Local Coffee Shop Recommendations
We've started another of our initiatives to help members meet offline to create and enhance business relationships.
The goal will be for inSide919 to create constructive relationships with Locally Owned Coffee Shops... all across the 919.
If you know of one (preferably one you frequent) please post below in the following format:
Name of Coffee Shop
Owners Name if known
Street Address
Town
Phone Number
Let the Coffee Shop owner know you've recommended them so we don't look like a "cold call" :)
[there is NO cost for them to participate]
They will be added to this page - feel free to share this with them.
We intend to encourage inSiders to meet Tuesday mornings (when you can) from 8:30am - 10:00 at the Coffee Shop closest to where they live or work and meet their business neighbors.
These will be informal and without structure - if you can't get there till 9:00am, that's fine, if you have to leave early that's fine as well. This is what you'd do if you lived in a small town :).
Keep in mind that you will be able to take the "conversation" back online here via; Comment Walls, Friend requests and personal internal email.
There is NO cost for them to participate - our gain is that they will want to refer us to their business customers who might benefit from membership here.
Cross-pollination marketing if you will.
They will of course need to become members of inSide919 in order to fully benefit from my plans.
Thanks!
I just launched www.LocalCoffeeBreak.com in order to have a place an inSider can direct a Coffee Shop owner to in order to learn about what I'd like to do. So... simply pass this link onto any owner you know. It is a bit rough now, but I'll add more as we grow.

They are locally owned so we'd love to have them. I've not been in a Daylight Donut, do you know if they have room for up to 20 people dropping in and visiting?
Since you know the owners can you share with them what we're doing to be sure they are interested. The next step would be for them to join inSide919 and then I'll take it from there. Thanks!

I would like to recommend Hereghty's Patisserie (www.hereghty.com) in the Glenwood Village Shopping Center on Glenwood Ave in Raleigh (just 1 mile from 440). The owner's name is Brian Hereghty and the number is 919.781.5850. Tell him Susan from Calm and Sense recommended you list him (I am two doors down). Their coffee & pastries are AMAZING and they have plenty of tables and chairs.
