This is Steveer Robbins. Welcome to the Get It Done Guys quick and dirty tips to work less and do more.

Today's episode is part two of networking for new college grads. In part one, we learned about why

networking is super important. We covered where to meet people with similar interests and how to

start building a connection once you've met. Today, we're all about building an even stronger foundation.

When you attend a conference or a presentation where you meet a lot of new people, you need

to keep them sorted out in your brain.

Collecting their business cards and writing what's memorable on the back won't always

quite do it.

If you're going to make a new friend, take pictures together, because it's always

a fine idea to remember what they look like, and your smartphone can help. If you're at a

conference that has name tags, take a selfie together with your new friend, with your name tags

visible, and voila, you have an instant reminder. If there aren't name tags, take a selfie holding

up your business cards so that

the business cards are in plain view, and now you have picture and contact information in one

simple image. And even though you're using technology, the dynamic between you and the other

person is, we're in this, this picture, that is, ha ha, together. Not many people do this yet.

And when I've asked people to take the selfie, they have always liked the idea, and

they just go for it immediately.

If you've had good rapport, ask for the selfie.

Send them a copy if they want one.

You'll remember each other better, and you'll even have a picture that you can paste

into your respective address book entries so you can remember what you each look like
