Success After 5

Remember the Dolly Parton song "Workin' 9-5, what a way to make a livin'"? Well I hate to say Dolly is wrong, but she was!

If you own your own business or work on a commision the best time to work comes after 5pm. I am talking about attending networking events. A networking event is any gathering of business people. The purpose of these gatherings is to meet others and exhange business cards. Here are 7 pointers on taking this strategy to the next level.

  • Know who you want to meet
  • Understand that networking is a process
  • Go to give, not to take
  • Have a goal for each event
  • Take notes
  • Follow-up
