Develop Skills for Building Business Connections

For most people, there are few places you want to avoid more than a networking event. Yet networking events always seem to take place. They clearly work for some people. That person could be you! Regardless of how often you attend networking events, understanding the best practices can allow you to make the most of your time networking.

Join us for an interactive event where our speaker will highlight how to build your business connections at networking events. We are including a preview of some of tips that will lead our discussion and how you can take away key points on building your network.

We will discuss six ways to get the most out of any networking event:

1. Be clear about your goals and desired outcomes. Start with the end in mind.
2. Talk to people and meet new people. It can be dangerous to go to a networking event with someone you already know.
3. Become a card collector rather than a card giver.
4. Have a structured follow-up plan that works.
5. Build relationships with your new contacts.
6. Have fun and be yourself!

Our speaker is Dr. Larry Woods, president and CEO of Action4Success. He provides training for entrepreneurs, sales teams, business consulting, networking, personal branding, 212 degrees, Skills for Success, and DISC assessments workshops. Dr. Woods also founded, developed, and marketed Professional Designs & Imprints (PDI) promotional products and custom screen-printing business in a competitive market in the Triangle Area. Woods also is a retired Chief Master Sergeant senior recruiter with more than 22 years of military service with the U.S. Air Force.
