Networking is hip. Is this because
you're at all street corners and every 24 hours or can go to a meatups, events or other meeting Whether it's the self-employed who keep shooting making it sometimes just
stops and tells someone that he works for a good boss? Off the ground
How can you effectively network? Networking is not
present in as many events, networking is really almost even work!
Exhibitions and Events
The
first time I had been fixed networks is where I had to stand. Account manager
at a booth at one of the eventsThroughout the day. Often you will be put in a separate
room with all suppliers. Rows of
booths behind, alongside one another. Usually,
visitors to the events just yet pushed along the stands just before or during
the lunch because otherwise they can not get to the lunch buffet. It was horrible, all the people speak
and listen to the interesting stories fixed in their minds. At that time I still smoked,
occasionally I fled to go to the smoking area. Since it was always fun.Whether
directors were in suits, maintenance personnel or smooth sales boys. In the smoking room everyone was equal,
it was always fun and always had a chat.
Open to each other
Actually,
I was always a good networker. With
a cigarette in my hand in any case. Of
course it was not cigarette. The
point was that I felt at ease there and had no idea that there was a huge hierarchy.
The
most efficient networks is I think mainly in environments where everyone is
equal. Of course you have
different levels of experience but if everyone is open to each other and not
feel exalted above other than I think you create the optimum environment for networking. So keep on with your blablabla
blablabla director of caricature. Be
yourself and be open to others.
Events
I
started my blog with a list of all networking opportunities out there today. Everywhere places yourself profiling
and engagen with people. What if
you just do not. Most of the
information you get to hear you also on the LinkedIn page of someone find or
filter out the Twitter bio of someone. That
is not so interesting. What is
interesting is to know. The person behind the profile What are her interests? What keeps him busy? Where are their eyes twinkle? Because you're talking about that kind
of subjects, often feel they're already more familiar. Networks must think also feel like
building a friendship and not as hard pitch and over and over again. As you get to know each other better
you will immediately leads to have with each other. Again continue conversations about each
other's interests and very occasionally, as a sales question in between set and
then talk about other things. Again by very quickly with each.
Social media

| Social Networking |
Social
media are of course ideal for networking. You
can follow people and interact with them to go. Because that's important. It is annoying when you have that
never say anything to you, never respond to your tweets but suddenly or send a
sales request in a DM. Followers Social
media can also contribute to good networking at events. People often go to the same events
every year or every month to the same meetings. Chances are high that you often
encounter each other. The first
time you speak to each other, it might be a bit scan and explore both sides. But immediately send a follow request
for example Twitter and you get a lot more information about someone. Go to the interaction with that
person, wish him a good day or even congratulate her with a running
performance. The next time you
speak to each other again at an event, it seems like you already know each
other a bit and the conversation much easier.
Blogging
Last
but not least, of course, blogging. A
great way to get your thoughts on paper and to vent your opinion. To profile yourself and it's a nice
part of your personal branding, or that it should be in any case. Blogging is also good to talk with
others to enter. They respond to
your blogs where you can respond again. They
send you blog through which you can thank them and ask how they can think about
right away. At events people will
perhaps appeal about your blog. For them a good reason to talk to you and for
you both a nice base for networking.
