[Online] Meetup Organizers Worldwide Networking Meeting; Discuss Best Practices

I've been asked to participate in a Meetup Organizer networking event online where organizers discuss best practices, challenges, opportunities, group marketing, etc. This is the first of what's intended to be a recurring event via Zoom with organizers predominantly across the USA, but would expect potential attendees from other nations to potentially join us. Come connect with other organizers.

Our host is Robert Kelleman, the founder of "Washington, DC History & Culture," the world's third-largest Meetup group (47,000+ members). Robert's been a Meetup member for over 10 years.

Robert's plan is to facilitate the meeting with attendee introductions followed by sharing a brief overview regarding his group and how he uses Meetup to attract attendees, as well as engage and grow his community. Discussions will include topics brought up by attendees, and typically include conversations on best practices in successfully navigating meetings during Covid, marketing, additional platforms such as Facebook and Eventbrite, etc.

This meeting is open to all Meetup organizers, co-organizers, event organizers, etc.

It will be fun!

Agenda - Tentative
1). Icebreaker Introductions: your name, Meetup group, location, etc.
2). Robert Kelleman: how we leverage Meetup with Facebook and Eventbrite
3). Doug Means: Topic TBD
4). Meetup & Covid: success strategies
5). Open Discussion
