1 Identify your goals and interests

Before you start networking, you need to have a clear idea of why you want to connect with people from other industries and what you hope to gain from them. Do you want to explore new career paths, learn new trends, or collaborate on projects? Are you interested in a specific sector, topic, or problem? Having a clear goal and interest will help you narrow down your target audience and tailor your communication accordingly.

2 Research potential contacts and events

Once you have your goal and interest in mind, you need to find out who are the relevant people and where are the best places to meet them. You can use online platforms such as LinkedIn, Twitter, or industry-specific forums to search for people who share your interest or work in your desired industry. You can also look for events such as webinars, conferences, or workshops that are related to your topic or sector. These are great opportunities to learn from experts, ask questions, and network with attendees.

3 Reach out with a personalized message

When you find someone you want to connect with, you need to make a good first impression and show that you are genuinely interested in them. You can do this by sending a personalized message that introduces yourself, explains your goal and interest, and expresses your appreciation for their work or contribution. You can also ask for their advice, feedback, or opinion on something relevant to them. Avoid generic or spammy messages that sound like sales pitches or requests for favors.

Al solicitar consejos, comentarios o opiniones a mis contactos, siempre evito mensajes genéricos o de spam que suenen como argumentos de venta o solicitudes de favores. En su lugar, busco ser auténtico y específico en mis comunicaciones, mostrando interés genuino en sus perspectivas y experiencias. Esta aproximación ayuda a construir relaciones sólidas y duraderas, basadas en el respeto mutuo y la colaboración auténtica.

4 Follow up and stay in touch

After you make a connection, you need to follow up and stay in touch with them to build trust and rapport. You can do this by sending a thank-you note, sharing useful resources, commenting on their posts, or inviting them to join your network. You can also suggest a virtual or face-to-face meeting to have a deeper conversation or explore potential collaboration. Remember to be respectful of their time and availability, and don't be pushy or needy.

5 Expand your network through referrals and introductions

One of the best ways to expand your network is to leverage the existing connections you have and ask for referrals and introductions. You can do this by asking your contacts if they know anyone who works in your target industry or shares your interest, and if they can introduce you to them. You can also look for mutual connections on online platforms and ask for an introduction. When you get a referral or an introduction, make sure to thank your contact and explain how you can add value to their network.

Buscar conexiones mutuas en plataformas en línea y solicitar una presentación es una excelente estrategia para expandir mi red profesional. Cuando recibo una recomendación o presentación, siempre me aseguro de expresar mi agradecimiento a mi contacto y de explicar cómo puedo contribuir y agregar valor a su red. Esta práctica demuestra mi compromiso de construir relaciones mutuamente beneficiosas y fortalecer nuestra conexión de una manera significativa.

6 Be generous and helpful

Finally, the most important thing to remember when you network with people from other industries is to be generous and helpful. You need to offer value and support to your contacts, not just ask for favors or information. You can do this by sharing your expertise, insights, or resources, providing feedback or recommendations, or connecting them with other relevant people. By being generous and helpful, you will establish yourself as a valuable and trustworthy professional, and you will attract more people to your network.

Es crucial recordar que al relacionarse con personas de otros sectores, la generosidad y la disposición para servir son fundamentales. Ofrecer valor y apoyo a mis contactos es prioritario; no se trata solo de solicitar favores o información. Puedo lograr esto compartiendo mi experiencia, conocimientos o recursos, brindando comentarios constructivos o recomendaciones, o conectándolos con otras personas relevantes. Al adoptar esta mentalidad de dar antes de recibir, construyo relaciones sólidas y mutuamente beneficiosas que perduran a lo largo del tiempo.

So having a network based on ‘connection-count’ doesn’t really equate to being a good networker. You need to have opportunities to truly connect with your network. So while meaningful networking opportunities are aplenty, how much effort do you have to finding ones that really matters. Join a professional networking peer group that will create and curate those opportunities for you, one that allows you to build not just depth but also breath of experience.
