Networking might not always be at the top of your priority list. It can be awkward, time-consuming and downright un-appealing after a long day at work. But it’s also one of the most rewarding and beneficial things you can do for yourself and your business.

It’s not easy to introduce yourself to a bunch of strangers. But like social media, SEO or brand awareness, networking is another investment into your business's future. Just like a good social media presence or strong brand identity, good networking can be the difference between a successful business and a bust.

Keep your business on the successful side of the scale by using the following tips to up your networking game.
