Event description
Take a break from your computer and deadlines and come out to meet with some other wonderful entrepreneurs.
We will enjoy a yummy lunch and make real connection with each other. This group is about community and building relationships with other small business owners.
• Come prepared to share an intention you have for this year in your business, and one thing you have done the last month toward meeting that.
• What challenge have you managed to overcome recently and how did you did it?
Note that we meet the second Wednesday of each month, 11:30-1. Please put it on your calendar for the rest of the year. You still have to sign-up each time.
First 15 minutes will be for arriving and ordering food. We begin the meeting promptly at 11:45. Please don't walk in late.
It's a great way to learn about each other and from each other.
We'll have a table for fliers or any information you want to share.
Attendees can expect to...
Feel a sense of community with other local solo business owners and come away feeling inspired.
Top reasons you should attend...
You will meet other Biznik people in Portland. Great food at Old Wives Tales. A chance to get out of your office and feel refreshed!

Aug 28, 2012 Well, it could be him. And, I've invited another friend, Rachel Novak, although requested she become a Biznikian and sign up herself. Sent her an invite plus the link to this event. So, if she does not do any of that, my 1 Guest will be her. If not it will default to Mr. C. ;) unleeeessssssss......
If BOTH sign up (THAT would be A-W-E-S-O-M-E) I will relinquish the guest spot to another. :D

Sep 16, 2012 Hi All ~
Wonderful way to spend part of my birthday! Thank you all so much!!
Here is the link to the Crowdfunding presentation I mentioned in our meeting: http://otbc.org/crowdfunding101
And a bit of the blurb on the sign-up page:
Crowdfunding sites like Kickstarter.com have set the entrepreneurial world ablaze with their democratizing effect in the project funding realm. You’ve read about crowdfunding successes like Pebble, Kickstarter's biggest crowdfunding success (the project raised over $10 million). Now find out how you can use these same sites to get YOUR project off the ground or accelerated into the marketplace.
Join presenter Adrienne Fritze of Marketing Moxie™ for a special 1-hour presentation to find out more about:
- How crowdfunding works
- Various platforms available to entrepreneurs to raise funds or even find investors (beyond the more well known sites like Kickstarter and IndieGoGo)
- How to create the “perfect pitch” for crowdfunding sites
- How crowdfunding campaigns can road test your product offerings and help you build a rabid fan-base
The event is being held at the Oregon Technology Business Center in Beaverton, and is $10 which includes a networking hour following the presentation. Drinks and snacks are provided.
Hope to see you at this event!
My best, A.
