1 Research the local scene

Before you move, do some research on the local industry, culture, and events that are relevant to your field and interests. Find out who are the key players, influencers, and organizations that you want to connect with. Follow them on social media, subscribe to their newsletters, and join their online communities. This will help you get familiar with the local trends, issues, and opportunities, and also show your interest and enthusiasm.

As a veteran-focused entrepreneur, the importance of community connection is a recurring theme. Start by researching and finding a top-notch realtor, as they excel in establishing crucial connections in the area. This extends beyond potential clients to influential business owners and community leaders. Next, engage with the local Chamber of Commerce for networking opportunities, ensuring early involvement in your new community. Harness the power of LinkedIn by filtering for the local area, reaching out to industry professionals, and expressing a desire to meet over coffee. These strategic steps will integrate you into the local business networking opportunities.

2 Attend events and workshops

One of the best ways to meet new people and expand your network is to attend events and workshops that are related to your profession or passion. Look for local meetups, conferences, seminars, webinars, or training sessions that offer valuable content and networking opportunities. Make sure you prepare your elevator pitch, business cards, and LinkedIn profile, and be ready to introduce yourself, ask questions, and exchange contacts. Follow up with the people you meet and keep in touch until you can meet again in person or online.

3 Join local groups and associations

Another way to build a professional network when relocating to a new area is to join local groups and associations that match your industry, niche, or interest. These can be formal or informal, online or offline, and offer various benefits such as access to resources, mentors, peers, events, and referrals. Find out which groups and associations are active and reputable in your area, and how you can become a member or a volunteer. Participate in their activities, contribute to their discussions, and build relationships with their members.

I recently moved to a large city, immediately I found professional groups which signed with my interests and would allow me to grow a network of people which would inspire and motivate me. Think about those groups you see regularly at industry events, attend a conference to see the breadth of options open to you. In my case, I joined an institute for directors and a small business forum. They offered both the support and network I needed.

4 Reach out to existing contacts

You don't have to start from scratch when you relocate to a new area. You can leverage your existing contacts to help you build a professional network in your new location. Reach out to your former colleagues, clients, partners, mentors, or friends who might know someone or something in your new area. Ask them for introductions, recommendations, or advice on how to navigate the local market and culture. You can also use online platforms like LinkedIn or Facebook to find and connect with people who share your background, education, or interests.

This is a no-brainer but it is great to be reminded of this once in a while. While it is recommended to look beyond what we already know, building on existing strengths sometimes can give us the much needed and sought after boost that can also give us the competitive edge.

Don't be afraid to reach out, ask for help, offer value, and show gratitude. Be authentic, respectful, and curious, and you will find people who will support you, inspire you, and collaborate with you in your new area.

In erster Linie ist LinkedIn natürlich ein einfaches Mittel, um in einem neuen Gebiet sein Netzwerk aufzubauen. Es kennt immer jemanden, der jemanden kennt. Also kommuniziere ehrlich im bestehenden Netzwerk: "Ab dem XX bin ich in einer neuen Region t?tig. Wer kann mich vernetzen?" Neben all dem positiven Mindest- und Verkaufs-Quatsch wurde LinkedIn genau dafür erfunden. Vernetzt euch, helft euch gegenseitig und teilt Kontakte. Man wei? nie, wann man den einen oder anderen Kontakt braucht. Also, "sharing is caring".
