WSO Conference 2013 Panel Suggestion

Patrick, Andy, and Others...

This actually just popped into my head as I was working. At this past conference you had a panel which stressed 'The Importance of Networking'. We even got the "It's not what you know, it's who you know." talk.

How about for next year's conference, have a panel which focuses on HOW to Network. I say this because there are always a ton of threads on the site about cold-calling/emailing/meeting/and attire to wear.

I, myself, am in no position really to give any professional advice on this topic but I'm sure there are people here and people you obviously know who can do so. The whole reason I bring this up is because my friends often ask me how I get certain interviews and how I can be so persistent. Granted, I haven't gotten where I want to be yet but its a slow roll. You've got to remember these things but there are other techniques you can utilize to leverage your opportunities that much more.

So, what do you guys think?
