If you will have a chance to make a 60-second pitch (or perhaps even a longer one) make sure you’re well prepared in advance. Decide what you’re going to say (including your two sentence summing up) and then make sure you can fit it comfortably into the time without having too much

Drop Shipping - An Entrepreneur's Dream or a Fool's Nightmare?

But what if you could become a successful online retailer without having to worry about those problems?The answer is that

Before attending any networking meeting find out as much as you can about it: what’s it for (just networking or will there be a talk), will you have a chance to present (e.g. a 60 second presentation), who attends (e.g. mostly small businesses, mostly corporate people, mostly one-man-bands/micro-businesses), what’s the dress-code
Having done your homework on the meeting, decide what you can offer these people.
Learn to sum up your business in two short to medium sentences. This is your ‘pitch’. If someone shows an interest you can then expand, but they aren’t going to give you ten minutes just to explain what you do, before they find it’s of no interest to them.

Remember – networking isn’t all about swapping business cards. It’s about building relationships. Someone may not be directly interested in what you have to offer, or vice versa, but they might no someone who is, or they might develop a need for your services in the future. You’ll never know if you’re not out there building relationships.

Freelancing As A Career
Freelancing symbolizes a profession in which an employee who sells his services to different employers without entering into any long-term contract with anyone of them.
