Meetup.com is one of my favorite marketing resources for many reasons. Perusing the various groups listed on the site will allow you to locate a specific demographic of people who are interested in specific topics. Not only can you join and interact with the groups online you can actually “meet up” in person for networking, sharing resources and more. It’s the perfect tool to help you with your market research!
I’ve met a number of fabulous business people through Meetup and attracted a few new ideal clients as well. After learning more about Meetup, what if you decide you want to step up your networking a notch and attend an event? And instead of just attending a Meetup, what if you decide you want to host your own?
I have just the resource for you! Check out this article published by Mashable.com:

Especially when you present yourself as THE resource attendees are looking for to solve their most pressing challenges. In person networking should be a regular part of your monthly marketing strategy.
