NETWORKING OPPORTUNITIES

 

Professional organizations offer the opportunity to network with specific industry trade groups.  Decision makers from these organizations are usually in attendance at their meetings.  Participants are able to meet decision makers, increase sales productivity, and reduce the number of cold calls.

Check the area chambers of commerce for additional meetings.  Chamber meetings give the benefit of networking with businesses in a given geographic area.  You also have the opportunity to network with the owners and managers on a social level.
