How to Host Successful Events and Build Meaningful Connections

Jasmine starr

You probably know this by now: I’m highly introverted.

But in business, there are things I must do despite the fact that they don’t come naturally. Speaking. Creating content. Networking. While, yes, sometimes these things can feel draining, they’re essential to growing our businesses and building relationships.

That’s why I was so excited to sit down with Nick Gray, the mastermind behind hosting successful events and making meaningful connections. He’s the author of The 2-Hour Cocktail Party and has built his career around bringing people together—even when it doesn’t feel natural.

In this episode, Nick shares tips that can make events and networking less overwhelming, especially for introverts like me.

One of the greatest treasures somebody can have is a good friend. A friend is someone who, albeit initially a stranger, ends up playing a significant role in our lives. Pure friendship is enjoying someone without expecting anything in return, much like true love. However, as time passes by, it gets increasingly difficult to find these so-called friends. Other than the obvious, adults usually don’t have any more time to spend finding good friends anymore unlike when they were children. Nick Gray offers a solution for anyone having the same difficulties. It’s never too late to find friendship.

Episode 228: Everyone — including you! — should host more events (with Nick Gray)

podcast with Spencer Greenberg

Why should people host more events than they do right now? Under what conditions shouldn’t a person host more events? Do these suggestions apply to introverts? What’s the best RSVP tool? What is “double opt-in”? What’s the ideal length of time for a social event? What kinds of ice-breaker activities, if any, should hosts use? What are the primary factors that affect people’s enjoyment of an event? What does it mean to “compress and release” in an event or party context? Which nights of the week are best for hosting events? When should hosts end the event? What should hosts do if people’s energy or enjoyment seems to be flagging? Should everyone get a name tag? How should hosts follow up after an event? What is “the strength of weak ties”? Should events be used as business networking tools? How can someone meet more interesting people?
