Finally, a great way to stay connected to those you met volunteering, at your old job, or at a recent event, is by connecting through social media. Depending on the person, you can find the appropriate network to connect with them. For example, if it’s a professional you’ve only met once, LinkedIn may be your best option. Facebook on the other hand, can allow you to stay connected with your past co-workers or classmates. With the help of social media, you can keep and grow your connections without having to interact with them on a day-to-day basis. Use it to your advantage to expand your network by also strengthening your personal brand.
