Be the person that people remember

Hereโ€™s how you can become the most well-connected person at an event โ€ฆ before you even arrive … using AI, of course!

(And if you like what you see, let Austin know. He’s a Venture5 alum and he did the research that you see below.)

๐Ÿญ. ๐—š๐˜‚๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜ ๐—Ÿ๐—ถ๐˜€๐˜, ๐—ฃ๐—น๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐˜€๐—ฒ ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

Hosts usually want to show off the list of guests at their event to attract new guests.

So in many cases, youโ€™ll be able to scout exactly who is attending something youโ€™re planning to attend.

Luma makes it easy to grab a list of attendees:

As does LinkedIn:

๐Ÿฎ. ๐—•๐˜‚๐—ถ๐—น๐—ฑ ๐—” ๐— ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ถ ๐——๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฎ๐—ฏ๐—ฎ๐˜€๐—ฒ ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ‘งโ€๐Ÿ‘ฆ

We took the guest list from this Luma event and manually found LinkedIn profile URLs for each attendee (https://lu.ma/k6o6xtp5)

It took about 15 minutes.

Zeroing in with a CRM like Apollo can provide access to a ton of information to help AI decide whether that person is relevant for you (spoiler alert).

Apollo has a Chrome extension that works well with LinkedIn, too.

Once we had our list:

We just exported it to a ChatGPT-digestible CSV format.

Thereโ€™s no one right way to go about this step.

You can use whatever tools / CRMs you have at your disposal.

We wanted to get a custom report to sharpen our networking efficiency, and ChatGPT had us covered:

There we have it:

If we want to take things to the next level, we can give the model information about us to help refine the search for relevant folks.

Plus we can even identify potential conversation topics or areas of overlap.

We fed ChatGPT Austinโ€™s resume and asked it to do exactly that ๐Ÿ‘‡
