1. Introduction to the Importance of Networking

Networking is the practice of exchanging news or information and making contact with other

peoples, groups or institutions. Networking is usually happens with others who have same

interests in similar area. Networking is using and developing contacts made in business with

the purposes beyond the reason to the initial contact. For example, a sales person asks his

customer about his friends’ name who might be interested with his product. An entrepreneur

should have the ability to network. Networking is one of the most effective methods to get in

to the business.

To be a good networker you must:

1.1. Keep in touch with the contacts

Take some time to know your contacts well, not only in business basis but also on social

life.

1.2. Be a good listener

Introverts are sometimes better in networking than extroverts, because a good networker

don’t have to be always talking about himself or herself, which makes him or her better

listeners. As a networker, effective listening is a must have skill.

1.3. A truthful desire to help others

Help other peoples without expecting anything in return. When we help others to get

what they want, it will make them remember you when you need something.

1.4. Persistence and patience

Don’t easily give up. Sadly not many people possess those traits. The key to be

successful in networking is you must follow up. It is how you make others trust you by

do something that you say you will work on. The good things are that since not many

people are doing this, you can survive by doing this.

1.5. Be enthusiastic

You must enthusiastic with your products, about yourself, services that you provided and

the brand that you represent.
