Maybe you love networking. Maybe it fills you with existential dread. (Maybe both??) But are you good at it? Being good at networking isn’t meeting a few people, making some connections and then feeling great about yourself (though, please, go ahead and feel great about yourself!). It’s about expanding your network, making real, personal connections and taking strategic steps forward for yourself and your business.
So how do you make sure those things happen? NOT by throwing on some combination of heels and a sport coat and slapping a few people on the back. You do it by making a networking plan, thinking through what you’re going to say and do (yes, via scripts) and then executing.
There’s more that’s great to this approach than just the results. A little planning and consistent M.O. will reduce any anxiety you might have, it will save time and it will result in deeper, more personal connections. Wow: win, win, win, win, win.
