		<description>Maidul,

Are you trying to get in touch with meeting planners at companies or managers at event venues? There are effective strategies for both, just let me know what your objective is.

		<description>Thanks for these tips.  I had just been starting to think about doing something like this with some vendors I like and trust.  (I'm an event planner.)  Your ideas really expand my horizons, though.  I'm going to put together a plan and pitch it to my favorite vendors to see if we can all make some more money.  Thanks for sparking the ideas.</description>

		<description>Hi Emee

Thanks for the note. I like your idea of sharing office space with affiliated business owners.
The "Share and Enjoy" button is called &lt;a href="http://yoast.com/wordpress/sociable/" rel="nofollow"&gt;"Sociable,"&lt;/a&gt; available at &lt;a href="http://yoast.com/wordpress/sociable/" rel="nofollow"&gt;http://yoast.com/wordpress/sociable/&lt;/a&gt;.

It works for Wordpress ... I think you can use &lt;a href="http://everything.typepad.com/blog/2009/02/social-media-sharethis-typepad-digg-facebook.html" rel="nofollow"&gt;Share This&lt;/a&gt; on your typepad blog.

BTW ... to thank you for commenting, I put a SEO optimized link to your site on a new &lt;a href="http://brianmcgovern.com/about/event-resources/" rel="nofollow"&gt;Event Resources&lt;/a&gt; page. The more links, the merrier! Thanks.

		<description>Great tips, Brian! I do this in a couple of different ways, in the brick and mortar world, I partner with some other businesses to have an office space (check out http://thebridalloft.net), as well as many of the benefits you mention.  I also participate in a virtual networking group with its own brand (http://simplychicportland.com) .  These are great ways to create community with vendors, share costs, and market to more clients.

By the way, where did you get that nifty "Share and Enjoy" widget? Very cool stuff on your blog.</description>
