Skip the networking events, try coffee chats instead

I spent two years going to every industry mixer in Austin thinking that was the only way to meet people. Handed out maybe 50 business cards and got zero real leads. Then I started sending cold LinkedIn messages asking for 15 minute coffee chats with people one level above me. Landed three solid job referrals in a month. Has anyone else found a better return on one on one meetings over those big room events?
