What should you do after a networking event to actually build relationships, get referrals, and grow your business? In this solo episode Faithann Basore breaks down exactly what happens after the networking meeting—and why your success depends on what you do next. From follow-up strategies to one-to-one meetings, this episode will help you turn simple conversations into real opportunities.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

• The 3 biggest networking follow-up mistakes to avoid
• How to follow up without sounding awkward or pushy

Networking doesn’t end when the meeting is over—it’s just getting started. The more intentional and present you are during the event, the easier it becomes to follow up, build trust, and create opportunities afterward. As Faithann shares, listening actively in the room leads to meaningful follow-up conversations later.

Simple strategies Faithann has learned from Nikki Rausch—like clearly stating where you met someone and offering specific times to connect—can dramatically increase your response rate and help you build stronger business relationships.
