I found the Good Hundred networking day Tad Hargrave put together in Alberta very inspiring (or at least his good article about it, http://marketingforhippies.com/seven-community-building-lessons-in-becoming-a-hub/ ). Wonder if we might do a similar salon/catalyzing day around here, adding to the great work already done by InCommN, TedX, Ignite, PV Local First, etc., but with a specific focus on people doing good. -- _________________________________________________ Shel Horowitz Marketing consultant/copywriter, author, speaker, book shepherd Affordable, ethical, effective marketing materials and strategies "Reach Green, socially conscious consumers with marketing that has THEM calling YOU" Twitter: @shelhorowitz * First business ever to be Green America Gold Certified * Inducted into the National Environmental Hall of Fame http://greenandprofitable.com/ http://guerrillamarketinggoesgreen.com mailto:shel at greenandprofitable.com * 413-586-2388 Award-winning author of eight books.
