Matt is dropping another solo episode today, and he is going to be talking about some cool conference hacks that will help you with outreach and making connections. Live events are happening again and we just returned from the Traffic & Conversion Summit. He will be sharing some things that we learned over time about how to be the most effective at these conferences and how to get the most out of them. 

He shares a few hacks about how to connect with people and build our influence around the booth. Whether it be with the speakers, attendees, or exhibitors, we really like to network with as many people as possible and do it in a way where you really build a deep connection. Once you’re done, check out chats with Steve Sims that we mentioned and Michael Trainer as well for more insights into making awesome connections to propel your business.

“You’ll get their email and once again, you have just opened the door. You’ve just kicked in that reciprocation principle, you’ve just given them a reason to reciprocate and you’ve just given them a reason to remember you as well.” - Matt Wolfe

Some Topics We Discussed Include:

• Connecting with everyone at the event, and not just attendees
• Why we, as a sponsor, love connecting with other sponsors!
• How to connect with folks that you might think are unreachable
• How to use photos and videos for outreach
• Exporting your contacts for use in future emails
