If you have a friend or coworker who is also looking to expand their network\, consider attending professional events together.\n\n Set a goal and an intention. Whether your goal is to generate referrals or simply build your virtual rolodex for the future\, you should take time to generate an elevator pitch that conveys what you do\, for whom you do it\, and why customers should choose you!\n\n Find mutual points of connection when meeting members and set a follow up. Making connections is only half the battle\; you also have to take steps to keep the relationship going. You could forward a relevant article\, invite them to a seminar or conference\, or even just send a friendly note during the holidays.\n\n Avoid being negative When searching for conversation starters\, avoid speaking negatively about former companies or coworkers. After all\, you don't want potential contacts thinking you'd say bad things about them given the opportunity.
