Business Exchange Luncheon -
May 24, 2011
Speed Networking
A strong referral network is the result of developing relationships with a variety of people.
First, Without a doubt you will meet more people in a short timeframe than ever before.
Second,All those who participate are like you in that they have invested their time and energy to build their network.
Third, Listen and Listen. There is no time for selling, simply have a conversation and learn about what each new connection as both an individual and professional - ie, who they are, what they do.
Fourth, and most important - Follow Up is the key. Speed-networking delivers high volume and quality connections, but you must follow up and begin to cultivate the relationships. The initial interaction is only the starting point for each of your new potential relationships.
