  • It is great getting away from the office, forums and e-mail to meet in person local business professionals and have informative discussions. Don did a great job hosting this event and the others in attendance had good depth and business knowledge to add.

    I would like attending an event of this type about once each month and I encourage others to join in locally or in your area. Others could also host an event occasionally giving more options to attend and work around your schedule.

  • This is a good article. It reminded me of the work I do for companies. The problem with humans is trying to recall of the information we are bombarded with every day at the time we need it. That is where a database comes into our lives to assist.

    Databases store information and make it easy to find it and summarize it in reports. Information of all kinds can be stored in a database. It is like having a personal extension of our own brain.

  • This is a good point and one I use in several different ways. We sometimes put too much emphasis on self as a marketing tool. If you are not so self-centered and take the initiative to help others first, you are more likely to be remembered when someone has something that could help you. Business networking is all about putting in contact someone with a need with someone who has a solution. That may not be you at first, but eventually it will pay dividends.
