When you think of networking, what do you picture in your mind?
For a lot of people, it means going to networking events or meeting people for coffee. When I had my first company in 2011 it did to me too. But then time got short, seeing the same people over and over got frustrating and eventually, I got burnt out. This time around, I am doing things a lot differently in my business. I am networking online. Exclusively online and my results have been fantastic.
Welcome to episode 046 of Business Networking By Design where today I will be talking about how you can pivot your in-person networking strategy so that you can still network effectively online while you are in lockdown.

The world is going through some extraordinary times at the moment and this episode is a rollercoaster of emotion for me.
Like me, you probably check the news every day, you have had to turn your routine completely upside down and what’s more, we are all being told to practice social distancing if we are not on lockdown already. So how can you possibly network and grow your business in a time of such turmoil?
Well, if you don’t then in a few months' time you may not have a business to come back to. Welcome to episode 043 of Business Networking By Design where today I will be talking about 5 steps to getting back on track with building your business network whilst everyone else is distracted and afraid.
