Networking

I picked up a valuable tip on networking yesterday.

I suppose I’m as uncomfortable networking as most people, yet we all keep going to networking events hoping to make valueable connections. The tip I picked up says that we are all doing networking incorrectly. While most people are trying to find a potential client, what we should be doing is trying to build a relationship and find a friend. The power of networking is not in the people we meet, but in the people who know the people we meet. If the people we meet like us and understand what we do, they will tell their friends. Keep this in mind the next time you find yourself at a networking event. It will remove the pressure.
