Networking! Oh My!

Wow - networking is the name of the game. It is amazing the connections you make at one meeting that leads to introductions at another meeting. So far we have monthly meetings with

• Oakland Business Forum
• Power to be Free
• Dollars
• WCRT
• REIA Macomb
• and a few others, I am sure, I can not remember

In all these meetings, we meet people in Real Estate and other businesses. It is exciting to then see how we can help each other create more business. Most of the people are just neat too!

Through these meetings we have met with organizations like:

• Blightbusters (non-profit, lowering the blight, creating homeowners, employing jobless folks, etc)
• Mastermind (great group of folks that get together and talk about their business, challenges, etc. The group them helps solve, gives ideas, supports, holds accountable, etc. We have a small but powerful group.
• Stonehouse events - he is all about networking and put together events all over. - plus just knows a lot of people.
• Bean Meetings - Another man that knows everyone, it seems. Lots of networking, ideas, and just a lot of fun to talk with.
• Homevesters - interesting business & great connections for getting water readings!

It is a little rough getting to all these meetings and meetings. We still work all day and then do meetings in the evenings and weekends. Poor kitties - we need to try to be home a little more. The meetings are so worth while though- maybe we should take our cats with us! Not a seeing eye cat, but a spending-time-with-so-don't-break-everything-at-home cat. My centering cat for mindful, positive, attitudes. Hmmmmm still need to work on this one.
