Did you know that 76% of survey respondents noted that a strong network was one of the key factors in getting ahead? The idea of networking may give you sweaty hands but if you’re not networking, you’re missing out on personal and professional opportunities. 

Growing your professional network is crucial. If you’re not convinced yet, keep reading for five of the key benefits of networking. 

1. Get Access to Job Opportunities

Finding a good job isn’t as simple as filling out a job application or sending in a resume. It’s more often about business networking.

Research reveals that about 80% of jobs come through professional and personal connections, not resumes. At least 70% of jobs aren’t published in public ads. That means your network offers the best opportunity for finding a job. 

And networks aren’t only important in finding a job…

2. Career Advancement Opportunities

Your network is also the best place to find a better job and move up the professional ladder. Are you in a good job but you think you can do better? That’s another reason to start building or continue to build your network. 

The right contact in your network can change your career path. 

3. Build Self-Confidence

If you struggle in groups and lack self-confidence and networking skills, you’re not alone. Many people find it difficult to know where to start when it comes to building their network.

Are you struggling with ideas for building your network? Are you an ecommerce entrepreneur unsure of what to do next?

Try enrolling in ecommerce meetups. These in-person workshops are a great place for networking opportunities and meeting other people with interests like your own. You’ll find it’s much easier meeting and networking when you’re also learning about something in which you’re interested. 

You’ll learn valuable social skills as you step outside your comfort zone, meet others, and build new relationships. 

4. Gain New Perspectives

Do you struggle with the art of conversation when meeting new people? Are you wondering how to network?

Next time you’re at a social or work event, seek out someone whose work you admire. Ask for her opinion about something you’re working on. 

People enjoy sharing their opinions, so it’s a great ice breaker and gives you something to talk about. You’ll gain fresh insights and perspectives that may help you in your current position. If there’s a good rapport, exchange contact information and schedule a time to meet for coffee.

Do this 1-2 times per month and by the end of the year, you’ll have at least a half-dozen new people in your professional network. 

5. Develop Long-Lasting Personal and Professional Relationships

As you understand the benefits of networking and get better at it, you’ll develop some long-lasting personal and professional relationships. Another benefit of networking is that it’s a two-way street. 

Your network can benefit you when it comes to finding a job or advancing in your career, and you can also benefit others in your network. 

The Benefits of Networking

These are some of the many benefits of networking. If you’ve been neglecting this part of your personal and professional life, it’s time to get started!
