Networking by Design: How Your Brand Message Shapes the Rooms You Walk Into

In this episode of Create Connect Convert, hosts Laura Templeton, Regina Garay, and Kristy Crippen explore how your brand message influences the people, conversations, and opportunities you attract while networking. Laura leads the conversation, unpacking why some networking experiences feel effortless while others fall flat — and how it often comes down to how clearly (or unclearly) you communicate who you are. Together, the team tackles common challenges like sounding rehearsed in introductions, navigating networking as your brand evolves, and shifting away from transactional conversations. You’ll walk away with practical strategies to communicate your brand with clarity, attract aligned opportunities, and build genuine relationships without feeling like you’re performing. Tune in for actionable insights to help you network with confidence, connection, and intention — every room you walk into.
