2012-02-12 15:18:48 - Networking for Business is more than handing someone your business card or accepting an online invitation to connect. Find out what it’s really about and learn the tools & tips that will skyrocket your networking success.

Louisville, Kentucky is the place to be February 23, 2012. Online Marketing Pros, an education-based company in Louisville, is hosting a workshop for professionals to learn better ways to networking for business.

Beyond the badge, the introduction, the referral request is the art of networking for business. Building long-term relationships so that your network is with you next year, the year after and many years after that.

There are 3 types of business networkers:

An effective networker is someone who never has to worry about where their next client is coming from: their funnel is always full.

A successful networker is someone who uses their time to always produce positive results.

A passionate networker lives their life by Zig Ziglar's credo, "You'll get anything you

want in life by helping enough other people get what they want."

This workshop will focus on all three types, providing tips and techniques for each one.

What you get:

• The tools necessary to make your networking time more effective.
• Face-to-face tactics to ensure that introducing yourself and meeting someone new is more successful.
• Real-time relationship-building skills that make your words more powerful.
• Online tools that increase your presence, gain new meetings, and solidify strategic relationships

What you won’t get:

• The same old song-and-dance about networking.
• A training manual that sits on the shelf.
• Basic obvious things like where to wear your name badge or you need to have a profile.
• Messages like, "Just get out there and mingle." "Pass out and gather as many cards as you can." "Post everything everywhere." "Friend and Link with EVERYONE."

To be held at the IEC Building (Independent Electrical Contractors association), all attendees can expect to participate in hands-on activities designed to help you retain what you learn so that when you attend your next event - that evening, the next morning, the next afternoon - you will be able to put to use all that you have learned.
