This last week, I had the opportunity to hear one of i Take The Lead Portland’s most popular Special Guest Speakers: Dotty Scott. Dotty has a knack for taking a complicated subject and making it easy for us non-techies to understand. This particular presentation provided some great tips on Blogging for Business.
She’s is one of my favs!! Shy, introverted, and one of the best networkers I know, Dotty took a part-time business and has successfully built it into a thriving, full-time enterprise! Premium Websites http://www.premiumwebsites.net The best part? Dotty did this by networking in person as well as by using Social Media sites, such as Facebook and Linked In!!
Our i Take The Lead members tell us all the time how much they appreciate the Special Guest Speaker events we have. They especially enjoy the information our speakers provide. One of everyone’s favorites is
Cleon Cox III. Cleon Cox, Author, Publisher, Speaker and Founder of Job Finders Support Group (
http://www.jobfindersupport.com/) teaches us how we can make
LinkedIn…the newest buzz word in the business community…..benefit us and our business!!! Guests learn about these meetings by going to our website
http://www.itakethelead.com/ and going to the Events page. We keep our meetings open to the business community. Feel free to come check a meeting out.
Some of Cleon’s wisdom? According to Cleon his smartest networking move: Realizing that anywhere one goes is always a networking opportunity. By attending assorted venues I’ve met a wide array of folks with many abilities and talents. Some will be added to our circles of influence and others will go by the wayside.
What works: Lots of networking and hard work. Networking is so useful, needed, efficient and fun. When networking we meet many new folks and some will become permanent members of our circles of influence. If we have fun and meet new folks then we have learned something. This is where my personal mantra comes from: “Have fun, meet people, learn something.”
