5 ways to boost your networking
Let’s get honest here
1.
Any situation is a networking opportunity
in an elevator
waiting in line for a sandwich
commenting on someone’s haircut
coming across someone with a bucket of fish
Create the networking opportunity-don’t wait for someone else to create it for you.
2.
It’s not always what they can do for
YOU-but what you can do for THEM
make a introduction with someone they need in their network
share key info on a trend they might be interested in
give them a tip when it comes to a topic you’re a subject matter expert in
Helping someone out will always keep you in the forefront of their minds.
3.
Keep up with your network
send them a YouTube video on a new trend they might find interesting
invite them to an event they’ve shown interest in
send them a referral if they’re looking for someone with specific talents
add Value when you reach out to your network.
4.
Check your annoying meter
(in real time)
are you reaching out too often after the initial meeting? (anything over 1X a month is too much—unless there is a back and forth occurring)
if they haven’t responded after 2 attempts—stop reaching out. (Get the hint)
Silence is golden, unless it’s a technique being used to keep you at bay. Respect people’s time.
5.
Check your breath
