The thing that worked for me was leaning into questions instead of pitching. Introverts tend to be the better listeners anyway, so I stopped fighting it and let curiosity carry the conversation.

Hey everyone!  I am maybe new but I am old too, hit 50 in January. 🤪

My main comment on this thread is because of inflation, I am hanging on to my last thread, but thankfully it's the hem of HIS garment ✝️

Anyway, I'm located in Buffalo NY and I would like to learn how to help people as everyone is equally stressed out with inflation and the economy but are more numb than motivated to do anything about it so I would love to learn how to crack the code to help people who definitely need help but won't let admit it.

So I am admitting I need some help 🤪

Networking shouldn't be about selling. It should be more about connecting and learning about others' businesses. That can naturally turn into sales later plus you can make some friends along the way. These connections can also help you learn more about your community and how you can contribute to it.
