I'm a firm believer in face to face networking. Back in November I stumbled onto this website called Meet up.com. This site allows for groups in local areas to meet up and make face to face connections. I had an idea several months back that would incorporate networking, exercise and giving back to the community. So imagine my surprise to find meetup! So, I went with my idea and gave it a go!
I have and still am involved in some awesome networking opportunities that are held in restaurants and other locations but really felt the need get away from food and feel the fresh air hitting my face. The WEST MICHIGAN WALK N TALK NETWORKING GROUP was born in December, while we've been growing at a slow pace, I am hopeful with the brutal MI weather behind us, we will attract more members!
West Michigan Walk N Talk Networking Group meets once a month and our next walk will be held April 14Th from 12-1pm around Reeds Lake. To find out more or to join, check us out at West MI Walk N Talk!
I believe if we can somehow find a balance of both face to face and online connections our business can only flourish! So, hat's off to all that are trying to achieve that balance with all the other balancing we have to do!
