2️⃣ Ask one client for one introduction.
↳ Focus on a meaningful, quality relationship.

4️⃣ Prepare for events in advance.
↳ Talking points make for easier conversations.

5️⃣ Say “yes” to small opportunities.
↳ Panels, podcasts, or articles can open big doors.

7️⃣ Lead with your own style.
↳ Try connecting with other introverts.
