Networking: Where Virtual Really Does Meet Concrete

May 26, 2011 by SOBCon Authors

Sean McGinnisSeems to be two camps when it comes to networking: Love it or hate it. But fact is, to bring your business to any level of success, you need to network. While networking online has offered us the opportunity to connect with people around the globe, nothing can replace real live, face-to-face meetings. In 2010, trendwatching.com identified “Mass Mingling” as a trend, showing how the online social revolution is fueling an increase in real-world meetups. (Article is a good read!) And since Sobcon is built on the principle of “Where the Virtual Meets Concrete,” we’ll be dedicating our June 16 Sobcon Twitter chat to discussing networking strategies.

For our June chat, we’ve recruited a networking pro from our Chicago area Sobcon family, Sean McGinnis (@SeanMcGinnis), of 312 Digital. as our guest host. His extensive experience in a variety of fields — including law, marketing, and publishing — has required him to be a master connector. We think you’ll enjoy gaining new insights into the world of networking, both online and off.

Join Sean and our June moderator, Heidi Thorne (@HeidiThorne), for what is sure to be a lively and informative chat.

Chat Date/Time: Thursday, June 16, 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m. Central Standard Time.
