EOO: October is for Networking

October is Networking Month! Actually, every day, week, and month holds multiple opportunities to meet new people. Make the most of your time and energy.

  • Find events that are in alignment with your personal and/or professional missions
  • Before committing to events and meetups, check your availability. You do not want to get overscheduled and overwhelmed
  • Reach out to new contacts on LinkedIn. Send a connection request along with a note about where and how you met

To learn more about #EventOutcomeOptimization join my Pre-Event Planning Workshop – aka P.E.P. Talk – on October 6 at 11am PT. Use code “Newsletter” for 20% off.

Individual and team consulting are also available.

Resource: Goal-Setting Simplified on SocialTrust

Deb Coman invited me to join her #SocialTrust Twitter chat and Spaces conversation. We covered:

  • The key to successful goal-setting
  • What stops people from achieving their goals
  • How to consistently work toward your goals

Read the Twitter chat recap and listen to our Twitter Spaces conversation.

Goal of the Week: Social Media Engagement

Make a wish list of 5 to 10 potential prospects, partners, or interviewees. Follow them on LinkedIn – and/or other social media channels. Then spend time commenting on their social media posts, so you get on their radar.
