Mastermind Group: Cincinnati Area

[jasonl70]

I'm in columbus... I visit west chester often to visit my brother, so I'd be interested in any weekend get togethers.

There's a real estate invetors club in columbus, and from what I remember they arrange speakers, etc, for their get togethers. Of course the IM community is much smaller, but it would be cool if people could volunteer to talk about some sort of topic they have experience in. I'm a programmer and web developer, so I'm sure I could help some people out

Hi All!

Since we have a couple of folks from Kentucky and Indiana - we were thinking of meeting around the TriCounty area of Cincinnati - would that be okay for you - Brett and Jason?

As of right now - the 28th is looking good for a possible date - does that work for you?

I have been online full time since 1994 - everything from SEO to affiliate marketing, payment processing, EBay - you name and I've probably done it if it has to do with the internet!

PM me if you want to get together -

Melody

Hi Melody,

I would be open for the 28th. I am in Fairfield area so I'm not to far from the tri-county area. I read earlier in the post that no one really knew what a mastermind group was. I would be glad to explain how a mastermind works. Masterminding is awesome!!! I would be glad to meet with you and whoever else decides to attend.

And if you are interested in finding out more about how a mastermind works. PM me.
Talk soon

Hi Joshua -

No one has followed up on the date of the 28th, and at this point, I would have to do some serious shuffling to make it work - but I would do so if others want to meet -

And, yes, I do know what a Mastermind group is - but can't seem to get any traction in Cincy area to form one after months of trying!

Melody

[Melody]

okay everyone - we obviously missed March - is anyone interested in meeting in Cincinnati ANYTIME???? Evenings, mornings, weekends - I do this full time so I am open on my meeting time!

Melody

[MichaelHiles]

I'm game for a meetup.

[jmorris18]

Hi Melody ,
I am writing to let you know I have sent you a PM. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Thanks,
Jason

Im in Ohio, Im down to meet.Ill stay tuned

[EquestrianGal]

Hey, I'm in Ohio - let me know if or when you all decide to meet up. This weekend is 4th of July so that isn't good for me but maybe another weekend if it is planned?

[MichaelHiles]

Okay, I am setting a date and time for a meeting. I have several people that are not WF members that are interested, so I figured that if we collectively wait for a group to do something, it won't happen.

Friday, July 10th @ 6pm at the Caribou Coffee on Reed Hartman & Cornell in the plaza next to the Chipotle. They have wifi, and being in Blue Ash, they won't be as busy on a Fri at that time as everyone goes home to elsewhere.

RSVP not necessary, but definately appreciated. I will be there with my own posse.

Agenda for the meeting, initial introductions and some expectation setting/mission for the group.

[Melody]

LOL - after trying for months to get people involved - I stopped checking in and missed the posts -

I will TRY to be there - unfortunately, I will be in Columbus that day and the traffic coming back can be unpredictable at best

I will be there with my own posse - aka, my hubby & biz partner, Bob

Melody

[MichaelHiles]

I've got three coming so far from my end. The plaza is Regency Commons... 11257 Reed Hartman Highway, 45242

Caribou Coffee: Location Detail

Even if nobody else shows, I will be there, and I will set another date to do it again, and again, until it happens. Sometimes you gotta just drag it kicking and screaming into reality.

[Melody]

It's meeting day folks!! Are we still on for tonight?

Melody

[MichaelHiles]

Yep! I've had several in my local LinkedIn network express interest as well. If everyone shows, this will be an interesting mix, a lot of corporate types who are interested.

[Melody]

Great - will see you there!
Melody

[MichaelHiles]

Great meetup guys and gals! Thanks to Bob, Melody & Dana for a great evening of ideas and possibilities for the future. Look forward to the next one where hopefully some of the others who expressed interest but were unable to come out can join us.

Onward and upward.

[MichaelHiles]

Per our discussion at the last meeting, the group intends to meet again in roughly 3 weeks. This will put the date tentatively at Friday, July 31st from the last meeting date.

Same bat time, same bat channel.

