Whom do you need to know other than your own contacts?
Relationships are catalyst for success. Hence, at a point   of time any fresher learns the technique of using contacts at the needed frame. But the same set of people cannot be of use over the years. Here comes the need to grind new contacts. When the old network does not work, then one needs to fetch someone new and innovative to serve the process. Whom you get should be the best in task. With the most enduring tactic, networking can provide the most productive result at the right time frame. For success in long run, you should carry forward the existing contacts and also take new turns.

Who in my network might already know the people I would like to meet? 
Networking does not limit to people you know or people you may want to know. Your network also implies that you are a friend of another friend. With the diffusion of social media in our daily lives, first, second plus third degree connections can be used to get your work done. In this method of grazing contacts, one should not forget or not pay heed to the immediate people due to whom the secondary contacts are built. Your immediate friend can be of immense help in this method. He can give you introduction about the next person, or give you hint about how to approach the final contact.
