Startups success relies on much more than a great idea. Having the right network and fostering deep relationships can lead to new customers, partners and investors. But, networking is much more than simply showing up.

Learn three networking secrets that will transition you from cold-calling to having opportunities knock down your door. Lisa Ann Pinkerton will outline a tested, simple and systematic process for building an engaged network that pay off in the short- and long-term. You will discover:

  • Compelling introductions that leave listeners asking “how do you do that?”
  • Tricks for jumping in and out of conversations
  • Tips for reading body language
  • Knowing when it’s time to leave a conversation
  • Follow up that turns contacts into cash
