Product Description

Need help to expand your business perspectives? Find employment? Make contact with that one person that can open doors for you? Are you connecting with the right people?

'I'm at a Networking Event--Now What???' illustrates that today's social networking environments practically demand that you have at least some knowledge of effective networking practices in order to achieve the results most of us are looking for.

Through this book, you will learn how to make quality connections, cultivate relationships, expand your circle of influence through networking events, and create good "social capital." You'll also find information on networking tools and technology that will promote new contacts and connections.

For some, this book will serve solely as a reminder, but for many, it will offer new valuable insights on what to do, and just as importantly, what not to do while you're out there working hard to maintain good standing within your social networks (on-line or otherwise), and striving to grow and nurture your own valuable social capital. You'll also learn why you might want to consider becoming a "pay it forward" focused person, as well as how to be more memorable. By the end of the book, you should feel empowered to take matters into your own hands and approach networking with a plan to achieve your goals.

Best little how-to I've read in a long time
I just finished reading "I'm at a Networking Event - Now What?" and I have to say, wow, what a book. I network a lot anyway but this little gem showed me how to network better.

Now I know what to do when someone tells me what they are looking for and how I can help them. Because paying it forward is what life is all about now.

If you're a job seeker and you're struggling with social anxiety to enter a room of strangers, read Sandy Jones-Kaminski's terrific book to turn them into your new best friends and allies.

I'd write a longer review but I have an event to go to so I can practice what I learned!
