A couple nights ago I went to my first local business networking event sponsored by our city chamber of commerce. It was interesting to mingle, collect business cards, hand mine out and spend a few min. getting to know and hearing every one's 60 second intro. The venue was packed with people all looking to make a business connection that will help them in the future.
One of the things I noticed at this event was that people were willing to share or forward information from someone they knew what might help another attendee that night.
In the 2&1/2 hour event I came away with the business cards of 35 different business people.
If you are looking to get connected to the community you are in. I highly suggest that you look into your local chamber of commerce for connections.
It doesn't take much to join a group like this but the benefits can me great. Our world is so connected and even with all the technology it is still through a personal connection that opportunities and resources flow!
