7 Weeks To Better Networking

7 Weeks. 7 Lessons. The Core Philosophy of The Introverted Networker

The first 7 issues of my newsletter are the foundation of everything I teach about networking, and they remain as relevant today as the day I wrote them.

---

Here’s what to expect:

• I’m sharing the original issues.

• I’ll add new reflections from 2025 Greg, what I’ve learned since, and how people are applying these lessons today.

• Together, they’ll form a step-by-step tour of my entire philosophy on networking.

My hope?

By the end of these 7 issues, you’ll see networking in a completely different way, and you’ll have a system you can actually use.

Follow along issue by issue, or jump into the step that feels most useful right now.

Week 1 — Start With Who You Know
Build your list of dormant ties—the people you already know but haven’t connected with in years.

Week 2 — How to Re-Connect With the Network You Already Have
Send a simple message to one dormant tie to restart the conversation and reignite your network.

Week 3 — Turn Re-Connections Into Conversations
Learn how to move from “catching up” messages to real conversations.

Week 4 — Give Before You Ask
Shift the focus to generosity—adding value before you need anything.

Week 5 — Be Easy to Help
Make it clear, simple, and low-effort for others to support you.

Week 6 — Create Your Target Company List
Build your networking secret weapon. Most people won’t do this. If you do, you’ll stand out in networking.

Week 7 — Create A Networking Habit
Create a system that keeps your network alive and compounding over time. (Coming soon)
