NETWORKING & SELF-MARKETING TOOLS
Be sure to have your business cards ready! There is truly no excuse not to have professional business cards when attending any networking event. Bring at least 100 business cards - it's better to have extra, than to run out. Mobile business card apps are also popular.
If job seeking - you should bring only 3-5 printed resumes MAXIMUM with you. Most convention and conference recipients prefer to receive your resume by email or electronically. These can easily be misplaced and lost.
