How to Use Networking & Live Events to Grow Your Business

WORK LESS, EARN MORE PODCAST EPISODE #259

In this episode, Gabe Cox and I dive into the power of networking and how to leverage live events effectively to grow your business. Over the years, I’ve learned that going into a networking event with clear objectives is key to making it a worthwhile experience. I talk about how important it is to know what you want to achieve beforehand, whether it’s meeting potential clients, collaborating with other professionals, or simply learning from others in your industry.

We also discuss the critical role of follow-up after an event. It's not just about exchanging business cards—it’s about building relationships that last beyond the conference or meeting. I share some of the methods I’ve used to stay in touch with people and keep those connections alive.

Drawing from our experiences at conferences like ConvertKit's Craft and Commerce, we offer actionable advice on how to prepare for networking events, how to engage meaningfully with others during the event, and how to use tools like business cards, lead magnets, and follow-up emails to stay top of mind. Whether you’re new to networking or looking to refine your approach, this episode is packed with practical tips that can help you maximize your impact and grow your business.


Are you ready to finally take the leap to six-figures?

Let's turn your inconsistent income into consistent $10K+ months. We'll show you how and guide you through the entire process.

Your business (and life!) will never be the same.
