Today’s community question about finding networking opportunities.

This is more along the lines of the beginner who is getting started with networking, IMHO (in my humble opinion). I know that when I first got started I didn’t even know what a networking opportunity was.

Now I think that a networking opportunity is something along the lines of something that:

• Connects me with someone who can help me develop my business.
• Connects me with a group of people who will promote or help the growth of my business.
• Puts me in a situation where I can help promote people who I am networked to.

I suppose it is about keeping your eyes open and being ready for oncoming networking opportunities.

But I want to hear from all of you. How do you find networking opportunities?
