Networking is Networking

Start networking before you need itNetworking when you have no ulterior motive, you can begin to build

relationships and a reputation for being generous rather than self-serving.

Have a planSince every person has value, it’s essential that you know what yours is. Map

out what you want to talk about, particularly how you may be able to help other

people, either now or in the future.

Forget your personal agendaGenerosity is an attractive quality and it’s something special that people will

remember about you.

Never dismiss anyone as unimportantMake it your mission to discover the value in each person you talk to.

Connect the dots. Make it a point to connect people you feel have something of

genuine value to each other.

Figure out how you can be usefulBefore any conversation comes to a close, be sure to ask, “How can I help

you?” OR “If you need anything, please reach out to me or connect via

LinkedIn” and present your business card.

Follow up and follow throughIf you told someone you’d get in touch with them, do it and reaffirm your

intent to assist in any way you can. If you promised to introduce someone

to a person you know, take the time to do it. Little things mean a lot to

people and just one introduction can end up changing someone’s life for

the better.

Believe in the power of networkingWhen you believe that the true value of networking lies in helping others

and you do your part, you’ll soon discover magic happening all around you.

Networking is Networking
