I'm currently in the film industry and networking with other creatives is a huge part of the freelance game in order to have a steady flow of gigs. I wanna start a discussion about mones that work well for networking and meeting new people. My first instinct tells me a good social like Glace or an all arounder like Wolf would be the go to options.

But I'm curious as to how well alpha/status mixes like BW,Ascend,Titan would work given a situation where you'd be networking with people that already have higher status than you in hopes of scoring jobs. Would having too much status either intimidate or even the playing field?

I'm also thinking a good fallout/imprinting mix would work well so that you'll linger in their minds and be referred more often.

Any input is welcome!

Imprint from Apex is a great product for "imprinting" on people. Also, hypnotica by LAL is a great social that in my opinion is on par with wolf. If I had to choose, I would go with hypnotica for networking though.

captain might be a good option.
maybe swoon as i've been wearing this to work and it seems to give off a likeable vibe, which is always good for networking

Wolf and glace are pretty standard. BW or ascend spray is not a good idea.

It depends on what kind of networking.

Mind describing your targets and your situation.

I would have social :

- Orbital
- Swoon
- Hypnotica social

Semi Alpha product

- Captain
- Core
- Wolf

If you have been more specific, you could get better suggestion.

Thanks

Most targets are going to be established members of a pretty tight knit industry. I've just graduated college so I'm trying to get my foot in the door as a cinematographer and trying to do whatever it takes to get my foot in the door

I'd say stick to a product that makes you feel comfortable and keeps you honest. Suggestions would be in line with those you already received. NA might be my only addition, Maybe with some CORE.

I would not suggest you to use pure social for now. It will not have that much edge.

You can use:

Core
Wolf
Captain
Nude Alpha

I will start with wolf as you are trying to enter into film industry and wolf adds charisma to the personality.

I think you should set a standard for testing any mones. It will help you in understanding things.

Use one mone and go to networking event. Record the number of interaction with the mone and number close (card).

Try another mone and do the same.

It would give you massive clarity of what works.

Also, report your finding back here. It will help everyone in the community.

I second Wolf - this would be my #1 suggestion for your situation.

Yes I've been using Wolf so far and have been getting pretty good results. People seem to be more friendly and more buddy buddy.

I'm considering testing Wolf + Swoon, Wolf + Core, and Wolf + SXD-9/Nude (for when I need attraction)

Anyone have any experience with these combos?
