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