We'd love to see the other Cincy Warriors come out and meet & greet.

July 31st, 6pm at the Caribou Coffee in Blue Ash on Reed-Hartman.

Once again, RSVP not required, but appreciated.

[Melody]

Michael - Just sent you an email! As things stand right now - we are on board for 7/31

[Todd Sampson]

Hey guys,
I have been looking for a mastermind group, but unfortunately have been
unable to find one in Columbus. Mind if I crash yours?

-Todd Sampson

[razztek]

I live in Anderson on the east side. Would be interested in a local meeting.

[JakeDaly]

I also live in Anderson, when I'm in Cincinnati, and would love to meet-up sometime in December when I'm back in town.

[ed41143]

Hey everyone, did this group ever take off. Looks like there may have been two meets in July, but nothing since.

We are in Ky and would be willing to drive to Cinci for a meet, but would like to know the kinds of things people in the group are into.

We are into SEO for offline clients, and putting on seminars for groups, with a touch of affiliate marketing.

Have been marketing on the net for many years and work with my son on our projects.

Anyone else into our niche's?

Thanks,
Ed

[GailTrahd]

I'd love to know about the group as well. Just found this part of the WF - I live in the Loveland area (NE side of Cincy) but willing to drive.

Gail

[MichaelHiles]

We had an informal lunch between a few local WF folks about a week ago, but nothing broadly advertised. I am game to coordinate another meetup if there's enough interest.

I usually just pick a date, time, place, and announce that this is where I will be. Come if you want. I'm nobody special, just someone that realizes that trying to make an event happen via consensus is like winning a scratch off lottery ticket.

[GailTrahd]

Hi Michael -

I'd love to meet others in the area who are doing what we do. If you guys schedule another date how do I find out about it?

Thanks!

Gail

[ed41143]

Hey Gail,

I have been trying to catch up with them too. I am in KY and would be willing to travel, just need more info about when and where, etc.

Thanks,
Ed

[MichaelHiles]

I realize that it's a problem trying to coordinate any and all local stuff when the only way that people have to get updates and communicate is to constantly check this thread.

[GailTrahd]

THANKS Michael! Signed up

[buzzpoint]

Just found this thread.Seems like everyone gave up?

[BrianTubbs]

Hey Everyone,

My family and I recently completed a move back to the DC area. I wish everyone here the very best.

Happy Thanksgiving and Good Luck in all your Endeavours!

-Brian

[brik2500]

Hey,


newbie to Warrior...just observed the old posts...

let me know if the Cincinnatians or

Tri-Staters in general want to do

an IM or in person meetup....

I'm game.

[workson]

Hey guys what happened, did y'all just shut it down? am I late to the party? Just found this thread and will like to meet up. In Lexington KY but wouldn't mind driving up to Cincy.

[Melody]

Okay - the New Year is just around the corner -anyone game to get something started in Cincy in 2011??

Melody

[cscarpero]

I'm open to a meeting. Weekdays work better for me. I'm in the Dayton area so northern suburbs preferred.

[Don Schenk]

My office is on Hamilton Ave, just off Ronald Reagan Hwy. I have a large room in which we can seat up to 35 people at tables. It is less than 20 minutes from most of Greater Cincinnati.

Right now it is set up with a group of tables together for 20 or so people, and I have microphones hanging from the ceiling, and audio equipment to record the sessions.

I and a cohort present marketing workshops to Cincinnati business owners in that room, and record the mastermind session for everyone to have copies of what went on.

We could do the same for a local IMers group. It can be during the week or on weekends. Evenings are okay too. I have a couple sessions coming up for which I will be out of town, but we can work around those.

Hey Don,

Sounds like a great idea to me. I'd be up for something. During the daytime works best for me.

[Melody]

Cincinnati area Warriors!! We tried this a couple of years ago - anyone interested in getting together to share resources, ideas - maybe get involved in offline seminars etc?

I am full-time Ecom/IM - hours flexible - open to location. Maybe a 'happy hour' get together downtown as first meet-up?
