At Handshaking, we believe that building strong, lasting relationships is key to success. Whether you're networking in person or engaging with our platform, these values guide how we connect and help entrepreneurs grow their networks:
​1. Quality Over Quantity
We understand that meaningful relationships take time. Instead of rushing to meet as many people as possible, we encourage you to focus on those who align with your goals and interests.  True connections are built through genuine engagement, and those are the ones that last.


​2. Purposeful Conversations
Skip the small talk and dive into conversations that matter. At Handshaking, we believe that relationships are built on shared values and experiences. Here are a few conversation starters that can foster deeper connections:
  • "What are you passionate about right now?"
  • "What's the most exciting thing happening in your business?"
  • "What challenges are you looking to solve at this event?"
  • "How can we collaborate to achieve our goals?"

These types of conversations help us create partnerships that go beyond the surface.
​3. Give More Than You Take
Our community thrives on generosity. At Handshaking, we encourage our members to lead with value. Be curious, ask thoughtful questions, and offer support without expecting anything in return. By focusing on giving you naturally build relationships based on trust and reciprocity.

Remember: It's about building connections, not making sales.
