Yes, but observe the corollary: Don't be too polite; get out of dead-end conversations as soon as you can.
You don't need to be a dick about it, but be mindful of when a conversation has become more draining then beneficial
(This goes for life in general, not just conferences.)
- benologist 15y agoYes ... just get a card and go from the people who don't care what you're selling or are trying to sell you on their own stuff!
- joshuahays 15y agoYes, but be cautious. Sometimes you have to talk to them for a bit to get them to care. You'll eventually learn the 'buying signals'.
