After every live event I attend, I always get people asking me ‘Was it worth it?’
I always answer ‘Yes!’
If you go to these events, you need to remember, it is a ‘Network Marketing Event’. Which means you need to ‘Network’ with people. Talk to as many people as you can. Everybody in attendance is there for the same reason you are… to meet new people, learn some new things and mastermind with the gurus and attendees alike.
I recently attended a live event, which just so happened to be on a Caribbean cruise ship! It was a five day cruise, with two days of conference. The conference days were split in half. Half the day was presentation, while with the other half, we split into smaller groups of 5 or 6 and had an hour to sit down and talk with each speaker. This was the opportunity of a lifetime. Whatever questions you had, they will answer. On the other days, when there were not any presentations, we all just hung out on the ship, in the Cayman Islands and in Cozumel, Mexico. This was also a great time to mastermind, just get to know each other and make new friends.
Now, not every event is going to be like this one. Most will be one or two day events and will be in large groups. This doesn’t mean that you just sit and take notes and don’t mingle with everybody. Get out there and make some new connections.
Bring some nice business cards and hand them out to people you talk to – don’t go around giving away your business cards to people you haven’t connected with. It’s just a waste of cards and people won’t know or care who you are.
Try to talk to the speakers or the owners of the company. If it is a large event, they’ll be pretty busy, but you should still make an effort to say ‘Hi’.
I learn something new from every event that I attend. Whether it’s some new information about the company that I’m with, a new marketing nugget, a new contact and I always try to make a new friend. Remember, these are all like-minded people that most likely paid to be there. Stay in contact with your new friends and help each other out where you can.
Live events are great places to make some new videos. Ask some of the speakers, gurus or company owners to make a short 2 – 3 minute video with you… somebody will say yes! And get lots of pictures of yourself at the event and with your new friends.
Yes. Attend the next live marketing event you have coming up. Do whatever you can to make it there. Take notes, meet some new people, make some new friends, get some pictures, make some videos, and don’t forget to have some fun!
Maybe I’ll see you at an upcoming event!
