Carry
your business cards at all times and hand them out freely. |
 |
Don't
be afraid to initiate the contact with someone you don't know. Most people
are feeling the same insecurity as you. It will make you both feel more
involved if you strike up a conversation. |
 |
Get
out of your comfort zone at each meeting. Say something different - sit
somewhere different. |
 |
Do
keep expanding your network. At the end of a conversation ask, "Do you know
anyone else I might talk to about this?" |
 |
Share
the fact that you are in a network. Your clients will appreciate your extended
contacts. |
 |
Do
offer your help generously. Remember, "What goes around, comes around." |
 |
Do
take others up on their offer to help. |
