This is an Internet forum, so I know we have a lot of introvert types on this board, but people, WE MUST NETWORK. For some, networking comes natural. It's really people out here networking on accident:wow: For others, networking may be more of a task or a job. Regardless, it must be done to advance professional careers, but networking is so much deeper than that.

You can get bytches Networking:banderas: Nothing better than messing with a chic on some "professional" shyt and it slow but surely turning into you smashing. And you wanted to smash the whole time:steviej: That shyt is like the reverse friend zone with an opt out clause



Don't sleep on Internet networking. A few of the Coli ATL brehs put me on some job leads when I first got down here. Shout out to @Warren Moon

It's not enough to get people's contact info; you need to check in every once in a while to keep the lines of communication open and to maintain that contact. I know this is tough for some people, but it must be done. You just can't pop up after 8 months of no contact looking for some type of favor or hook up:rudy: It's etiquette to this shyt.


You might have to do some shyt that might not be fun to you. I know this independent rapper down here that's always trying to get me to come to his shows. I make sure I hit one every ow and then because he know a lot of important people. On some corporate shyt, you might have to go golfing or some shyt. Definitely hit the Christmas parties and volunteer events if you work corporate.

It's not all about you. Sometimes you may not be able to help yourself, but you can link up other people in your network who can help each other. This buys good will from both parties in the future.

I'm trying to get on this wave but being out of the game for awhile it's tough. Some people I haven't talked to in a long was time I try to contact but its tough. I'm not giving up...this is my future it seems so I might as well try to get the right people around me.
