Get Connected with a Purpose

     If you are looking for inspiration, whether it is for starting your own business, or you already have your own business and you want to meet motivating individuals who have achieved great success doing what they love to do, then this interactive mini-panel conference is for you. Connected – Networking with a Purpose is set up so everyone who attends gets to sit down and talk with great entrepreneurs, business people, famous artists, CEO’s and marketing-gurus alike.

     I cannot recommend this super-affordable monthly event enough. This month’s panel guests are Inna Gerber, founder of Real Russian Vodka—Premiere Distillery, Dr. Margaret Mitchell, owner of  Mitchell Dental Spa, Patty Jones, an independent Merger Integration and Business Transformation Strategist, and Dr. Sev Hrywnak, J.D., D.P.M., a successful businessman, investor, physician and philanthropist.

    Connected – Networking with a Purpose sold out for the first two event dates and that’s because the total number of attendees is kept to 70. Of the 70 attendees, each and everyone sits down at one of five tables and for most of the 3 hours the 5 panelist will table-hop at equal intervals of time so that each person at each table gets to know them as well as their table-mates.  This is a very up-close and personal intimate experience.

    I was one of the first panelists and I attended the second event and I’ve LinkedIn with so many of the people I’ve met and the contacts that I’ve made were so valuable to what I do in marketing and publishing. This event is for anyone who strives for success and is open to learning from other successful people. Come be inspired to change or start your new career. Feel free to pass out your cards and promote the business that you have. There’s a cash bar and a portion of each ticket goes to charity!

Connected with a Purpose is Hosted by TV and Chicago Personality, Speaker, Trainer, Andrea Metcalf.
