Who Invited You to Eastside Entrepreneurs?

I'm not looking for a bunch of people who I invited here to speak up, but rather anyone who was invited by someone else. I'd like to know (and I'm sure others may be interested too) who invited you to the group, if you attend events - and your HONEST thoughts about our network ...

Thank you very much for your support and participation.

Greg has been a very supportive and participating member.

Thanks to both of them!

I am new to the Eastside of Seattle - but felt genuinely welcomed and am looking forward to coming again. Storm Janaszak
P.S. I just heard from Jade - I met here there! She's such a warm, sparkly girl....she's busy with her real estate work - I will tell her to sign up as a member - afterall, she was on the cover of the newspaper!; ▶ Reply to This

I have attended a couple of fun networking events and made some great connections that I would not have been able to make without this network. Thanks to Joe and to everyone that participates.; ▶ Reply to This

But glad that I found Eastside Entrepreneurs on my own and hope to meet many more of you. Especially, YOU Hair Farmer! LOL!; ▶ Reply to This

I'm curious as to how you stumbled across the network? BTW - you might want to join the Eastsiders on Twitter (oh - you just did ;-)
If you can come to the party on Wednesday, it's going to be a lot of fun!

I stumbled onto Eastside Entrepreneurs through many links I was hopping. Started with the PI Blogs page and went to Lisa Hilderbrandts page, then here... I think... ;-)

Thanks for the warm welcome!
