Outreach & Networking Plan

As we've discussed, meeting people, forming relationships, and having conversations are the key pieces to getting your foot in the door at any company. It's important to be proactive in your approach to outreach and networking, so it's necessary to make a plan for what you'll try to further your networking.

Identify a contact you will reach out to by the end of this module. This could be a mentor, alum, or anyone from your current network. Describe:

Who your contact is, why you want to connect with them, and what you want to talk about

I've reached out to Tyler Merry at Motley Fool. He's an old family friend from high school who had been working in the industry out here for some time. I want to talk to him about the different positions he's held at different companies and what has made each position or company great or lacking.
