Carlos Mormeneoof Biltmore Who’s Who offers 5 Tips of proper online professional networking.
Help Yourself by Helping Others: Networking is reciprocal. "What goes around inevitably comes around," says Mormeneo. "When you help people get a job, they're going to remember you when they hear of a great opportunity that has your name written all over it."
Prepare for Face-to-Face Introductions: Just because your network is developed online doesn't mean relationships stay there. Know what you want from a meeting.Biltmore Who’s Who recommends a brief, prepared introduction for group events. "This way, the individual does not fumble around and miss the opportunity to make a good impression," Mormeneo states.
Market Yourself: Marketing yourself through networking is essential for ongoing career and professional success.
Think Quality not Quantity: Networking isn't about the quantity of contacts you make; it's about the quality of relationships you enjoy. If you want others to open doors for you, open the door to them first. Give before you expect to get, and you will develop a good network.
<!--[if !supportLists]-->The more, the merrier: You should make at least as many contacts online as you have in the "real world." Some will produce for you; many will not. The more contacts you have, the greater the chances that something will pan out in terms of new business.
