ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Is summer slowing down your networking? It shouldn't be.
In this short solo episode, Mindy East makes the case that summer is one of the best-kept secrets in professional networking — and shares a simple, no-overwhelm plan to help you stay connected all season long.
With the end of Q2 and the start of Q3 landing right in the middle of summer, now is not the time to go quiet. Mindy breaks down why the season works in your favor and exactly what to do about it.
In this episode you will learn:
• Why summer gives you a competitive networking edge
• The one simple opener that works every time this time of year
• Creative, low-pressure ways to connect that fit into your summer schedule
• How to use travel, community events, and even parenting as natural conversation starters
• How to stay visible on LinkedIn when everyone else goes quiet
• A simple four-part action plan to keep your network warm all summer long
Your Summer Networking Action Plan:
• One to two casual meetups per month — a walk, a coffee, an outdoor lunch
• One to two LinkedIn posts per week to stay top of mind
• One reconnect message per week to someone already in your network
• One thing you are already doing that you can invite someone else to
You cannot cram relationships. You have to build them before you need them. Summer is not your pause — it is your head start.
