Hey Maria, hope you can make it to the End of Summer "Social Hour" Trying to get a bunch of inSiders to meet each other offline. It's what I do :)
Welcome, Maria! Check out the groups, answer some questions in the forums--there are plenty of places here to offer something of value to others and form some great relationships. Happy connecting!
Hey Maria! Yes, Barb is correct, find a group that you enjoy and that you feel you can contribute too. That will empower both you and the other folks. Personally, I am in the Twitter It Up and the Make it Profitable Groups. They have very good resources. I also joined the Coffee and Contacts group, b/c I recently joined a Coffee and Contact group that meets weekly. We are originally from Bordentown, NJ (near Trenton). NC is such a beautiful state though, and the people are fantastic! Let me know if I can help in any way! A~
