Networking shouldn't feel like a chore.
Most people don't have a networking problem. They have a system problem. The 3 Ups gives you one.
Three steps. Real relationships.
Simple enough to remember, practical enough to use the same day, in person and online.
Show Up
Be in the right rooms, online and off, and make a memorable first impression without the sales pitch.
- Choose events and communities worth your time
- Start conversations with confidence
- Make LinkedIn work for you
Follow Up
Where most networking falls apart, and where your opportunities are hiding.
- What to say after you meet someone
- Follow-ups that feel helpful, not pushy
- A simple system so nobody slips through
Catch Up
Keep relationships warm over time, so people think of you when opportunities come up.
- Stay in touch without being annoying
- Reconnect with contacts who've gone quiet
- Turn relationships into referrals
Who it's for
- Professionals growing their career or looking for their next role
- Business owners, consultants and freelancers who want more clients and referrals
- Introverts and anyone who finds networking awkward
- Anyone with a full contact list and an empty pipeline
What you get
- A live training with Dave on Zoom
- Live Q&A to get answers about your own situation
- The replay, so you can watch again (or catch up if you miss it)
- Practical tools you can use the same day
Hi, I'm Dave.
I literally wrote the book on it.
I'm the author of New Business Networking (Pearson/Que), a TEDx speaker, and a communication coach. I've taught thousands of entrepreneurs and professionals as a Google speaker, and helped people at organizations like Google, LinkedIn, FedEx and UPS build stronger working relationships.
The 3 Ups is the method I've used and taught for years. It's built on one belief: networking isn't about collecting contacts. It's about building real relationships, and that pays off for your career and your business.
Kind words
"Dave was able to share a wealth of knowledge, not just around digital marketing and branding, but for my own personal brand and network building."
Phil ShmerlingSVP, Relationship Manager at Studio Bank
"If you have an opportunity to work together, it will be worth it."

Good to know
What if I can't make it live?
Sign up anyway. Everyone who registers gets the replay, so you can watch when it suits you.
I'm an introvert. Is this for me?
Yes. The 3 Ups is about real one-on-one relationships, not working a room. Many people who dislike networking find this approach a relief.
How do I join?
After you sign up, you'll get the Zoom link by email before the training.
Turn the people you meet into opportunities.
