Ever left a networking event wondering why nothing came of all those connections?

Most entrepreneurs think networking doesn't work because they're in the wrong rooms or not meeting enough people. But the real problem is they're either unclear about what they do, unwilling to share it confidently, or completely dropping the ball on follow-up. Today's conversation will change how you approach networking forever.

Annie Franceschi is a former Disney storyteller, branding expert, and host of the Establish Yourself podcast. Since 2013, Annie has helped over 400 entrepreneurs clarify their brand message, package their offers, and grow businesses with confidence through her practice, Greatest Story Creative. Along the way, she's spoken for thousands, been featured in Forbes, and written 3 bestselling books.
