We have a pretty unique format in comparison to other mixers. I invite you and other curious folks to attend our next mixer in January 11, 2010.

When I looked for links to put in my post I found their home base to range from having a website with events properly included to a Facebook Group sporadically enhanced with Facebook events to worse.<br /><br />But there is no question that networking events in LA have come a long way just in this past year.<br /><br />I agree that pre-networking is very valuable and why I want to see a proper event page with an attendee list.Linda Shermanhttp://itsdifferent4girls.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7120556183800964088.post-87236804133630741312009-10-06T13:55:01.094-07:002009-10-06T13:55:01.094-07:00I recently attended a small strategy and planning ...I recently attended a small strategy and planning dinner for a networking group. <br /><br />Between the actual strategy planning, the discussions on other topics was as interesting and valuable as any large networking event I've attended recently.Cliff Allenhttp://blog.suretomeet.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7120556183800964088.post-32097905626929687072009-10-06T13:46:05.147-07:002009-10-06T13:46:05.147-07:00Brian - I've used LinkedIn for targeted discus...Brian - I've used LinkedIn for targeted discussions, but it takes a fair bit of work. I'm wondering if there are better/easier ways to do it.<br /><br />Any thoughts?Tony Karrerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15408035995182843336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7120556183800964088.post-6723272378775652992009-10-06T13:35:11.983-07:002009-10-06T13:35:11.983-07:00I have had some mixed results in attending events ...I have had some mixed results in attending events as well. Doing some targetted discussions would work better for me. I just hate wasting time travelling and attending a bad session. I am looking for discussions around building IT strategies for small businesses. Have worked on music production and medical practices up to this point.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07952408280702377430noreply@blogger.com
