Bonnie did an amazing job teaching us professionals what to do before networking. You’ve got to watch my video, says Shawn Manaher.
“Yesterday I had an amazing time networking and connecting with sooo many people over the course of this 6 hour event,” says Shawn Manaher.
Highlights:
Be ready for these long events by making sure you take in lots of water, stay caffeinated, eat and take breaks when needed.
My engagement with Bonnie Ross-Parker was a huge highlight for me! You all have to watch the video to hear about my interaction with Bonnie Ross-Parker. Hilarious!!! She did an amazing job teaching us what you need to do before you network; she really cares about professional people and how they network. Here are some ideas:
– Personalized name badge
– Professional business cards
– Follow-up Plan
– Signature thing that makes you you – Dress properly
From the event as a whole I learned a great deal about making sure to tell your business story in a variety of ways to not only keep people interested, but keep yourself interested in the event too.
I took away from the event some great learnings and about 10 opportunities for me to then follow up with folks 1 on 1… And oh, some of those 1 on 1s, they really want to hear about my business too. This works folks! Really does! Here’s to your networking… #networkingatlanta #networkingtips #atlantanetworking
