Eventless Business Networking - How to do it without attending events.

I have heard from more than a handful of people that they don't do more business networking because they don't like attending events. Let me say that business mixers, and business networking events are not for everyone, and in fact, even for people that like them they are not where the most productive networking gets done. Business networking events are actually the beginning of a process. That process starts with having the opportunity to meet people with whom you can network. So, if you have other ways to meet people without going to a business networking event you can accomplish your goals without attending a massive number of events.

One way to do that is to be actively involved in a quality business social network. If you make a commitment to review the profile of at least one person a day and set up a time to have coffee with them you will meet and get to know an average of 20-30 new people every month, and you'll be doing it in a much more comfortable environment than you find at business networking events. Don't assume that because you're not a "business networking" party animal that you cannot be effective and building quality relationships with the people around you. Remember, business networking is about relationship building, and that comes from taking a sincere interest in other people. If you can do that it doesn't have to start at a business networking event.
