I think it would be great to meet at a small town Biznik Networking event. Join me next Thursday the 21st out in Duvall and we will share some ideas.
If you can't make it, post your thoughts here. ...Howard

Small Town SOHO Support
Do you operate your biz from a small town home office?
If so, would you like some tips and inspiration from others like you? What are the specific challenges of a small town SOHO biz owner and what are some of the solutions you have discovered? (i.e. business networking)
As a biz-type, we could use a support group now-and-then. What do you think?

Posted by Susan Tilley, Rogue River, Oregon | Aug 14, 2008I live in a small town - pop. 2000 - although I do business all over the region. Fortunately, for a web developer, this is not that isolating.
What I am finding out is that there are lots of business enterprises going on in homes all over the place around here from teeny-tiny to a few quite large.
The problem is finding them and connecting with them.
I have found joining the local chamber very helpful in meeting a lot of local business people. In our area, both Grants Pass and Medford (Oregon) have large and active chambers.
I think it is very important to not just join but to go the meetings and mixers and meet people face-to-face. Just joining and never going is probably a waste of coin.
I'd be real interested in hearing other ideas.
Susan
