Networking…and having fun?

April 17, 2009

The tried and true method to building relationships, networking is approached by many with a sense of dread. But what if you could expand your social (and professional!) circles and have a great time doing it? At LakeFrog, we use the three strategies below to help put some excitement back into making connections:

  1. Pursue Your Passions - For us, it’s sports, but for you it may be something else. Whatever it is, go out and do it at 110%. Other people will see your enjoyment and gravitate towards you.
  2. Organize an Event - Start a book club, a weekly poker match, or a running group. Bring people from different social circles together and enjoy the feeling of community.
  3. Try New Things - A new restaurant, a new route to work, a new approach to your day. Whatever you do, changing it up is the best way to see new things and new people that you may have never noticed.

In Real Estate, a strong and diverse network is a key element of success, and whether built virtually or in the real world, creating your network can be a genuinely enjoyable experience. So get out there and start building! And if you we see you out there, we’ll be sure to give you our card.
