Let’s talk about a trap I see way too many lawyers fall into: networking without a purpose.

If you've ever walked out of an event feeling like you did something but still ended up with no real business to show for it, then this episode is for you. It's not that you're doing it wrong, it's that you're probably doing it without a plan. And that’s what I call vanity networking.

In this week’s episode of Crushing Chaos With Law Firm Mentor, I break down what vanity networking actually looks like, why it doesn’t get results, and most importantly, how to network like a real business owner with a real strategy.

Listen now and learn:

• The biggest mistake lawyers make when they network (and how to avoid it)
• How to walk into any event with a simple, effective plan
• Who you should actually be talking to (hint: not just other lawyers)
• The one thing most people forget to do after events that kills their ROI
• How to follow up without it feeling awkward or forced

Networking doesn’t have to be a waste of time, and it definitely doesn’t have to be awkward. When you show up with intention, the results will follow.

Tune in now for more.
