The networking opportunities and educational potential were tremendous.”

Team members who attended the conference had the chance to interact with other top performers from across the country.

It’s really amazing how many valuable insights you can gain from listening to these dynamic individuals for just a few minutes.”

The Austin Focus’s Director Shares Networking Tips

To make sure that her team members tap into all of the options to connect with new people offered by industry events, Kati provides them with a few simple cues. As she put it, “Industry conferences can be a little intense at times, especially if you’re new to them. I always try to put my associates at ease before a big event and remind them that it’s good to venture outside of their comfort zones.”

Kati begins by encouraging team members to develop a simple and effective elevator pitch. “If you can tell someone in 30 seconds why they should get to know you and your company, meeting new people becomes much simpler,” she added. “It’s not easy, but with practice you can come up with a convincing and brief introductory pitch that gets results.”

Another thing that can be stressful for people is the sheer number of potential contacts. Kati addresses this issue by looking at quality, not quantity. As she said, “It’s much better to make meaningful connections with one or two people than to meet many people without making much of an impact on them.”
