This is How I Stay Connected to People in My Network

In today’s fast-paced world, relationships can slip away if they’re not maintained. In this episode of The Daily Hint, I discuss a straightforward approach to keep your connections alive and meaningful. Staying top of mind in your network is crucial, not just when looking for opportunities, but as an ongoing habit that creates genuine, valuable connections.

I share my personal system: using a task manager to schedule regular check-ins with key contacts every 12, 18, or 24 weeks. This helps me stay organized and intentional with my follow-ups. Rather than reaching out sporadically, I aim for a steady rhythm of communication. Whether it’s sharing a relevant article or simply checking in, these interactions strengthen my professional relationships over time.

Building this consistent habit means that if I ever have a question or need support, I can comfortably reach out—knowing my connection is current, not distant. Networking shouldn’t be daunting; with the right tools and strategies, you can stay memorable and make lasting connections.
