As you start to become better at networking, it’s important to keep all of your contacts straight. I would suggest keeping a contacts file in whatever email application you are using. Be sure to include Names, Titles, Addresses, Emails, Phone Numbers, and any other special information that may help you out down the line (spouse’s name, kid’s names, likes, dislikes, etc). This type of information is invaluable while you are networking and will help you avoid the embarrassment of forgetting something important.
