We are having our first business mixer for 2008 on Friday, July 25th, 2008 at 6:30am sharp at the Eastmoreland Grill. (map forthcoming)

This business mixer will be a structured networking event with FOUR of the best LeTip chapters in the Portland Metro area … Lake Oswego, River City, Portland, and West Linn (TBD). Continental breakfast will be served. A complete agenda for the meeting will be distributed digitally a week prior to the mixer.

As always, attendance is required.

We will need 2 volunteers as GREETERS (22.5 minutes each)

There will be a chapter showboat table to promote member signups. This table will be decorated in a Patriotic theme.

We need 3 SHOWBOATERS. Showboat tables are $10.00 each. I will have a sign up sheet at the 7/8 meeting. Showboats are selected by drawing as there will be more people wanting to showboat than space available.

We need 4 RAFFLE PRIZES valued at $10.00 or more. Think of something with reciprocal value for your company.

1 person is need for a LETIP TESTIMONIAL. You’ll stand up in front of everyone and give a testimonial about how LeTip has benefited your business.

GUESTS! GUESTS! GUESTS!

Business mixers like this one are EXTREMELY important for membership building. I know many of us joined subsequent to attending a mixer.

Your Board has developed a postcard mailing to support a membership drive. You’ll have the opportunity to follow up and mentor guests to becoming members of our chapter … and change your badge color too!

Additionally, all four chapters are splitting the cost of a series of ads in the Portland Business Journal promoting the event.

If you have access to or know of places we can announce and promote this event at no- or low-cost, please let me know immediately.

If you have questions or comments regarding this OUTSTANDING EVENT feel free to contact me at any time 971-207-4492.

IF YOU ARE NOT A MEMBER OF LETIP (YET) … and would like to attend this mixer, meet several dozen business owners/entrepreneurs, generate new contacts, and increase your business … CALL ME and I will be more than happy to introduce you to a great group of people.  971-207-4492.
