BYOBN was invite to attend the Chocolate Blues and Business Networking Festival. Is going to be next Wednesday, February 17th, at the Norris Centers over 1,500 local business professionals are gathering for what promises to be one of the largest and most fun networking events ever to come to Austin. Everyone with BYOBN is invited and there is NO charge for any of you to participate!

This event is a 7 year old event that annually tours 20 cities in the country. The event is called The Chocolate Blues and Business Networking Festival. It features live blues music, gourmet chocolate, open networking, networking games, speed networking, a business brainstorming circle, a business expo with vendors on display, a wine tasting, a gourmet popcorn tasting, a giant business card exchange, appointment setting stations and an opportunity for you to connect with over 1,500 local business decision makers.

This event is not open to the general public and normally there is a $25 fee to attend, however, you can request a VIP Pass directly from my website, which will allow you to get in free when you say BYOBN.

I suggest that you bring 200-300 business cards and your appointment books. You will leave with appointments-not just a bunch of cards! Sorry, but no literature, postcards or fliers are permitted of any kind, except from the vendors in our expo.

Hope you will join us, we've had tens of thousands of people attend Chocolate Blues over the years and we've always gotten rave reviews.

Questions, contact me anytime. THE TIME AND LOCATION, DIRECTIONS AND VIP PASS REQUEST FORM are on my website at: http://www.chocolateb...
