August 1, 2014Great advice as usual, Helga!
I can think of one event in particular where I was really happy talking to a few people and finding out what they did with genuine interest and we were bombarded with someone who was ‘working the room’. I remember the little group more (and have stayed in touch)than the person who crashed in with loads of business info!
