Astute businesspeople like Palmer are realising that Christmas parties are not just ordinary events. Instead they provide excellent networking opportunities. By building rapports and relationships with fellow employees, management and clients you could be doing yourself a terrific favour down the track. Palmer is now the managing director of her own B2B consulting company, BConsulted. "Meeting people through these events is priceless; it's so powerful and shouldn't be underestimated," she says.

"It is too late to build a relationship when you need it most... Do some research before accepting an invitation to an event to establish if you really should attend at all. If you are attending a work function with work colleagues, split up and meet some new people."

"Companies spend a lot of money on staging events or sending their people to events, but if your staff are in the room and they don't know how to communicate, then it's a huge waste of money."

"Part of the problem is that networking is a dirty word here. People see it as connected to selling and that is not it at all. True networking is building relationships with people with common or complimentary interests to yours, with a view that one day, down the road, you might be able to assist one another."

"People put a lot of pressure on themselves when they go to a Networking Function, thinking they have to bring back a sale. Don't treat networking like a sales chore, think of it as a long term marketing tactic and opportunity to build relationships with a wide variety of people, with the ultimate goal being referrals and word of mouth business."

"Business relationships take time to develop. Don't expect relationships to be instantly profitable. Networking is not just the selling and buying process. People discuss ideas, interact and learn."

"We work with a lof of young people and graduates and find they're a lot more open to learning how to (network). They realise it's something they're going to need in their career."

"Networking is the opportunity to meet and qualify contacts face to face, build rapport and gain permission to make contact again. Most people I speak to either love it or hate it, with little grey area in between, but let's face it, when done effectively its the best way to develop, grow and foster long-term business relationships... You may think that networking occurs at specific events, which of course it does and we've all been to them - both good and bad. However, this is really only the tip of the iceberg of networking potential as networking can be done in many different settings."
