I work in the business world, and for some reason I feel that people don't remember me after I meet them. This can create problems when networking is so important to advance my career. Does anyone have any feasible suggestions of how to make people remember me better while maintaining professional behaviour?

I think that a shock and awe approwach would work very well. It doesnt quite have to be cussing them out so theyll never forget you, but make yourself seem diffeerent than anyone else he'll ever meet. Wear a wierd tie, or talk extremely loud(but sound professional in your choice of words). or yuou could be a little unorthodox, like twithing every now and then. No, dont do taht. ztell me if i helped

Best thing that I could think of is that if the people you want to network with works in the same business as you do that you could take them out to dinner or other areas.. It would give you time to talk about work and forces them to say your name. Be yourself. If you are trying to put on a straight face all the time, you may be unknowingly aggitting others in thinking you may be a snob. Treat everbody the same and follow their directions to help with your change that personality.

Hey, you might wanna start by getting their business cards and after a day or two depending on what business your in call them just to say hello or even send your busness card as a way of saying it was nice to have met them

look them square in the eye when talking, introduce yourself and a unique way to remember your name (maybe the meaning or something that rhymes with it)....and then give them a wedgie! Should work everytime ;)

you know can get people to remember you for quite long time if you do nice things to them and if you can do big favors and so that your boss remembers you excel in your work.
take care

wear something flashy but stylish, say something clever/funny, be perky
or observe other ppl wen they meet you - how do you remember them - then do the same thing.

shake hands and when meeting them for the second time tell them your name again and don't make them wonder where they know you from.
