The ongoing coronavirus pandemic doesn’t lessen the importance of networking. The ability to network in order to develop, or make new contacts, is another area of business that has been dramatically impacted by the coronavirus outbreak. People can still build meaningful and useful relationships at home by finding ways to layer the foundation of future growth for when the pandemic ends. One way to network while working remote can be to use media to establish yourself as an expert and drive connections. Getting your name, company or project mentioned in the media is a great way to establish yourself as a thought leader in your space and drive relevant connections that can not only increase your social network but also give your brand a boost. Another way to network remotely is to utilize Slack. Slack is one of the best ways for team members to communicate and collaborate. Having dedicated channels in Slack and meetups with your team can create many growth opportunities. Working remote does present its challenges, but with a little creativity and willingness to think outside of the box, you can build a strong and lasting network, even in the comfort of your pajamas.
