"I know I need to network, but what if I reeeeeally HATE it?!" 😣

Do you - 
- Hate the small talk? 
- Hate having to find things to say to a stranger? 
- Hate having to talk in a big crowd?

I get it - networking can be be intimidating (especially for introverts!)

🌱Here's what you can do if you HATE networking -

(1) IRL not your thing? 
- Reach out to people you admire and build connections via LinkedIn

(2) Hate big groups?
- Focus on going to small group events, join mentorship programs or industry groups and choose the events where it's more intimate 

(3) Have a wingman 
- Bring an extroverted friend
- They can help warm up the room for you and fill those awkward silences 

(4) Start attracting with your personal brand
- Instead of you always having to put yourself out there
- Create a strong personal brand
- So opportunities and people start coming to you

(5) Stumped on what to say? Focus on asking questions instead.
- Instead of feeling stressed when you run out of topics
- Take the pressure off of yourself
- And ASK QUESTIONS instead
- Be genuinely curious about the person you're talking to  
- Because... people LOVE talking about themselves
