What strategy do you use for networking for business? Okay, seriously, please don’t tell me you don’t have one! This does not have to be difficult. It is as easy as saying to yourself, “Self, today I am going to meet five new people and engage them in a conversation that will end with a call to action.” Wow, you did it!

Of course what we are really seeking here is a bit more formal, like at least write this down and then at the end of the day write down who you met and what is the call to action, hopefully a date and a time to meet for a serious conversation.

Here are a few thoughts for you in structuring a strategy for your networking:

Write down where you go each day in a given week or month ahead of time.

How many people would you reasonably be able to engage in a conversation, even briefly, at each location?

Record all of this information and make this your intention each day as you are out and about.

A few of you might say, well I network on Facebook and twitter from home. This will be addressed in another blog soon and it is really great you network in the social media realm. The networking being discussed here is face-to-face networking. The type of networking which will build your business faster than any other type of networking you may invent.
