Networking shouldn't be a dirty word, but it is often associated with events filled with aggressive salespeople whipping business cards around like blackjack dealers. Instead of overwhelming attendees and upsetting sponsors, there is a better, a nicer way.

In Networking For Nice People, Dave Delaney, author of the acclaimed book New Business Networking (Pearson Publishing / Que), shares conference-going success stories, strategies for networking effectively, and a highly engaging and entertaining experience for your audience.

Learning objectives: The Three Ups of Nice Networking.

Show Up. Discover how to meet new people during the conference by setting goals, using Active Listening while conversing, and connecting via LinkedIn.

Follow Up. Learn how to follow up effectively after your conference to continue the conversation and determine how to provide value to your new contacts.

Catch Up. Use Dave's original strategies, combining technology and traditional methods, to keep in touch—especially before your next conference, where they will return and meet again.

Connect your attendees and sponsors like never before.
When new relationships are born at your conference, conference-goers become loyal attendees who return each year and tell their friends and colleagues. Networking effectively is a win-win for everyone involved.

Networking For Nice People makes an outstanding opening keynote presentation. It empowers your audience to build new, long-lasting relationships with fellow attendees and sponsors alike.
