So what’s the
The 5 Secrets of Networking
Know
Before
you go…
Target your connections
Set a goal to identify who you need to
know and who needs to know you
• Who are the decision makers and key
influencers? Where can I meet them? How
do I get into their circles? What is it I want
from the event?
Prepare questions
• Have a few targeted, engaging questions
prepared ahead of time (These could be
focused on their interests, career path, the
things they like/dislike about their job,
advice they may have for new
professionals.)
Stay informed with current events
• Read at least four articles from local
topics, national news, company
newsletters, weather information, sports,
best sellers list, and food blogs before the
event to have some “back pocket”
conversation topics handy. Pick 3-5 items
to use as emergency re-starters in case
the conversation starts to drag.

forums and board meetings, chamber of
commerce, and grand openings in your
local paper.

groups, alumni networks, committee,
serve on nonprofit boards, become an
ambassador with the local chamber, or
volunteer with organizations of interest.
• Become an event organizer yourself.
• Ask to help with the check-in/registration
table.
• Attend your kid’s events: Little League,
soccer, Boy Scouts, etc.
• Plan to attend at least two or three meet-
ups a month.
Research

compelling summation of who you are, what
you do, why you are at the networking
function, and how you bring value to others.

manager. Prior to that I managed the
admissions process, recruitment, and helped
students navigate the process of getting into
nursing school for the past few years and it’s
been great. What I enjoy most is the ability to
solve problems and help students fulfill their
career goals.”

Networking is not a natural ability that some people are “just born with.” It takes time
and practice.
Create a game plan: Strategy, Preparation,
Goals, and Tactics
Develop a networking style or system that sets you
apart from the ordinary professional.
 The Direct Networker
 Wants to get straight down to business
 Wants to know exactly what return you
can give them
 A firm hand shaker and will offer a
business card immediately
 When talked to, she wants to get straight
to the point about how you can help her
 Punctual, especially with meetings
 The Promoter
 Informal
 Chatty
 Views networking events as social
occasions
 Seller
 Will greet, gauge interest, then move on
to the next conversation
 All about quantity with him
 The Expressive Networker
 Values making connections
 Lively and outgoing
 Ensures that other people attending the
networking event is comfortable and isn’t
left on their own

 Hates networking events
Stand by the door. Arrive early and hang around by the
entrance. When people register and begin mingling, you’ll be
among the first people they see.
Arrive 15 minutes prior to the start of, and plan to stay for the entire event.
Some of the best conversations occur before and after an event.
Walk the room by going to all 4 corners of the room. Introduce yourself to others along
the way. As you introduce yourself, remember to pronounce your full name clearly.
Add one item to your wardrobe or briefcase that will give
others something to immediately comment on.
The Conversation Starter
Wear a name tag on your
right side. A person’s
eyes will follow the line
of sight from the
handshake.
Adda conversation
starter to your name tag.
Ask me how I can help
you!
The Rule of 3
Approach groups of three people. It’s likely one of them will not be actively involved in
their conversation and will be open to talking to you.
“But what do you say (or talk about) when you first meet
someone?”
Conversation Starters You’ll
Actually Use
• “So ______, what exactly do you do
at______?” [then shut up and
listen!]
• “Hi ____, please tell me about you?
• “What got you involved in this
organization/event?”
• “I really like your________.”
• “May as well chat if we’re in line
for_______.”
• “How did you get involved with this
line of work and what have you
enjoyed most from your
experience?”
• “What can you tell me
about________?”
• “What is the greatest opportunity
for _________? Biggest challenge?”
• “What do you do when you’re
not___________?”
Always shake hands with the right.
Some cultures consider the left unclean.
“What if you see a group of people who seem engaged in quality
conversation?”
Just approach them and say, “Well, you guys are certainly
have more fun than the last group I was talking to.”
To have meaningful conversations with as many potential connections as possible, limit
your time with each interaction to five minutes.
Observe the 5-Minute Rule
Ask Powerful Networking Questions
 “What are the challenges
you've been facing in your
industry?”
 “What do you do when you're
not working?”
 “Is there anything you need
or are specifically looking for,
in case I happen to know
anyone?”
 “How did you get involved
in…?”
 “What made you decide to go
into the ___business?”
 ‘What advice would you give
me if I wanted to be
successful in your line of
work?”
 “What do you love/enjoy
most about what you do?”
 “How you can be of service to
them.”
 “Is there anything you're
specifically looking for in that
area?“
 “What ways have you found to
be the most effective for
promoting your
business/organization/product?”
 “What would make a
person/company an ideal
client/customer for you?”
 “What separates your
business/company/organization
from the competition?”
 “What significant changes have
you seen take place in your
profession/area of expertise
through the years?”
Body Language
• Observe how people stand, and
how they are physically grouped
together.
– Look for open groups vs. closed
groups.

