Level Up Your Networking!
Mini Tour 7: Tips from My Tribe
Tips from My Tribe
On line community groups are all the talk nowadays and I created The Networker's Tour Guide private facebook group to provide support for networkers of all sorts and types.
I asked those in my group to give me their best networking tips to be featured in an article. Read them below. What tip would you add? You can email me you tip, or better yet, join the facebook group and post it there.
"Have a positive mindset when you enter and remember to smile and be approachable with your body language." -From Ginger with Neora.
"Practice, practice, practice! If you're a nervous networker, having practiced your pitch before a networking event will help you feel more confident and help ensure you don't stumble over your words. Plus, it never hurts to perfect that pitch anyway!" -From Holly with Strategic Benefit Partners
"There are two types of people that walk into a room. One says, 'Here I am!' and the other that says, 'There you are!' Be the latter." From Cheryl with The Moore Chamber of Commerce
"When meeting new people always introduce yourself, when they reply with their name always repeat it by saying something like 'Nice to meet you Jim' or 'Jim, it's a pleasure to meet you.' Saying their name helps you by putting a face to a name." From Janice with 4AM Farms
"Set clear intentions. I always aim to connect with 2 people and schedule follow up on the spot!" From Tracey with Ignite Your Champions
Go network my friend, and remember;
Try any one of these tips, and see if it doesn't improve your networking.
