show moreOn this episode listen to Sarah talk about how you can use technology to make true, real-life connections with people even if they start out online. The last few years have made it necessary to do a lot of connecting and networking on the internet, but what do we do now that things have started to open back up and everyone wants a break from their screens?
Sarah is giving examples from her own networking adventures as someone who identifies as an introvert.
Sarah’s Tips to Tame the Networking Overwhelm:
* Call it something else
* Lots of people are intimidated by the term ‘networking’ and picture stiff suits, awkward conversation and stilted small-talk. Get out of your head by calling it something more fun!
* If you still just aren’t able to meet in person, check out our episode with Rebecca Tasetano about how to make hybrid and online events more engaging
* https://www.spreaker.com/episode/49285325
* Turn to people you already knew in real life to connect you with others who could be interested in your organization’s cause
* Use Meet-up (https://www.meetup.com)
* An online platform to connect with groups who are aligned with your nonprofit’s mission and then meet up in person
* Invite connections on LinkedIn/Instagram/Facebook to coffee
* You can do this in person or virtually
* Even virtual coffee dates can be helpful as you’re able to directly connect with one individual rather than speaking generally to large audiences on your social channels
How do you nurture your online communities into real-life connections?
