Power Networking is back by popular demand at the Carlsbad Chamber's August 6 First Friday Breakfast.
Get ready to switch gears from the speaker-driven format and sit in the driver's seat to take control of your own network-building future. This round-robin styled event introduces like-minded professionals and helps them make strategic business connections resulting in expanded opportunities and broadened horizons. Not bad for a morning meeting!
As attendees arrive, they are assigned to a table where they meet seven new people. Each person gives his or her own 17-second 'commercial.' The table facilitator keeps the conversation going by asking each person questions. Based on the answers, the facilitator recommends participation in one of the Chamber's many committees, and suggests creative referral and partnership pairings among table members.
Following this energetic exchange, each person moves to a different table to meet seven new people. This lively interactive setting gives attendees the chance to meet up to 14 other people, instead of the usual seven.
“Everyone is guaranteed to meet more than a dozen new contacts, plus they all get to partake in early bird networking and networking after the event,” said Bev Jorgensen, the Chamber's vice president of corporate and member relations. “Power Networking is at the heart of what the Chamber is all about — getting out there and making connections in the community to build a strong foundation for successful business. And it's fun!”
First Friday Breakfast is the Chamber's premiere networking and business promotional event, and one of the most regularly attended monthly programs. The breakfast will be from 7 to 9 a.m. August 6 at the Windmill Banquet & Catering, 890 Palomar Airport Road, Carlsbad, 92008.
Tickets for the event are $30 for chamber members and $50 for prospective members registered by July 30. AfterJuly 30, and at the door, tickets are $55. At the door, seating is not guaranteed and is available on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Tabletop exhibits or Soapbox presentations are available to promote your business for $70 each, which includes one breakfast, and must be reserved in advance by calling Deveney Gibbons at (760) 931-8400.
