Event description

The Biznik VIP event is known for the bump up in quality of the business networking. Join Biznik's star-studded cast of Supporting Members at one of Capitol Hill's finest new joints, The Saint, for an exclusive monthly event for Supporting Members only, hosted by the Cofounder of Biznik.


Why Supporting Membership?

Marked with a gold star, Supporting Members are the leaders of this community. VIP events like this one are only one of the benefits for those who are serious about their business. In addition to all the profile enhancements of the Active Memership level, Supporting Members benefit from premier visibility inside the Biznik community and increased Search Engine Optimization outside.

It's a fact: on average Supporting Members receive 26 times more traffic from Biznik.com to their own web sites than basic members. And premium members appear higher on Google too! For searches on their name or keywords, 93 percent of Biznik's Supporting Member profiles are listed in the top 10 results on Google. And 60 percent are ranked #1. How we know this.

About the venue.

The Saint - run by Quentin Ertel - is an intimate venue with a fabulous happy hour menu that has been extended to Bizniks until 8pm: five items on the menu are priced at $5 a piece.

Due to the size of the venue, we're limiting this event to 45 people.

16 Bizniks attended this event

    Haven't been to a happy hour in awhile and realizing how much I miss just meeting up to chit chat about whatever and meet cool folks :)

    See you soon!

    Too far under the weather to be there (I KNOW--how can anyone be under this amazing weather ...)

    as synchronicity would have it, I've had several cancellations that day, and am free to venture down to Seattle for the evening.

    I'll check inside and see if it fits, but mostly I want to say this:

    It is so tremendously beneficial and cool to be a supporting member! People have been finding me, but most of all, we gold-stars are all supporting an entity (biznik) whose time has come ...biznik supports us independent thinkers in an age where original thinking is coming in very handy.

    so drink, be merry, and, most of all, grateful for biznik and each other.

    cheers, Elke

    Will be a treat to see you, Elke.

    I hope the Saint is air-conditioned... Today was miserable and I'm vowing to be cooler tomorrow!

    Can I bring my non-biznik husband?

    I'm afraid this is one of the rare Supporting-Members-only events that we offer. If you husband would like to create a profile on Biznik and upgrade to the $24 level, he may join us. Otherwise, I'm afraid he may not.

    I am going to have to come on down another time. Lara, please have another supporting members shindig!

    I have work today...which is a great thing...and both clients came from finding me via googling spiritual counselor and my name came up you-know where! (hint: it starts with B and ends with .com)

    have a cool time y'all. Elke
