A recent conversation sparked me to talk about how to network appropriately. I have made many connections here through #Networking events. One of the things I have seen time and time again is that people treat networking events like job fairs.  For me, networking events are about building and fostering long-term #ProfessionalRelationships, learning from each other, gaining new insight, and keeping up with #IndustryTrends. Ask the right questions and pick their brains! If you need a job, ask for advice. People are more open to offering advice than to refer you to a role where they work, which comes with time and fostering those relationships because referring you puts their reputation at stake. People are likelier to refer you after they know you than to do it straight out of the gate. Networking is crucial to any long-term #ProfessionalGrowth, so I attend as many networking events as possible to learn, foster new and existing relationships, and grow together. See you at the next networking event!

What do you think takes priority: Cheap price Or High Quality with guaranteed Delivery? Please feel free to let me know the comment section below. So, that being said in my view; Market research is always a good thing. Yesterday (Wednesday), I attended the Loughborough Job Fair at the Town Hall. There were number of exhibitors, however, most of the stands didn't have that much in terms of giveaways. Plus, most of the Tablecloths weren't branded either! However, when I spoke with a a few exhibitors, during conversation, I offered my services & boom business cards exchanged, and enquiries in the bag! Why? Because the exhibitors I spoke with said they just went on the Internet and received and I quote "cheap tat that didn't portray professionalism"! So, how can I help you your business & how am I different?? Answer = By providing you the right AND High Quality promotional products (including giveaways & all types of clothing too + much more); all branded up with your logo. You have to have the right level of investment for branding. It's not cheap! In turn, all this will help your business with more engagement with your target audience & return on investment. Plus, if I say I will get done, it gets done. I do deliver on my word! So, what are you waiting for?? Contact Matt at Recognition Express.

What conferences are you and your team attending this year? Conferences serve as important platforms for healthcare businesses to learn, network, showcase their expertise, and stay on top of industry trends and developments. During COVID, several companies cut out conferences and never returned but they can still offer up opportunities for your organization. See below my top 5 reasons your organization should be at industry conferences ⬇️ Networking: Conferences provide opportunities for healthcare professionals and businesses to connect with potential partners, clients, investors, and experts in the field. Knowledge Sharing: Conferences often feature keynote speakers, panels, workshops, and presentations. These sessions can keep businesses updated on industry developments and help them stay competitive. Market Research: Conferences offer healthcare businesses a chance to learn about the latest products, technologies, and services available in the market. Brand Visibility: Participating in conferences can increase the visibility and credibility of businesses within the industry. Recruitment: Conferences attract a diverse range of healthcare professionals, including potential employees. Businesses can use conferences as opportunities to recruit top talent, whether through job postings, networking events, or career fairs. Why does your organization prioritize conferences? Or have you cut them out entirely? #conference #marketingconference #healthcareconference

Transitioning from military service to civilian life can be a challenging journey, but utilizing business cards can make a significant impact during this crucial period. 🌟 Business cards serve as powerful tools to network, showcase your skills, and leave a lasting impression on potential employers or business partners. Whether you're attending job fairs, networking events, or interviews, having a well-designed business card can set you apart from the crowd and help you make meaningful connections. Slip a few into your wallet and dont be shy to hand them out to potential contacts. Make sure they have the following on them. 1. Name 2. Contact information including phone number, Professional email (not your military or school email), LinkedIn URL, website/portfolio link if you have one. 3. Remember design wise its a reflection of your personality, desired industry, and personal taste. 4. If possible see about doing a QR code on the back linked to your LinkedIn account. As you navigate the transition process, consider investing in professional business cards that highlight your military experience, skills, and contact information. These cards can serve as a tangible reminder of your capabilities and expertise, making it easier for others to connect with you and explore potential career opportunities. Remember, a small investment in business cards today can lead to significant opportunities tomorrow. Make sure to include them in your transition strategy and make the most out of every networking opportunity! 🚀 #MilitaryTransition #Networking #BusinessCards #TransitionSuccess
