To take action will require setting networking goals, being an initiator, and managing and tracking your relationships.
- List realistic goals you can reach out to and initiate contact with others. We suggest a personal form of contact, such as face to face, FaceTime, or a call, rather than texting or emailing.
- Everyone feels good about people remembering them and reaching out…especially when there are no strings and it is just to say hello and catch up. This shows you care and are interested. Were you ever upset when someone just reached out to you to say hi? Go ahead! Not only will you make their day, but yours too!
You can keep track of all this in PRSIM by creating “category tags” and setting “follow ups”. Please see the Resources Tab if you need help with this.
*Make it a practice to come away from each interaction discovering something new about them and make sure to enter it into your notes in their contact information.
REMEMBER the importance is to set-up a new follow-up after every engagement or interaction. Following up shows you:
- Are interested.
- Are organized.
- Do what you say you will do.
