March was amazing guys! I hope it was same for you?

I remember being bothered about not attending any event in January and February. It just felt like everything was slow but then you don't pause your journey because your pace is slow. Right?

March came and it was from one event to the other. Most of these events were networking events, An opportunity to meet new people, increase my circle, market my services and learn things i wasn't aware of.

Can't believe i'm actively networking, Like i dress up to go out, It's beautiful how growth happens without making so much noise. I have met amazing offline and online who have inspired, referred or even enquired of my service because i stepped out of my comfort zone to meet new people.

Why should you network?

Your amazing talent and vision won't bring itself to life and you need people as allies in your journey to greatness. People who can show you the path to success through their stories

While networking you get to meet :

  • People that will mention your name in rooms of opportunities
  • People that will pay for your service
  • People who will collaborate with you to bring great ideas to life and encourage each other
  • Likeminded people who will inspire you and be inspired by you as well.

There is no loss in networking, everything is a win depending on how you see things.

Things to do when you get to an event:

  • Be approachable, Have a soft appearance/expression that can draw people in
  • Start talking with someone, your neighbour or someone you feel a bit connected with
  • Ask a question if you have one, This will draw attention to you
  • After the event walk up to speakers you resonated with or people you feel fit into your ideal clients persona and spark up a conversation. Tell them what you do too and get a contact too.
  • Don't rush to leave the event.
  • Follow up after the event

The more you do this you are giving more people an opportunity to meet you and you are giving yourself an opportunity to be known and remembered by more people.

Network online and offline intentionally as we move into the new month and watch your courage build up.

If you are looking for events, Follow MC's and notable persons that have speaking gigs often to get more updates on new events, ask people in your circle, actively look out for events online E.g Event Hubs.

Welcome to April!

Don't hesitate to change approaches that aren't bringing you result.

Try to build a life outside social media. Meet people for real-life activities outside in the sun. Make eye contact with strangers and become friends. Form friendships that lead to relationships. Attend parties and go to weddings and other important social events. Or you will wake one day, and twenty years have passed. Your juniors are now married with children and own their own businesses. And all you have in your life are selfies, reels, followers and likes. Don't be an influencer online and have no influence offline. Find some balance. As you trend online, try to blend offline! Thank you so much Joy!! I was blessed reading this piece!
