term relationships with people you actually know and trust — that are so crucial in expanding your business.

So NIA is a really enjoyable network group! A lot of networking groups you go to, everyone is like, ‘what do you do’ ‘what do you want’ ‘what do you are you looking for’...whereas here, you really get to connect in a very personal real way it's fun to hear real stories about people in their lives and then you find something that you can relate to so when you have a conversation outside of the meeting it's not just ‘let's talk business’ because well I mean what are we going to get from each other, but I can reach out and say ‘hey what about that thing you talked about’ or ‘we have the same background’ it's something real and human and personal that I really love that makes this group stand out!
- Bethany G.

I enjoy NIA's approach to Business and have learned a lot from the people (One to One meetings) with the Dayton group, as well as some of the Videos through the NIA website / program. Steven has helped with encouragement, knowledge, and lastly two people within the music industry, where it seems one of those contacts is a good contact to communicate with. Highly recommend NIA as a networking group.
