Tips for a first networking event
- Check guest rules. Many chamber events are free for members and open to guests a few times, sometimes for a small fee. Each listing above shows the cost the organizer posted.
- Register ahead when the organizer asks. Some cap attendance.
- Have a 30-second intro ready. Breakfast groups like Frisco Chamber Works give each business a short commercial.
- Bring business cards and follow up within a day or two.
