What we're about
All successful professionals appreciate that their Network = their Net-Worth. You can never have too large or too strong of a network. Most people understand that they NEED a network, they just don't have a step-by-step process to get the results they want.
This is where Connectors Club comes in. Networking is NOT going to an event, handing out cards, giving your elevator speech, and then waiting for the phone to ring. Networking is also NOT a pool of prospects where you go to throw up all over everyone with your sales pitch.
Networking done correctly is a combination of factors.
Since launching this group in 2007, we've learned a lot of wrong ways to do networking, and we've learned a lot of right ways to do it. At its most basic, successful networking is about building relationships. Think of the way you purchase goods and services, and you'll know what I'm talking about.
This year, we'll help you with your personal development, and help you grow a strong network of professionals through multiple valuable events including Coffee Meet and Greets, Mastermind, Sharpen the Axe Personal Development, our Strategic Connections Initiative, and maybe even a couple Happy Hours and Lunch n' Learn Sessions.
As a great mentor once taught me: "You've got to circulate to percolate."
I encourage you to attend one (or multiple) events, plug in, engage, and connect with some fascinating folks you would never otherwise cross paths with. We meet multiple times a month, mostly in person, but occasionally on Zoom. We look forward to the opportunity to meet you and look forward to seeing you soon

This will be valuable and fun! BYO Lunch @ BOS
The purpose of this group is to share your goals and challenges, and then utilize the collective brainpower of the group to help you achieve those goals, and overcome your challenges.
Everyone should belong to a Mastermind Group. The Mastermind concept is based on the idea that none of us individually is as smart as all of us collectively. Think of a Mastermind Group as your own, personal Board of Directors, gathered together for the expressed purpose of helping you reach your goals, whether that is to Start a Business, Grow a Business, Change Careers, Look for the Next Thing, etc.
If you have participated in a Mastermind Group in the past, you know how valuable it can be as a vehicle to help you reach your goals.
If you have never participated in a Mastermind group before, here is your opportunity.
Connectors Club has hosted several Mastermind groups over the years, and I still receive feedback to this day from former attendees as to the value they received, and that they are still using the tools and disciplines learned during their time in the group.
This will be our first in person Mastermind since COVID, and I am promising you something special. I have the benefit of having attended almost all previous Masterminds, and I can now capture the best and most powerful tools and exercises, consolidate them into a new program, all designed to benefit YOU!
The plan is to meet monthly, and the purpose is to provide you with you with a group of awesome professionals, a few simple, powerful tools, an outstanding support system, a dose of Accountability, some great peer-to-peer Mentors, and the opportunity to Enjoy the Journey, and Celebrate our individual and collective wins.
Our Monthly Focus features the 30 days immediately ahead, as well as a rolling emphasis on the next 12 weeks of your business. We do a helping of Brainstorming, and suggestions on how to help each other overcome obstacles.
We'll discuss the Wheel of Life. This is useful for all areas of your life, both personal and professional. As time allows, we will do a deep dive into one members business.
COMMITMENT
To be a success, members need to commit to one another. This is a limited number of sessions, once per month. We realize life happens, and understand if you cannot attend on occasion, but we ask that you make the group a priority for the meeting sessions, and try to make it non-negotiable with your other commitments. You don't need to commit to all sessions without attending one, giving us a test drive, and seeing if it is a good fit for you. All we ask is that you come with an open mind, and a spirit of finding positive ways to help the others in the group.
COST
There is no cost to participate in the program. This months session is at Back Office Studio, and you are free to bring your lunch, brown bag style. As a professional courtesy, PLEASE RSVP if you are going to attend, so that I may provide a head count.
I for one, am really looking forward to it. I really encourage you to join, check us out, make some great new connections, and add a tool to your toolbox that will carry you forward not only for 2023, but for many years to come.
I look forward to seeing you there!
