Great post. And there indeed can be opportunities that are worth volunteering. It's all about having a clear picture of the "long game" you're really playing, what else you can leverage, what else it can unlock, etc. Something can always be reciprocated. And never be afraid to leverage the fact that you're volunteering your gifts and your time to get any worthwhile introduction that could come of it.

Yes, reciprocity is totally undervalued. Glad you found the post meaningful!
