After that it would be the barber shop. This would go under the old-school networking, but I’ve actually found that my best networking tool is the cigar shop. After that it would be the barber shop.

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.
