Re: How do you follow up with networking contacts?
I like Lanel's suggestion.. honestly, there are some people that you meet that you know you aren't going to work with. Those/and everyone, I send a short generic note like the one mentioned about..
Others, there might be potential and I might personalize theirs a bit more - especially if I had and enjoyed a conversation with them.
Trying to sell is really important. I met with someone last night that I met at a networking event.. just to learn about each others business.. It was a great conversation. We found out we had a lot in common and it may or may not result in business. But hopefully she will think of me when she talks to someone who might need a VA, even if its not her.
