Networking doesn't have to be cringe or sleazy, and I'm here to show you how. I've been networking since I was 14, starting back in high school, and it's become a core life skill for me. Whether you're looking to get a job, advance in your career, find investors, or attract customers, effective networking is crucial. In this video, I'll share my unique approach to networking and how you can build valuable connections before you even need them. Discover why networking with your ambitious peers can be more beneficial than chasing older executives, and learn the importance of networking for your future self. I'll also cover practical tips on how to introduce yourself as the person you aim to become, follow up without being pushy, and pair new connections to build a robust network. Plus, I'll explain how networking strategies differ for introverts and extroverts and why creating content can be a powerful passive networking tool. ————————— Follow Avni Beacons: ⁠https://beacons.ai/avni_barman⁠ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/avnibarman_ Tiktok: ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@avnibarman_⁠ Twitter: ⁠https://twitter.com/avni_barman⁠ Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4kMrd9jXhkgpaDsJmLazGk Follow Gen She Beacons: ⁠https://beacons.ai/gen.she⁠ Website: ⁠https://www.generationshe.co/⁠ Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/gen.she Tiktok: ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@gen.she⁠ Medium: ⁠https://medium.com/@generationshe⁠ Twitter: ⁠https://twitter.com/gensheinc⁠ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/generation-she
