OVER DEZE AFLEVERING
In this episode of Create Connect Convert, hosts Laura Templeton, Regina Garay, and Kristy Crippen explore how a simple “coffee date” can become a meaningful connection when you approach the conversation with purpose. Laura leads the discussion as the team tackles everything from surprise sales pitches and awkward virtual calls to the importance of respecting each other’s time and showing up prepared.
Together, they unpack how a little research before a conversation can help someone feel seen, why every new connection doesn’t need to be a potential client, and how asking better questions can uncover opportunities to serve, connect, and refer others. They also share practical ideas for following up, keeping track of what you learn, and turning a single conversation into a relationship that continues long after the call ends.
Tune in for practical insights to help you approach networking conversations with preparation, curiosity, and generosity—so you can create meaningful connections instead of collecting contacts.
