Why you might want to buy this book

If any of the examples below sound familiar, this book can help you:

• The thought of going to networking events fills you with dread. If only you had the courage to go along it might be quite useful and good for you and your business. (you might even enjoy it too)
• You look around the room and see a sea of faces but don’t know who to talk to or what to say. This gets in the way of the main reason that you went to the event which was to talk to people.
• It’s great to catch up with people you know at networking events but you know you should really start to connect and build relationships with people you don’t know but you don’t have the confidence to do that. It would be good if those initial steps didn’t seem so scary.
• You get introduced to lots of people whilst networking but never quite know what to say or how to say it. It would be really nice if you could network effectively and let people know what you and your company do in a way that they would find useful.
• You’re out and about at a lot of networking events and feeling like you are really “being noticed”. Weirdly though, nothing seems to be coming out of it and you are wondering why.
• You’ve heard people talk about networking via social media but don’t really know how to do that, even though it sounds like it might be a good idea.

So whether you would like to reduce stress, increase confidence, gain greater visibility and understanding, form more and better professional relationships or simply just something have to show from your networking activities, this book can help you to achieve that by becoming a better networker. This in turn can then result in a better return on the time you invest whilst networking, bringing better personal and business relationships and ultimately more business which, of course, is probably the main reason for going networking in the first place!
