- Share the slides and leverage SpeakerRate.com to get additional feedback and rating from your talk.
- Create a blog post summary of your talk with a link to SpeakerRate.com
- Take the best twitter comments favorite them and use them as testimonials within your blog post. You can also easily embed each testimonial tweet which mentions the persons name and Twitter handle.
- Share via Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, etc the blog post summary
Offline:
- Host a book signing and/or tweetup right after your talk.
- Make time to take pictures of audience and people you have meet afterwards
- Have your business card with your name and contact info available to stay connected.
These few and simple tips will help you to stay connected to the people you have met at the networking event.
And that is very important.
