Top Tips on successful networking
Click here to read the tips in full
1. When you introduce yourself to a group, tell them more
about HOW you work than the details of what you do.
2. Be interested in other people and listen to what they say.
3. Never dismiss anyone as ' not relevant to my business'
4. Look for ways to help other networkers. Would it help them to speak
to someone you know?
5. Ask people to have a one-to-one coffee with you perhaps after the
meeting to see if there is any synergy between your businesses or just
to get to know more about them.
This month’s top tips come from Pam Woods from Conquest Business Events.
