We all spend a great amount of time these days in front of our machines - laptops, desktops or smart phones. Sure we connect with people on Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn, but there's no beating the face-to-face meeting with your friends, colleagues, business partners and even potential clients.
Ed Kuryluk of Right Mind Marketing in Fairfield, Connecticut and I sent each other messages wondering whether it was high time to reconnect with all of our friends online and invite new ones to join us at a centrally located venue that would be easy to access by everyone.
Well, we've decided to do just that on Friday, June 17th in Rocky Hill, Connecticut. Please consider this your invitation to ConnectUP. All the details you will need are here - http://twtvite.com/connect_UP. We do ask that you RSVP so that we have a good sense of how much space we will need for the event. If you still have questions about what this event is about (yes it is FREE), please contact me.
I would be terribly amiss if I did not acknowledge Suzi Craig of Fathom for originally spearheading these gatherings in Connecticut. They were first known as "TweetUp" and then "TweetCrawl". So, thank you, Suzi for inspiring us to do this.
The dress is casual, the atmosphere is very relaxed. But do bring your business cards with you. Each person who personally gives me a business card is entered into a drawing for a complimentary family photography session (valued at over $500). Winner announced that very night. So, you do have to be present to win. The session, in July, will be for 2 hours in or around Avon, Connecticut. If you win, but can't commit to a date in July, you are free to transfer the offer to one of your friends or family.
Come hang out with us and unwind a bit. Talk shop if you must but think of it as the un-business networking event of the month. You may know us online but it would be great to connect with you offline too!
So, who is coming? Will you be the one to win the family photography session? Once you sign up, please comment below! |
