MBA's Networking LUAU
Aloha. It's time again for the MBA annual luau in Manayunk...and the Phillie Phanatic wants IN.
That's right. Forget the doldrums of August. You're looking for new business and our Phillies are in the
hunt for Red October. MBA's Manayunk luau is just the place on a warm summer evening.
And yes...the Phanatic will be there from 6:30 - 7:30 doing his own kind of networking.
Let the Phanatic's antics help make your evening fun and profitable. With attendance last year over 100,
the luau has become one of the Alliance's most popular business networking events.
What better place to pitch your business and play a little catch with Philly's own green monster.

Business Connections Groups - A No-Brainer? We Think So...
Cold calls or warm visits - a no-brainer? It might be. Here are six more reasons why we think so.
1 - You'll receive qualified leads (it's a rule).
2 - Only one business type per group (no fistfights).
3 - Those 20 people all know 20 more people who need your widget.
4 - Most meetings are in the morning.
Time enough to grab your leads and breakfast and arrive at your office before the morning mail.
5 - All your leads group members are business owners like you. A good way to exchange brilliant thoughts.
6 -There's no obligation. Your first visit is FREE, then you can decide.
MBA has area Business Connections Groups within the Delaware Valley. These groups help member companies build their business by providing an opportunity to network by exchanging pre-qualified sales leads. Most groups meet twice a month and offer members a uniquely exclusive networking opportunity. Members enjoy breakfast, networking and a leads exchange that can result in new business opportunities. This is one more way MBA members can use their Alliance membership to grow their business.
There is a $25 annual leads group fee plus breakfast costs. For more information, contact MBA's Hazel Smarowsky at (800) 533-3732 ext. 103 or e-mail hsmarowsky@mbainc.org.
