1 Prioritize Tasks

When networking remotely, it's crucial to prioritize your tasks to ensure you're not overextending yourself. Determine which networking activities are most beneficial for your career and align them with your work schedule. By focusing on high-value interactions, you can make the most of your time without sacrificing your personal life. Remember, quality over quantity applies to networking as well; it's better to have a few meaningful conversations than many superficial ones.

Aside from a "to-do" list, a calendar always helps when prioritizing networking tasks. It's helpful as well to have a purpose as to why you are meeting with each person. You can definitely set networking calls for the entire day, but were they really valuable for what you're trying to achieve, or were they just to fill the calendar?

2 Set Boundaries

Establishing boundaries is key to balancing work and life while networking remotely. Decide on specific times for networking activities and stick to them. Communicate your availability to your contacts and respect their time as well. This helps prevent work from spilling into personal time and ensures that you're networking efficiently. Boundaries also apply to the digital realm; keep your work and personal social media profiles separate when possible.

You can definitely get carried away with networking calls and meetings throughout the day and week, if you don't set boundaries. Boundaries for how much time you'll be spending on networking and also try your best to not let the calls and meetings run over time, it's ok to schedule a follow-up if required.

3 Use Technology

Embrace technology to facilitate remote networking while managing your work-life balance. Utilize platforms designed for professional interactions to streamline communication and scheduling. Tools like virtual meeting software can help you connect with others face-to-face without the need for travel, saving you time and energy. Additionally, use digital calendars to block out networking time, ensuring it doesn't conflict with personal commitments.

Some networking meetings will be better over the phone, like if you know you'll be on the road, while others are definitely better over a video conference. Best is to plan ahead of time and set expectations with that person as to how the meeting will be conducted, ahead of time.

4 Be Selective

Being selective with your networking efforts can significantly impact your ability to maintain a balanced lifestyle. Attend only the virtual events that are most relevant to your industry or career goals. This not only saves you time but also allows you to engage more deeply with those events and make more meaningful connections. It's about making strategic choices that align with both your professional objectives and personal well-being.

Be selective as to how you're spending your time with the networking efforts, especially when it's virtual. Have a purpose as to why you are taking the time to attend a specific event or set a meeting with a new person.

5 Manage Energy

Managing your energy is as important as managing your time when networking remotely. Pay attention to when you're most alert and schedule networking activities during those times. If you're a morning person, arrange virtual coffee chats early in the day. If you're more energetic in the evening, that might be the best time for online networking events. By aligning networking activities with your natural energy levels, you'll be more engaged and effective.

Managing your energy is completely up to you and different for each person. If mornings are not working out well then change it to afternoons. Maybe some weeks will be different than others, if you're traveling for example. But for networking you need to definitely be at peak energy.
