In-person conferences were one of the best ways to interact and create lasting relationships through networking then Covid-19 happened. There's been such a lull in traveling and having that face-to-face networking that it's a void that definitely needs to be filled. There is a  huge appreciation for these in-person conferences and events. You just can't get on that same level with somebody through a Zoom call or through a Google meet. There are experiences that happen at trade shows, at events, dinners, drinks, all that sort of stuff that happens and the memories that are made. And these are the key elements to building a long-term relationship with a potential client, and that's something that has been missed over the last couple of years. In this episode, we're going to dive into in-person conference networking and some of the things that you need to do to prepare yourself for that upcoming conference.
