Brand Tweet # 31: "The Pack Mentality" http://www.pmw.net/tweets 100 days to building a better brand!

It is usually not good to bring several people from your office to a networking event. It is too tempting to stay in the safe area and not venture out to meet new people. Going out with a group of other networkers can work either way. If they understand the rules of the game, it can be a great way to quickly canvas the entire room and pick out the people you need to meet. If it is the wrong group, then it can backfire and bring you into a situation where you are with the same people most of the night. I tend to avoid these situations myself.
