The part about Reciprocity is usually underplayed but here is the line that divides great networkers from room occupiers. When you engage in a conversation always steer the conversation towards the person you are talking with. Make the conversation about them and their services as this is most peoples comfort zone. By doing so you are scouting out potential new clients and you can follow up at a later time if this is a person of interest. They will remember you as the non-pushy guy who carried on a great conversation and the door should always be open if you networked right. You mentioned the use of business cards I would recommend visiting the HBBA website at www.hbba-wi.org and check out the tips page and read the 10 rules of business cards.

I especially liked your point on thinking like a business owner. Too often, I see people taking a numbers game approach to their job search and getting away from creating a personal value proposition that will resonate with specific employers. I too agree with Brett that Twitter is a phenomenal tool. But it definitely can be overwhelming to get started and to see where the real value is. I have put together a list of steps new users can take when getting started with the tool that will help them create a personal value proposition quickly: http://bit.ly/LS39K. I tried to make it as seamless as possible but I am always looking for suggestions to make it better. Tony, great article. I especially liked your point on thinking like a business owner.
