Ask How can freelance business build a professional network to help grow fast?

[SuperAffiliateX]

I'm just starting my freelance business and I'm wondering how to build a strong professional network. I've heard networking is key to growing quickly, but I'm not sure where to start. Should I focus on attending events, connecting on LinkedIn, or maybe both? How do I approach people without coming off too salesy?

I really want to grow my business fast, and I know that having a solid network can help with that. What are the best ways to build a professional network that can help me expand my freelance business quickly?
