    What kind of networking events do you guys attend? I've tried BNI, which seems almost like the Masons. Weird vibe there. I've also checked out Yellow Tie, which seems better only because there's no pressure to join. I'm not going to shell out $400/year for some club *before* having any idea if it will help grow my business.

    At least here in STL, it seems most of the people who come to the above-mentioned events are older. That's not a bad thing, but there's a serious lack of younger people involved in younger, more forward-thinking/culturally-driv... organizations.

    The St. Louis art museum has a Young Friends group that I might check out.

    The trouble with many of these networking groups is that to really reap any kind of (supposed) benefits, you've gotta shell out some coin.

    • The problem with networking groups is everyone wants to sell their service and nobody is there to buy services.jamble
    • bni's fucking useless for the likes of our industry. in my op.airey
