Session: Energize Your Networking Attitude!
to Market Your Business and Yourself in 5 Easy Steps!

So what is networking any way? Networking is a common used word in today’s market place.

However, the true concept of networking often eludes most working women. Networking is an activity, a mindset and a skill, to meet and build relationships with people. Networking can happen anywhere and is a friendly, low key and essential function in our complex society. So it is a skill worth developing and one you should not be intimidated by.

The key to networking is to understand one basic principle…it’s not about me. Get yourself out of your own way and you are one step closer to developing a winning attitude. So do any of these apply to you?

- Are you getting the results you want from your current networking activities?
- Are you meeting the right kinds of people to grow your business?
- Have you missed opportunities to network with others because you were crippled by fear or didn’t know how to start a conversation?
- Have you been too busy to network lately?
- Do you have a stack of business cards that you don’t know what to do with?
- How many relationships have your networking activities created for you in the past year?

Falling into a networking rut or being afraid to network is common. But the solutions to energizing your networking attitude and results are as simple as 5 easy steps you can do every day!
