The emphasis of this course will be on quality of the most important business relationships rather than many mediocre relationships.

Anyone can send out mass spam-like email campaigns hoping to get a few responses. But those aren't too well targeted, and typically yield poor results.

The best results come from fostering a few wisely chosen business relationships with the right people. If your relationships with the right people grow over time, it will lead to many big deals where everyone wins.
