Nurture Your Network with Amy Fair | Marketers Managing (a CMWorld mini-series)

Send us Fan Mail At Content Marketing World, host Rachel Moore interviews Vonage’s Amy Fair, an eight-time attendee, about why she keeps returning: beyond the speakers, it’s the year-round community built by Content Marketing Institute, including connections fostered through Slack and in-person meetups.  Amy explains her networking philosophy as a two-way street, shaped by experiences like losing a job and needing support, and emphasizes giving help as well as asking for it.  They discuss practical ways to network at the conference—starting conversations, using badges and interest-based lunch tables to find commonalities—and why it’s crucial to build relationships before you need them.  For job seekers, Amy urges being open about searching, leveraging contacts to bypass ATS hurdles, and remembering the human element.  Her mantra: nurture your network—people matter, and so do you.
