Boot Ripple

2007-01-30T13:13:04Z

Harper: /* Description */

== Lead ==

[http://community.bootstrapnetwork.com/index.php?page_id=24&tgt=1161889282 Steve Harper]

== Description ==

In the October meeting, Steve led us through a modified version of his successful [http://www.ripplecentral.com 8 Minute Ripple] connection event. It was extremely well received by all who attended. Several requests were made by Bootstrap members to incorporate some aspect of this unique event into our monthly meetings.

So beginning in November we will do just that!

We are excited to announce that we will incorporate the new Boot Ripple into the beginning of every Bootstrap monthly meeting. The Boot Ripple is yet another example of how a collaborative relationship between Bootstrap and a Bootstrapper, providing a product or service of value, can come together to collectively serve, support and enhance the overall offering to our members.

The Boot Ripple will help create new and surprising connections between members of Bootstrap and will serve as an excellent way to get our monthly meetings kick started.

Come discover, create and connect!

The facilitated Boot Ripple will start promptly at 6:45PM so please plan to come early and be ready to Ripple with our growing Bootstrap community!
