1 Prepare your contact list

Before you attend an event, do some research on who will be there and what their roles and interests are. Make a list of the people you want to meet and why. This will help you prioritize your networking efforts and have meaningful conversations with them. You can use social media, event websites, or online directories to find out more about them.

In my experience, sending a quick LinkedIn message to potential folks you are looking forward to meeting even before the event is a great way to start building a connection and getting on their radar. By conducting comprehensive research and approaching your networking with a clear purpose, you can effectively utilize your time during the event and boost your chances of establishing meaningful professional relationships.

2 Be memorable and authentic

During the event, make sure you introduce yourself to the people on your list and exchange contact information. You can use business cards, QR codes, or digital platforms to share your details. But more importantly, be memorable and authentic in your interactions. Show interest in their work, ask open-ended questions, share relevant stories, and compliment their achievements. Avoid being too salesy, pushy, or generic.

Teach them how to use the QR scanner to connect on LinkedIn. Teaching them something is a way to stand out that's easy to do and helpful at the same time.

3 Follow up within 48 hours

After the event, don't wait too long to follow up with your new contacts. Ideally, you should do it within 48 hours, while the event is still fresh in their minds. You can use email, phone, or social media to reach out to them. Thank them for their time, remind them of your conversation, and suggest a next step. For example, you can invite them to join your newsletter, connect on LinkedIn, schedule a call, or collaborate on a project.

For example, you could say, "I wanted to thank you for taking the time to speak with me at (Event Name) earlier this week. I thoroughly enjoyed learning more about your work in (Refer to something specific from the conversation). As we discussed, I believe there could be potential for us to collaborate on (specific project or idea discussed during conversation), and I would love to explore this possibility further. I have included a link to my portfolio/website below, which includes more information about my work. If you are interested, let's schedule a call to discuss this opportunity in more detail. Please let me know what dates and times work best for you, and we can arrange a time that suits us both."

Sending a voice note is my favorite thing to do. - Connect on LinkedIn - Send voice note via DM - Comment on their posts That's an easy way to build a network of people you enjoy connecting with and that enjoy connecting with you.

4 Add value and stay in touch

Following up is not a one-time thing. You need to nurture your relationships with your contacts and add value to them. You can do this by sharing useful resources, introducing them to other people, giving feedback, offering support, or inviting them to other events. You can also stay in touch by commenting on their posts, liking their updates, or sending occasional messages. Don't spam them or ask for favors without giving anything in return.

5 Track and measure your results

Networking and following up can be time-consuming and overwhelming. That's why you need to track and measure your results. You can use a spreadsheet, a CRM system, or an app to organize your contacts and keep track of your interactions. You can also set goals and metrics to evaluate your networking performance. For example, you can measure how many contacts you made, how many referrals you got, how many opportunities you created, or how much revenue you generated.

6 Keep learning and improving

Networking and following up are skills that you can improve over time. You can learn from your own experiences, feedback, and mistakes. You can also learn from other emcees, mentors, coaches, or online courses. Networking and following up are not only beneficial for your career, but also for your personal growth. They can help you expand your horizons, discover new possibilities, and make a positive impact on others.
