Reminder: Business relationships can be fun! What common interests do you have? What community event can you invite someone and/or their family to? Even when it comes down to celebrating the 4th of July, having a SuperBowl party or even an event for your kids, think of which business connections come to mind for inviting. If you think they’re a good fit, invite them. This can open up whole new levels to the relationship. #buildingrelationships #conversations #communication

As a Broward County community member and founder of The Official Glue, I have decided to enhance our business involvement by joining the Broward Schools Business Excellence program hosted by Broward County Public Schools. This program aims to provide valuable insights to elevate small businesses and help them increase their visibility within the community. The session offered opportunities to network with other local businesses and learn from highly regarded community experts like Dr. Reggie R.

It was wonderful to meet everyone virtually at my first Business Partner Council meeting for Community Associations Institute National & here are my takeaways: - Stop with snail mail! - Reputations are reinforced at industry events & meetings. - Reinforce your relationship with clients by dropping off goodies at their office. Rob's Tip: Play nice in the "sandbox" - There's enough business for everyone in the Greater Chicago Area & I'm happy to help other business partners. #wearecai #AssociationImprovements #propertymanagement #propertymaintenance #lovewhatwedo #lovewhatyoudo #Networking #ethicalbusiness #ethicalbusinesspractices #networking

Let's celebrate #SmallBusinessWeek with this tip from my own playbook. Hosting events is more than just an occasion; it's a strategy to garner attention and foster connections within your community. Make your small business more visible today! #SonnyRandhawaStateFarmAgent

Real connections don’t need calling cards. Because when you can remember a person by what they said or how you felt above your conversation, you will know you have encountered a real connection, not just a transactional one. In our community events, we dive into conversations, share experiences, and truly get to know each other. It’s about creating lasting relationships where value is shared organically. You're more than an email address or another lead. The essence of our gatherings is authenticity. When you attend a Rainbow Warriors or Mastermind session, you’re not there to collect contacts; you’re there to build meaningful connections. Instead of calling cards, we exchange personal stories instead. I've had attendees remember each other by one funny joke or a relatable incident they shared. The communities I build are places where stories are told, lessons are learned, and communities are strengthened. Here we are in a recent event I hosted for Mastermind last July 17, cheering for each other's private successes, however big or small. What are you thoughts on community-building? Let's connect! #community #communitybuilding