• Observe how people stand, and
how they are physically grouped
together.
– Look for open groups vs. closed

• Don’t create barriers between
you and the other person:
– “Avoid darting eyes’
– “Don’t fold your arms…”
– “Resist the urge to look at the
floor”

• Try this instead:
– “Keep an open stance with all body
parts aligned”
– “Make good eye contact”
– “Smile”
Be a good listener – 80% listening, 20% talking
Remember, don’t dress for the job you do (or don’t)
have; dress for the job you want.
Flattery will get you far in this world. Lead with a compliment
on his or her attire or a recent accomplishment.
Great Job!
“Address him or her by name several times during conversation,
especially as you part ways.”
It’s probably time to politely excuse yourself… End conversation by offering to help
or support your new contact in some way.
If you are in a conversation and
it’s been about five minutes you
start to notice that the other
person has started shifting
weight from foot to foot, and
his eyes are wondering over
your shoulder…
Exit Gracefully
Exit Gracefully
“It’s a pleasure to meet you. I’m very
interested in you and your business.”
Then comes the question, “How can I or
those in my network help you with your
biggest problem or challenge you’re
facing today?”

Rule #2: Give your business

Rule #3: Don’t waste
contact information.
A Few Quick Tips:
• Have at least 15-20 for each event.
• Keep in carrying case to protect from fold and creases.
• Do not carry in your back pocket. No one wants to receive a card that you’ve sat on.
• Every professional, even if you are currently unemployed or a student, should have a business card.
• Should include name, contact information, (including LinkedIn profile & personal website address), and
title.
• Ask each person you meet for two cards--one to pass on to someone else and one to keep.
• When given a business card from someone, politely say thank you and look at for a few seconds
before putting it away.
• Take notes on the back of the business card.

Just like in school, every student is different
and not everyone learns the same way.
We are all unique individuals, with
unique sets of experiences.
Everyone has a story. Try to find a connection between your
story and someone else’s by engaging in meaningful dialogue.
There is no faster way to build rapport with a new connection
than to ask great questions.
Always Focus On Building A Connection With
People
 Share stories.
 Connect with people
on a personal level.
 Find out..
Common interests
Common passions
Common circle of friends
And
 How you can help
them?
they are likely willing to share advice and insight from their experiences.
There is an opportunity to learn something new from everyperson.
If you genuinely show interest in people...
You should never ask
for a favor without
providing the
relationship
groundwork.
People may be “turned off” by direct requests for help. It is
best to establish a friendship before you ask help from
connections.
Are you hiring or do
you know someone?
Most networkers are all about “me”. You can stand out by genuinely caring about the
other person. Invest in the relationship with time, energy, and resources.
Care About The
People
Share Your Expertise
• Remember that you have
something special to offer.
• Look for opportunities to
speak at trade association
meeting, workshops,
industry conferences,
conventions, and webinars.
• Share relevant articles,
trainings, advice, services,
job leads from other
connections you’ve come
across.
• Write a blog.
• Bring people together.
Build Credibility When Connecting
• Always know what you are
talking about.
• Work hard and stay focused.
• Be enthusiastic about what
you do and how you do it.
• Focus on the needs of others.
• Use your power and influence
to help others.
• Always keep appointments,
return phone calls in a timely
manner, follow through on
promises.
• Do not disparage others for
your own benefit.

Friends and Influence People.
The 5 Secrets of Networking
So how do you build and maintain
connections?
One of the best things you can do is share
information.
• How often do you forward articles
or services you found helpful to
your network?
• How often do you post the link to
your Facebook page allowing all
your friends to benefit?
• Do you post the discussion or
forward the article to your
LinkedIn groups?
• Do you share it with your LinkedIn
connections?
• Do you Tweet and include the link
so all of those following you can
benefit?
• Do you make announcements at
networking meetings about how
you benefited from an article or
service?
• Have you passed along YouTube
videos that you found helpful?
Networking is not about
selling yourself
• Networking isn't, "Hi, what
can you do for me?" but
rather: "Hi. Let's get to
know each other. What
can I do for you?"

