You have found the home of the conference with a stack of business cards from people you've met. And now? Do not let it sit in the corner of his office until next year. It is time to begin to develop and build relationships with members of the newly added network. A quick "Pleased to meet you" or "It was great to see you" e-mail allows you to start in the right direction with the development of a relationship with your contact.

The next step is to change your donations accent. What people mean in their network need? Information? Connections? If you give something to someone, they will usually give you more than what you gave him / her according to the law of reciprocity. Give first positions as a resource.

What you have to give? I Try 4: Information, presentations, invitations, and interaction.

Information - Share relevant and useful to a person on the network every day information. You may have read an article or blog that could be important for the work of this person. The exchange of relevant information is one of the easiest ways to let a colleague you think its means. This can lead to further conversation on the subject that sent him fair and allows an opportunity to advance the relationship.

Introductions - Introduce two people in your group who do not know each other but have a common interest (which may be of interest to professional or personal interest). If you do not feel comfortable with the presentation, ask each person if they would like to be entered. Most likely they would, as many are looking to meet other people with common interests and expand their networks.

Invitations - If you sponsor an event / seminar or go to an event that you do enjoy a colleague invites you - especially if the event is relevant to your business or industry. Make it a win-win, where your partner can acquire new knowledge or contacts through you.

Interactions - Recognize birthdays and other special days of network members with a card, e-mail or a phone call. The social media sites like LinkedIn and Facebook, it is easy to get, and a small gesture of kindness go a long way to strengthen your network.

You say you do not have the time to connect? If you are up to 1 person per day should only take 10-15 minutes. And finally, if you invest in your network, your network will grow. You will experience a better relationship, and the top of the minds of people who are important to you in achieving your goals remain.

Only 1% of all people to take the next step in developing your network and establish a connection - you are part of 1%?
