Best Practices for Virtual Networking Events
Think virtual networking can't match the real thing? Think again!
In this fun (if not slightly controversial) episode of Powerful Women Rising, we're busting myths and setting the record straight about the power of virtual networking. Discover how digital meet-ups can indeed foster genuine relationships and offer surprising advantages over traditional face-to-face events.
I'll guide you through identifying the best virtual networking events tailored to your needs, making memorable first impressions (hint: ditch the virtual background!), and forging real connections that last. Plus, I'll share expert tips on effective follow-ups that keep the conversation going long after the event has ended (without being a salesly weirdo).
Whether you're a seasoned virtual networker or just starting out, this episode is packed with actionable insights to help you navigate online networking platforms with ease and confidence.
Join us at the next Powerful Women Rising Virtual Speed Networking Event to put these tips into action in a fun, judgment-free setting: https://www.eventbrite.com/o/powerful-women-rising-llc-68529722443
