If you don’t have specific people in mind, then check local professional networking groups or organizations that help match people with mentors. If you’re wondering how to ask someone to be your mentor, ask them in person if they live locally, or ask via email or phone if they live a significant distance away from you. Define success.

Networking can be a scary word can’t it? At the start of my career aged just 21, I had no real grasp of what networking was, nor was I interested in finding out. Now, just 5 years on, I have come such a long way and networking has been a huge part of my journey and contributed to my success. Networking can mean many things.

Developing a solid plan for marketing and networking takes work, doesn’t it? Mark your calendar to follow up with a brief email no more than one week following your meeting. Don’t make the email too lengthy or too mushy; make it brief, but make it clear. Your next follow-up email should be maybe 7-10 days later.
