Networking starts long before the handshake, and does not stop there

The work starts before the event: knowing who you want to meet, and why. It continues afterwards. A meeting that leaves no digital trace is forgotten within three weeks. Conversely, a network kept alive online with no real contact stays a list of names. This module works on the encounter itself, and connects with the ones that extend it.

Networking pays off when it builds on these modules.

  • Social Selling : the digital half of the same discipline. Spotting, approaching, staying present between two meetings.
  • Elevate Conversations : the quality of the conversation once the contact is made.
  • Business Boost : where to put your networking effort so it actually feeds the pipeline.

Frequently asked questions

Because networking happens without cadence, without having chosen where or how, without preparation or follow-up. What was learnt over three or four encounters is lost the same evening. The module works on all four: where, how, preparation, follow-up. One simple example of what changes everything: every three or four encounters, dictate what you have learnt, so you can follow up afterwards, digitally for instance. This is what we call the gearing: your people, your processes, your methods and your tools driving each other, with as little friction as possible. We work on this part separately, in advisory, before the training or after.

By knowing before you go who you want to meet and why. Preparation starts with choosing the event, there are too many to go everywhere, then with the list of people to see, what you know about them, and what you want from them: a piece of information, an introduction, a meeting. The module teaches how to do that preparation in a few minutes, avoid the classic traps once there, and excel in the conversation itself.

By not letting the evening pass. What was learnt over three or four encounters is lost by the next day. One simple method changes everything: every three or four encounters, dictate what you have learnt and what you have promised, so that the follow-up can go out afterwards, digitally for instance, with the person’s exact words. The module works on that step from networking to conversion, which is where most business cards get lost.
