I've been networking!!!

I have another hat I wear for a few hours a week - I also work for the Worthing Chamber of Commerce, we had a huge networking event this week, I was there doing the signing in as normal.

Now I would usually run a mile after I have finished my tasks, networking is NOT my idea of fun and I find it incredibly hard. However today I was aware of rooftop number 4 needing my attention so I thought here goes - bull, horns and grab. And grab I did, I made a couple of fantastic contacts for my business which is all you can wish for from these events.

I was soooo chuffed that I had faced my demons and went for it. It certainly helped that I had pinched a great marketing idea from a colleague (thanks Sam from balloon wrap!) and presented my business cards in a little bag with 2 everton mints, that went down really well and wasa great ice breaker.

So now I need to make sure I follow those leads up, and then onto the next challenge.

Bring it on !!!!!!!!!!
