Event Networking FAQ

How many new connections should I aim for at an event?

Quality over quantity is key. Aim for 5-10 meaningful connections rather than 50 superficial ones. Focus on building genuine relationships with potential for future collaboration.

What's the best way to start conversations with strangers?

Ask open-ended questions about their experience at the event, their industry insights, or their thoughts on the speakers. Show genuine interest in their responses.

When should I follow up after meeting someone at an event?

Send a personalized follow-up message within 24-48 hours while the conversation is still fresh. Reference specific details from your discussion to show you were actively listening.

How do I maintain professional relationships after the event?

Stay in touch through valuable content sharing, occasional check-ins, invitations to relevant events, and mutual introductions when appropriate. Consistency is key.
