I think networking has a follow-up problem

Been thinking about this a lot while building PeersUp. We already have enough ways to meet people through LinkedIn, events, communities, intros and everything else.

The part that keeps failing for me is what happens after. You meet someone, have a really good conversation, say “let’s keep in touch” and then two weeks later you realise you never followed up.

That’s the part I want to fix with PeersUp. I’m starting to think networking doesn’t really have a meeting problem, it has a follow-up problem.

Curious if you see it the same way?