EMAIL
• Alex Moore, CEO of Baydin, an email
management service, suggested that emails
sent from 6 A.M. to 7 A.M. are about three
times more likely to be opened than emails
sent at 4 P.M.
• She found that when she sent mail on Sunday
afternoon, her open rate was as high as 44
percent, while it bottomed out at 35 percent
when she sent it during the workweek.
Twitter
• Fuseworks Studios made an infographic
entitled “Maximizing Your Tweets” based on
data obtained by Buddy Media.
• Twitter engagement is higher between 8 A.M.
and 7 P.M. (turns out fewer people are “on”
Twitter during the middle of the night).

  • 11. CNN HAS ESTIMATED THAT 80% OF JOBS ARE NEVER ADVERTISED AND INSTEAD FILLED THROUGHNETWORKINGAND EMPLOYEE REFERRALS!
  • 12. I’ve heard the most challenging part of networking, for most people, is striking up a conversation with strangers.
  • 16. Target your connections Set a goal to identify who you need to know and who needs to know you • Who are the decision makers and key influencers? Where can I meet them? How do I get into their circles? What is it I want from the event? Prepare questions • Have a few targeted, engaging questions prepared ahead of time (These could be focused on their interests, career path, the things they like/dislike about their job, advice they may have for new professionals.) Stay informed with current events • Read at least four articles from local topics, national news, company newsletters, weather information, sports, best sellers list, and food blogs before the event to have some “back pocket” conversation topics handy. Pick 3-5 items to use as emergency re-starters in case the conversation starts to drag.
  • 17. Target your connections Set a goal to identify who you need to know and who needs to know you • Who are the decision makers and key influencers? Where can I meet them? How do I get into their circles? What is it I want from the event? Prepare questions • Have a few targeted, engaging questions prepared ahead of time (These could be focused on their interests, career path, the things they like/dislike about their job, advice they may have for new professionals.) Stay informed with current events • Read at least four articles from local topics, national news, company newsletters, weather information, sports, best sellers list, and food blogs before the event to have some “back pocket” conversation topics handy. Pick 3-5 items to use as emergency re-starters in case the conversation starts to drag. Become a social event crasher • Find events calendar, listings for public forums and board meetings, chamber of commerce, and grand openings in your local paper. • Join civic clubs, professional business groups, alumni networks, committee, serve on nonprofit boards, become an ambassador with the local chamber, or volunteer with organizations of interest. • Become an event organizer yourself. • Ask to help with the check-in/registration table. • Attend your kid’s events: Little League, soccer, Boy Scouts, etc. • Plan to attend at least two or three meet- ups a month.
  • 18. Research • Request a list of attendees from event host prior to event.
  • 19. Research • Request a list of attendees from event host prior to event. • Search social media sites to get an idea of who is attending.
  • 20. Research • Request a list of attendees from event host prior to event. • Search social media sites to get an idea of who is attending. • Learn attendees' first and last names.
  • 21. Research • Request a list of attendees from event host prior to event. • Search social media sites to get an idea of who is attending. • Learn attendees' first and last names. • Find out attendees job titles, what they do, where they’re from--any little tid- bits that will help you break into conversation.
  • 22. Elevator pitch • Prepare to give a clear, concise, and compelling summation of who you are, what you do, why you are at the networking function, and how you bring value to others.
  • 23. Elevator pitch • Prepare to give a clear, concise, and compelling summation of who you are, what you do, why you are at the networking function, and how you bring value to others. • Have at least two good openers.
  • 24. Elevator pitch • Prepare to give a clear, concise, and compelling summation of who you are, what you do, why you are at the networking function, and how you bring value to others. • Have at least two good openers. • I try to keep mine at 30 seconds (12-20 words).
  • 25. Elevator Pitch Example “ I work in higher education as a data manager. Prior to that I managed the admissions process, recruitment, and helped students navigate the process of getting into nursing school for the past few years and it’s been great. What I enjoy most is the ability to solve problems and help students fulfill their career goals.”
  • 28. Challenges 1)Difficult to start a conversation. 2)Difficult to make small talk and continue conversations.
  • 29. Challenges 1)Difficult to start a conversation. 2)Difficult to make small talk and continue conversations. 3)Difficult to end conversations.
