In Real Life: Connecting With People in a Gadget Crazed World

There is more to creating business relationships than a “like”, “link”, “share” or “follow”. While the popular social media tools can make it seem like we have countless friends and business associates, it is real human engagement that leads to opportunity. This program is designed as an opening keynote and will bring the audience focus back to the basics on establishing connections that will lead to more success in business, sales, and life. Make your event a human laboratory for connecting.

Learning Objectives:

• Learn how to make stronger business connections that will lead to opportunities
• How to combine in-person networking and social media
• Gain clarity in cultivating relationships and how to ask for referrals
• Discover why your elevator pitch is not helping you network
• How to get other in your company to work together to build your business brand
