Are you a collector or a connector?

Have you ever been at a networking event and met someone who didn't want to talk, they just went around the room asking everyone for business cards? Networking is all about making that connection with others rather than seeing whose business cards you can collect. To me it is quality versus quantity. I would rather have one conversation with someone that is a potential client or a good lead source than to meet ten people that that are only interested in making that sale.
