David Merrill's Wilmington Networking Events Calendar 2.0

Want to build your business? How about relationship marketing? One of the best and fastest ways to grow a small to medium-sized business is to go to business networking events.



How to find and choose between networking events is often a concern. In the greater Wilmington, North Carolina area there's a great tool to help. David Merrill, who by day works for Hertz Local as an area manager, has created the Wilmington Networking Event Calendar, which you can find at WilmingtonNetworkingEvents.com.

David had an earlier version of Wilmington Networking Event Calendar that he produced with a Google calendar page, but the new web site has much more, including great descriptions of major area networking groups.

David calls the new release version 2.0 and is already working on 2.1 (I've seen it, it's very cool) but wanted to get 2.0 up and available to help people find where to go for networking in the greater Wilmington area.

So check out Wilmington Networking Event Calendar and if relationship marketing at networking events is in your 2010 business plan, make it a practice to check Wilmington Networking Event Calendar at the beginning of each week.

Cool New Area Networking Event Calendar Is UP!

If you wish for an easy way to keep track of the networking events in the greater Wilmington NC and Bruswick County areas in southeastern North Carolina (and who doesn't?), you wish has been answered.

David Merrill of Wilmington has put up a Google event calendar for local networking events that so far looks great.

David, who can also be found at www.facebook.com/davidmerrill or as @DavidMMerrill (that's two M's two r's and two l's), is a good guy and easy to spot in a crowd. I think, if I look around, I might just have a photo of him. Be right back . . . .

OK, I found one:


Actually I think it may just be David's favorite photo, with Hibiske Insurance Group's Erin Alderman on the left (leaning into the photo) and Star-News social media and breaking news reporter Shannan Bowen on the right.

So, if you know of a networking event coming up, e-mail David.M.Merrill@gmail.com with the info. As he says on the calendar site, "I will gladly add ALL NETWORKING, Ribbon Cuttings and Grand Opening events to the calendar with limited community events. Community events like Downtown @ Sundown and the Azelea Fest that draw large crowds will be added."

Good work, David.
