Event description

The Biznik way of networking is a powerful combination of online social networking technology paired with face-to-face events. Learn from Biznik's new 'Community Catalyst' Leif Hansen how to grow your business faster and become more profitable by using the tools at your disposal.

He'll walk you through the five main areas of the site, elaborate on the features as we designed them, and how to use them:

Your Profile: self promotion & visibility on the site
Events: hosting & attending
Membership: using the directory & your Biznik network
Biz Talk: online socializing & discussions
Articles & Tips: writing, rating & commenting

This workshop will be focused on questions YOU bring to the table - so come prepared to ask a lot of them.

What members say about the event

Just when you think you have Biznik figured out, they add a few more nuggets. I recommend this to anyone who wants to get the most out of their membership. --Bob Dunn

I was already excited about Biznik and had been spreading the word, but now I'm even more amped up about it. This is an incredible resource you've created and I have no idea why a small business owner would be part of any other networking service (online or in person). You have them all beat, hands down. Thank you!" --Debbie Lacy

I attended the tutorial about how to plug into all the benefits of Biznik last nite. I highly recommend everyone go to this event in the future. The site is amazing and continues to get better with all the plans you have in the works. It was a good use of my time and I am going to send my mktg partner to the next one. --Bill Hoffer

Go Leif Go!!

I am so happy you are Biznik's new Community Catalyst. What a terrific position and no one would do a better job than you will.

Good luck and Great news for San Fran!

Thanks Amanda, I hope this isn't too last minute for SF folks, but its worth a try at least.

It's time San Fran gets some Biznik love...
Posted by Carol Skolnick, Santa Cruz, California | Aug 23, 2008

Too last minute for me, but I hope to attend future events in the Bay area!

What a cool title, Leif. Way to spread the Biznik love!

- Thanks for the set-up Dan ;)
- Yes Sasha, that's the hope!
- Sorry Carol, yeah sorry, it was a last minute idea and so I decided to dive in and see what we could do --next time hopefully you'll get to come to an event.
- Rachel, you like that title? Me too. Actually, it was my Bizjam Pathable title as well --so it ended up being kind of a self-fulfilling prophecy in a fun way.
As long as we keep 5 (hopefully we'll at least get it to 10), the event is a go. Look forward to meeting you all and seeing what sounds like a great space!

Warning: I'll be coming from my final (4th) day at an improv intensive workshop (with BATS theater) and so might be a wee bit exhausted --but fear not, we will dive into BiznikLand!

Warmly, leif

I'M from Seattle, so I hope I'll find the location.

Leif: Great idea, really would like to meet you & other SF Biznikites and see the Sandbox at last, but today is shaping up to be too tight. Will hope for a repeat engagement -- perhaps a weekday next time? Fingers crossed!

Leif how wonderful you got these kudos from your seminar. Hope you return, with a bit longer lead time
Posted by Leif Hansen, Port Townsend, Washington | Aug 27, 2008

Thanks Kare, though not sure which kudos you are referring to (definitely got some sent privately, we had a good, power-packed 2 hours together.)

Sorry for the lead time, I didn't realize it would/could happen till a week before I was down there (or less!)

BTW, love your website name "movingfrommetowe" I think about that concept a lot. And recently, I was thinking how we need in this world, a shift from West/East split --how we need it unified to WE ;)
