Joe Craig’s 5 Top Tips for networking
- You’re there to connect, not to transact. So think about how you can help someone, not what you can sell them.
- Pretend you’re the host. It can give you a more confident, calm energy if you imagine everyone else is only there because you invited them, or your friends brought them.
- Join a conversation with, ‘Mind if I join you?’ – it’s simple and nobody ever actually minds if you join them.
- You don’t need an excuse to move on. Find your own version of, ‘It’s been great talking to you, let’s catch up again soon.’
- If you see a queue, join it, turn round and say hello.
