5 Expressions to Avoid In Formal Networking Situations – #5
“LET ME KNOW HOW IT GOES”
(Держите меня в курсе, дайте мне знать)
If someone has been kind enough to speak to someone else on your behalf, be sure you do the follow-up (вы сделаете все остальное сами) —don’t expect them to get back to you.
Ask your new contact when you should follow up with them. You might also inquire “What is the best way to reach you?” They may give you their business card or phone number or say “Text me at this number.” The point is that you want to close on (придти к соглашению) this networking opportunity, and that means the next step should be very clear.
Thank-yous are also in order. Close the conversation by thanking this individual. And say thanks again when you receive the new contact’s name. After you meet with this new referral, send a note saying how the conversation went. A gracious (любезный) touch is to send a handwritten note.
