The Do's and Don'ts of Networking | E112 Dan Brodsky - The Struggle is Real: Pursue Financial Independence While Enjoying the Present

Today we are concluding our series on how to level up your professional network. We’ve learned easy ways to find in-person networking events, how to host an easy yet effective networking party, the best practices for virtual networking, and how to make connections at the next business conference you attend.

With all of this knowledge, you’ve been busy meeting new people. But we don’t want the payoff from all of this hard work to disappear by this time next year.

We need to make sure to stay on top of and continue to strengthen these relationships. We need a process and that’s what we are going to be talking about in today’s episode.

This is a replay from my friend Dan Brodsky podcast, Career Focus. Dan invited me on his show to discuss networking and honestly, we geeked out hard. Come on, what did you expect from me?

Dan and I both shared our process for organizing our key professional contacts and the system we use to remind ourselves when an important relationship has gone too long without some attention.

I also share a lot of other networking tips, many of which I’ve shared throughout this series, which is why I feel like this is a perfect capstone episode to the series. I want to make sure we reinforce what we’ve learned over the last month.

Also, go give Dan and his show some love. Career Focus is a new podcast that launched in July and we have very similar missions to equip young professionals with the skills they need to succeed in their careers. If you’re looking for more content like that, go follow Career Focus in your podcast player.

That’s enough from me. I hope you enjoy my conversation with a former St. Louisian now turned Austinite…Dan Brodsky.
