Ask for business cards and have a stack of business cards for yourself at hand as well. What separates a good networker from an average one is the ability to follow up. I finally had a chance to sit down and read your book over the holiday. 411 Look Up 411.ca 411 Look Up 411.ca Keep in touch.

It’s like attaching a business card to every e-mail you send. For Example: “Follow up to our conference call” or “Needing Information on Computer Disposal Policy” Avoid blank subject lines or overly general subjects.They are more likely to be ignored or overlooked when the recipient’s in-box has 100 new messages.

I think Tasks is one of Outlooks best-kept secrets, but it shouldnt be and is a great way to follow up on items. If I send an email to a co-worker requesting information, I immediately drag it from my Sent items to my Tasks, set a reminder to follow up and write in the Subject line "Did I get this information". Excellent material!

I knew starting up company is not a peace of cafe but did not realize I would have needed so much money. People want flashy premises, business cards etc. They should focus on spending their limited budgets only on things that will generate them business. I guess you are right. We have to be realistic about it.

If your spouse is unemployed it becomes even more important for them to go and bring business cards. I wouldn't suggest being aggressive about it, but since it is a work party, inevitably talk about work will come up.

Doesn’t have an office and most of the time doesn’t have business cards either (the new dial tone being twitter , of course). I did a lot of trial and error but in the end I come up with quite a nice setup. Our work is less and less tied up to a physical location. For a digital nomad the world is the office. And why?&#.
