Supersize Your Networking: Article Link

Business networking and building your web presenceNetworking is time consuming- some events and meetings will produce more results than others. Part of your success at a business meeting or networking event is how you prepare, what you have to offer, and that you expect to take away.

I came across this article by Elilzabeth Kraus and thought there were some useful ideas for making sure you’re effective.  A couple of my favorites support your online visibility…! She makes it a point to mention people she meets on her social networks which is a fantastic idea.

The article also reminds us about creating reciprocal links to a business that you feel good about promoting as a resource. These are two great ways to create good SEO for people you meet and create some karma that can help your SEO in return.

And who doesn’t want to boost their SEO?

Learning to Use the Law of Reciprocity: 4 Tips from Ivan Misner

What networkers need to know about the law of reciprocity …tips on what to keep in mind as you learn to use the law of reciprocity in your networking efforts.

4 very important things to remember:

Tip No. 1–Giving means helping others achieve success. What is your plan to contribute to others? How much time and energy can you spare for this? Do you actively seek out opportunities to help people? You could volunteer to help out with something that’s important to someone in your network, offer advice or support in time of need, or even work hard to connect someone to a valuable contact of yours.
