In addition to bi-weekly networking meetings, there are also open house events such as this one at the dental office of Dr. Jeffrey Stewart (shown on the far right).

Networking is a valuable way to connect business-to-business whether you’re an architect, dentist, caterer, chiropractor,  graphic designer, handyman, electrician, insurance agent, real estate mogul, or other entrepreneur.  On Saturday, August 14, the Healthy Buzz networking group will be buzzing at Bridgeport Place, 5250 Bridgeport Way West, in University Place.  Meetings are only every other Saturday (not weekly) at 8:30 a.m. and were formerly held at The Greener Bean, in Fircrest, but outgrew the space.  University Place resident Kia Hanson is the owner of the Healthy Buzz.  The bright yellow newsletters have become familiar around Tacoma. Recently, an edition has been launched featuring Lakewood and University Place businesses.  The networking events include an opportunity for each person to speak briefly about their business and to share business cards, brochures, samples, etc.  It is a meaningful way to build the relationships that are at the heart of successful business endeavors today.
