6 Tips to Widen Your Professional Network

4.Hand over cards

If you wish to come across as a serious professional then don’t rely on oral communication only. People talk and people forget, but if they store a business card that you have handed over to them, then they are sure to remember you and your business. Also, see to it that your business card contains your contact details and name but doesn’t look too messy and gives a sophisticated vibe.

5.Attend events related to your field of business

Make sure you keep an eye out for events, conferences, seminars, functions, fairs and such other gatherings happening that are related to what you do. Attend them to interact with professionals and PR people from companies that you are interested to have in your professional network.

6.Tell friends and family to help you

This should be the first thing you do when you feel the need to widen your professional network. Friends and family help a good deal in bringing in business. Talk to them about spreading the word among people they know regarding your venture.
