Getting out there.
 The meeting proved to be excellent. Yes, it was in large part because the format was good: round the room introductions followed by a requirement that everyone say who they saw as a customer, partner and vendor. That certainly removed the main blockade of people seeking only to take and not give.
(Although there were several people who said, "We already have all the vendors we need." Come on. I mean come on. I hate hearing buyers say that and I hate hearing sales people repeat it as a reason not to sell.
"They have everyone they need." If that's true, we should all just pack up and accept that we must have acheived utopia. Since I don't see any sign of unrelenting happiness permiating the ether, then maybe, just maybe, there's room in the market for one more new chewing gum, restaurant, telecom company, yada yada yada...)
But to my original point, it was about getting myself out there and repeating my message. I got good feedback and, the key thing, I got to hear myself explain my business. And that is the central tenant of business therapy: that to know what you are thinking, you have to express it.
Kind of like a blog.
