What is a Network Score?
Your Network Score is a 0–100 measure of how much of your professional networking actually turns into lasting connections. Most professionals meet far more people than they keep: paper cards get lost, contacts never reach the phone book, and follow-ups slip. The quiz scores the four habits that decide whether a handshake becomes a relationship — how you share your details, whether you're reachable at all times, how reliably you capture the people you meet, and how quickly you follow through.
It takes about a minute, requires no signup, and everything runs right here in your browser.
The 4 dimensions we measure
Digital sharing (30 points): can you hand over your details in seconds, in a way the other person can actually use? Digital cards and QR codes score highest because they remove typing and lost paper.
Always-on presence (22 points): are you reachable even when you're not in the room — through a wallet pass and a working email signature?
Contact capture (24 points): the biggest silent leak. Studies suggest most paper business cards never make it into a contact list or CRM. We score what happens after the handshake.
Follow-through (24 points): a captured contact is only potential. Speed of follow-up and a current public profile turn potential into a real network.
How to improve your Network Score
The fastest gains come from tooling, because habits follow friction: get a digital business card so sharing takes one tap, add a QR code where you can reach it, put your card in your phone's wallet, and set up a proper email signature. Together those four close more than half the possible gap.
The rest is behavior: save new contacts the same day with a note on where you met, follow up within 48 hours, and refresh your public profile quarterly. Retake the quiz after a month — most people jump a full tier.
Frequently asked questions
- How is the Network Score calculated?
- Eight questions, each worth up to 18 points, across four dimensions: digital sharing (30), always-on presence (22), contact capture (24) and follow-through (24). The weights favor what you do after meeting someone — capture and follow-up — because that's where most networking value is won or lost.
- Is this a real assessment or just marketing?
- Both, honestly. The questions reflect real networking research — like the finding that a large share of paper business cards never reach a contact list — and the recommendations point to tools (some ours, some habits) that close each gap. Your score is only as honest as your answers.
- Is my data private?
- The quiz runs in your browser and asks nothing personal — no name, no email, no signup. We use privacy-friendly analytics to see how people move through the quiz.
- What do the personas mean?
- Five tiers from Paper Dinosaur (0–24) to Network Ninja (85–100). They're a playful shorthand for how much of your networking actually sticks. Most first-time takers land in the middle as a Rising Connector.
- Can I share my result?
- Yes — that's half the fun. Share a link that shows your score and persona, post it to LinkedIn, X or WhatsApp, or download a score card image for your feed. Anyone who opens your link can take the quiz and compare.
- How do I raise my score?
- Start with the three recommendations on your result screen — they target your weakest answers. Tooling fixes (digital card, QR code, wallet pass, email signature) are one-time setups; capture and follow-up habits take about a month to stick. Then retake the quiz.
