A recent leadership conference presented the Dash Marketing team with a range of educational opportunities and networking possibilities.

It was truly an experience to remember, and we’re all looking forward to the next big business gathering.”

The firm’s associates are frequently provided with dynamic travel opportunities such as this. “We enjoy educational seminars and conferences regularly, and we also give our team members chances to attend corporate retreats and other relaxing getaways.

Dash Marketing’s Director of Operations Shares Tips for Networking Like a Pro

Industry events like the leadership conference recently attended by the Dash Marketing team represent unrivaled opportunities for making beneficial professional connections. However, the firm’s leaders also understand that these events can be a bit intimidating. “Sometimes you feel like there isn’t enough time during a conference to attend all the sessions and speeches you want to without missing out on something,” added the director. “That makes it doubly hard to network effectively as well. Especially for the uninitiated, industry conferences can be overwhelming.”

The first thing Dasha reminds her team to do is to research the attendees. “You have to do your homework before the conference gets underway,” she stated. “That way, you have a plan of action before the speeches and sessions start to take over everyone’s itineraries. I encourage my team members to plan out what they want to say and think through how they might offer help to their intended contacts, either right away or in the future.”

It’s also important to avoid dismissing a potential contact just because of title. As Dasha explained, “You might meet someone who is a clerk or other lower-level employee, but he or she might have valuable connections or specific knowledge that you wouldn’t be able to learn from anyone else. There is value in every type of contact, whether it’s apparent at the moment or not.”

As with all learning subjects at the firm, Dasha emphasizes growth in every circumstance, “I always share a few tips with my team before traveling to a big industry event to make sure they’re ready and feel confident in their interactions.”
