Spring and Fall
Education Seminars
Maximize the Value of Networking?
Before the event: Have a strategy. Business owners should go into the event knowing who they want to meet to expand their contacts and resources.
During the event: Engage in meaningful conversations and look for ways to help other people. Don’t spend too much time with any single person but be sure to ask how you can help.
After the event: Follow-up. Follow-up. Most people forget to reach out to contacts they’ve made at the event. Making followup phone calls and scheduling meetings are critical components that will help open new doors.
