In 'Is offline networking still relevant?' I wrote about the interview I did with Rod Sloane. After answering that question he asked if I had any simple networking tips. I answered that follow up was the big thing that makes people stand out & to be effective at follow up you need to learn to listen.
In a recent survey of first time guests at NRG networking events we found that the top three reasons for networking are:
1. More Business
2. New connections
3. Help with business issues
The most successful networkers build relationships by following up quickly and providing referrals, introductions and help to others. If you listen for where you can do the same and do it then others will do it for you.
Good Networking!
