How can I network with confidence?
If you’re feeling nervous about networking, make sure you aren’t putting too much pressure on yourself. In short, you’re just having a chat with a few like-minded business owners about your business and theirs – easy, right?
Set yourself manageable targets – if that’s to speak to one person, then so be it! To keep yourself calm, walk into the room and head straight for the drink station, where you can scan the room, make yourself a drink, and maybe even break the ice with someone right there and then. It’s much easier to talk about the biscuits than business when you’re feeling anxious.

How do I know who I should be talking to?
By researching who will be at your networking meeting ahead of the day, you should have a good idea of who would be a good fit for your business – your ideal audience. It makes sense to speak to people who you think could turn into prospects, as then you’ll start getting a return on the time and money you’re spending on networking!
It’s easy to discount people who don’t look like a natural fit, but the most important thing to remember is that you shouldn’t strike anyone off your list of people to talk to, as you never know who might introduce you to the best client you’ve ever worked with.
