Imagine you walk up to someone at an event, say “Hi“ and keep staring at them…
Strange, right? Awkward too. And somewhat, embarrassing.
Well, that’s exactly what all these-
“Hey, what’s up?“
“Hello!“
“Hi, you there?“
cold outreach that we all do on a day-to-day basis seems like. They are the online version of that awkward offline situation.
Networking is not about asking someone to hop on a call or asking them how their day was. It is about adding and extracting value; creating a win-win situation.
So the next time you are at an event, be intentional and do your homework.
Good luck with this weekend’s meet-and-greet events that you are signing up for!💪🏻
