Meet the Founders
Over the last several decades the two of us have attended copious amounts of networking events sponsored by various organizations. During that time we have seen the good, the bad, and the ugly! The bottom line is we have seen what works, and what doesn't work.
In response, we have developed an organization that reflects our region's values and local sensibilities. Our focus is solely on networking to build all of our respective businesses.
We have created networking clubs that make people feel comfortable in engaging in word-of-mouth marketing. We want you to form strategic alliances within the group and reap the benefits of referring to each others' warm markets.

Let’s face it: when we are seeking a service, we are looking for someone we can trust; someone who is proven and who comes highly recommended; someone who is already on our side. We want to recommend experienced people who will take care of our clients the same way we do, and we want to refer trustworthy associates who often become our friends.
Dan believes strongly that regular networking is vital for building relationships.
He knows that this system works when a referral is received by a past client, who was referred by a client, who was also referred by a past client.
