What should a first networking meeting agenda include?

Cover introductions (2 min), mutual interests or connections (5 min), each person's current projects or challenges (10 min), how you might help each other (5 min), and next steps (3 min).

Can I save and reuse agenda templates?

Yes. Create templates for different meeting types — initial introductions, client follow-ups, partner discussions — and customize them for each specific meeting.
