- reach out to people on twitter before a conference and set up a coffee or meetup in advance
- when meeting a speaker, reference something specific from their talk instead of just saying you're a fan
- find one or two people to navigate a conference with so you have support in awkward situations
- engage in discord and slack communities before a conference to build connections ahead of time
- post consistently on social media so people become familiar with you before and after meeting in person
