I think a mistake people make is only networking with people who are at the same level as them or in the same industry. Sometimes the best connections can be made with people outside of your usual circle.
In my opinion, the biggest mistake people make in networking is not following up after the initial introduction or meeting. It’s important to maintain that connection and build a relationship over time.
I agree, but I also think people can come across as insincere when they only network for personal gain. Networking should be about creating mutually beneficial relationships, not just about what you can get out of it.
Another mistake I see often is people not doing their research before networking. It’s important to know who you’re talking to and what their interests and goals are, so you can make a meaningful connection.
One mistake I see is people being too aggressive or pushy in their networking. It’s important to be genuine and build rapport, not just try to sell yourself or your business.
