1. Listen before you talk.
2. Share advice and resources at least 8 or 10x as often as you self-promote.
3. Be friendly, helpful, and interesting; provide useful and accurate information that builds people’s trust in you.
4. Amplify your message across different channels, but only in ways that make sense and don’t annoy.
5. Reach out to others, both individually and in groups (as appropriate).
