What to Expect
FAQs for a Successful Networking Experience
1. What should I bring?
Bring plenty of business cards to exchange with new connections. Since the event includes a cash bar and raffles, having cash on hand is recommended. Most importantly, come with a positive attitude and an open mind—being approachable and enthusiastic leaves a lasting impression.
2. What’s the dress code?
Business casual is a popular choice, but ultimately, you should wear attire that reflects your professional image. Dressing in your typical work attire is a great way to represent your business and maintain authenticity.
3. How do I approach someone?
Start with a friendly introduction like, “Hi, I’m [Your Name]. It’s great to meet you! What brings you to this event?” Show genuine interest by asking thoughtful questions about their work, industry trends, or shared experiences. Listen actively, stay authentic, and engage with positivity to stand out.
4. How do I follow up?
After the event, follow up within a few days. A personalized email or LinkedIn connection referencing your conversation adds a thoughtful touch. For example: “I enjoyed our discussion about [specific topic] and would love to connect further.” This reinforces the connection and shows your genuine interest.
5. Who should attend a networking event?
Business After Hours is perfect for professionals across all industries looking to exchange ideas, build connections, and explore collaboration opportunities. It’s also an excellent time to nurture existing relationships—bring a friend, invite a new contact, or connect with a co-worker as you grow your network. By coming together and sharing ideas, we strengthen our community and create opportunities for collective success. After all, as the saying goes, “A rising tide lifts all boats.”
