Adding people on LinkedIn is not networking 👇

Comment MTF2026 to get your tickets!! 

Here's what most people do after an event:
Connect on LinkedIn. 
Post a selfie with a lanyard. 
Awkwardly like each other's posts for three years and never speak again.
follow-up
Here's what actual networking looks like:

Take quick notes on the people you meet so your follow-up feels personal
Send a message within 24 hours
Reference something specific from your conversation
Follow through on anything you half-promised to send

That's how a conversation becomes a relationship.

But the most important part: stop thinking about what you can get. 
Ask yourself how you can actually help this person.
Be genuinely useful to others and it comes back to you.

MTF2026 is your next opportunity to do this right 👇
