41 | Six New Networking Tips for Fellow Introverts
Today we’re talking about a few of my best networking tips for introverts, or really anybody who doesn't love networking events.As an introvert myself, networking meetings are probably my least favorite kind of marketing, but I make myself go because I really do think they’re effective, and we’ll talk about why in just a moment.By and large I think that most acupuncturists - not all but most - consider themselves introverts. Originally I came up with these tips to put into practice for myself. Because I know that networking is an incredibly effective marketing avenue, and I do think it's worth my time and my energy, but I am the queen of responding “yes” to a networking event invitation, and then thinking up flimsy reasons not to attend them at the last moment. 😬And in the seven years that I’ve been teaching marketing to other acupuncturists, many of my students and 1:1 clients have also let me know that they often feel the same way, AND that these tips are very effective.So let's dive in!
