19 Tips to Rev Up Your Business Networking

Posted on 30. Oct, 2007 by Nic in Business Articles

This week, I’m pointing you in the direction of Dean Hua’s blog which is truly a good place to start if you want to read and read some more.

I’ve known him for a while now (since our days of online networking in 2004) and he has always struck me as a very thoughtful and thought-provoking friend who is not shy about calling a cangkul a cangkul.

Dean does a lot of stuff and I am often impressed where he finds the time to do all that he sets out to do (I can hardly find time for myself, what more go online and schmooze.)

I can be quite picky too about people I connect with, having learnt the hard way on Ryze. After a while it got tiresome having all and sundry as one’s friends. I’d rather have quality over quantity. This I found out after about a year or so on Ryze.

So if you are on Xing or Facebook or whichever biz/social site that’s in vogue now, make sure you read Dean’s blog post on “Online Business Networking Best Practices for Xing”.

It will give you an idea of what you should do and what you should not do. I learnt lots too and I can assure you Dean’s post is of such good value that you should bookmark it. Make it your mantra for your next networking foray.

And if you have your 2 cents to add, his Comments section is always waiting.
