Ten years of weekly, dated writing from a working entrepreneur, collected into the three pillars shaping how you grow: Business Networking, Communications and Technology. Not abstract concepts. Daily disciplines opening doors, create opportunities and build something lasting.
“Write this on a rock: Build relationships first. Sell later.”
You know the feeling. A drawer of business cards and a contact list a mile wide, and when you need a referral, an introduction, or a next opportunity, the phone stays quiet. The follow-up you meant to send never went out. The warm conversation from last month went cold.
Here is the truth this book is built on: your pipeline, your referrals, your next role and your reputation all run on relationships. And relationships are not a personality trait. They are a practice, with a sequence and the sequence can be learned.

Seventy real entries, each with its original date, organized into three pillars.
Every entry was written in the moment and carries its original date, from 2011 to 2022. You are not reading conclusions polished after the fact. You are watching a working entrepreneur figure it out in public, one Wednesday at a time, while building the business and the community he was writing about. The reader reads the book they need.
“Frank writes in an easy going style with lots of leadership tips and advice that is invaluable for new entrepreneurs or long time pros. Informative without being boring.”

Yvonne Pilon, President and CEO, WEtech Alliance“Building Legacies distills his hard-earned wisdom into powerful, real-world insights... A must-read for leaders who aspire to build something greater than themselves.”

My father immigrated from Italy at 17 and found work the next day. This work ethic shaped 38 years in the IT sector, 30 of them as an owner and president, where with my partners we grew a very small IT company into a national player. Those lessons became my book series and the talks I now share with teams, leaders and members across the country.
Frank is open to speaking and training opportunities, and every session runs on the same promise as the book: real stories, not theory. Every audience leaves with one clear takeaway they can act on the same day.
An inspiring, story-led session that energises conferences, AGMs and member events.
Focused, practical workshops on networking, leadership and building lasting relationships.
Approachable, high-value sessions your team will talk about long after lunch is over.
Business Networking That Works • Leadership & Growing People • Communication & Connection • Mentorship & Building Leaders • Entrepreneurship & Resilience • Giving Back to the Community
“If all of us help each other be better, just imagine how the world would be better for all of us.”
That belief built a decade of writing, two networking communities and now this series. The next circle it builds could include you.
