The right and the wrong way to approach a networking event<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Most of my episodes are about experimental psychology, how to deal with and manage time, energy and resources, or a unique concept I’d like you to consider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sometimes the episode is a purely business-related show. This is one of them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The excruciatingly hilariously wrong way to handle a networking event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The wrong way to approach a networking event<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
Go to networking event<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Collect as many cards as you can from people you regard as meat puppets handing you mailing list data<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Wait two weeks<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Send a three paragraph boilerplate text message to them at 2pm on a Sunday with a sales pitch about wha you can do for them<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Sit back and wait for all that cash to roll in<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
The right way to approach a networking event<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
Go to networking event <\/li>\n\n\n\n
Meet other people, engage with them to learn about them<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Listen to what they do, why they do it, ask questions because you want to learn more<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Use this information moving forward to decide who they would be a good connection for, and who would be a good connection for them<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Suggest a one-on-one to learn more if you think it is prudent<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Arrange a one-on-one with them, give a deeper dive to their business, and if appropriate, their hopes, dreams, aspirations and their human experience.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Hire them, or get hired by them if applicable<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Continue to consider who they would be a good connection for from now on<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
