Hi Paul – this is an excellent post and explanation for the awesome events I attend each week. Thanks for putting into words exactly why I have them on my list of “must do’s” — I think of all the awesome people I’ve met (including you!) and how much more I enjoy seeing everyone in addition to reading tweets, posts, and profiles.
All of my business is a result of meet ups – either directly or through referrals. Meeting and developing online relationships in person is the clincher. Someone can read about what you do but it’s the added “in-person” experience that makes a difference.
Well done – hope to see you soon!
Cheers,
Kristin Rohan
