Networking Groups: Small Is Good

I went to a small free networking event at Panera Bread on Route 347 in Hauppauge. I met up with about 7 other business owners getting to know one another. Everyone drinking coffee. I understand that there are 4 or 5 of these events going on between Nassau and Suffolk Counties. Some bigger than others, all introducing people to each other, learning what each does and hopefully forming alliances along the way.

There is something to be said about this kind of forum. It definitely fills a void during these economic times.

(I actually picked up two key leads for work and am talking with a 3rd about using his services to promote my business.

I think the key thing is that we get out there, meet new people and see if we can get each other more contacts and perhaps work.

“People Do Business With People They Know.” Get to know someone new today and maybe do some business with them tomorrow!
