Networking for new founders (The ultimate guide)
Go from NETWORKING NEWBIE to NAILING IT!
As a new founder, you've likely networked before under the comforting cloak of your former employer's name and reputation. But networking as a brand spanking new business owner throws up a shed load of challenges that can leave you either dreading an upcoming event or wanting to hide in the toilets when you arrive to a room of strangers.
As a new business owner you need to network, you might be experiencing some or all of the following challenges:
- Limited network: Your business "little black book" is full of former colleagues or those in an old sector your business no longer belongs to. This is leading to you missing opportunities for potential collaborations, investment or partnerships.
- No or limited track record of credibility: As you've only just launched (or are pre-launch), you don't yet have an established track record - making it hard to gain credibility and trust with potential contacts and clients.
- Balancing networking with running your business: You're running yourself ragged trying to attend ALL the networking events - this is impacting on your energy, time and capacity to run the day-to-day of your business.
- Crisis of confidence in your new founder role: You get anxious or feel uncomfortable in large social settings - making it hard for you to approach and engage with new people. This is limiting your ability to network effectively and form meaningful new connections.
- Difficulty in self-promotion: You struggle with self-promotion and advocating for yourself effectively during networking conversations, as you may feel uncomfortable with drawing attention to your accomplishments or skills.
