Podcast: Facing Fear with Tech After Five
Aug 24 all-day
Online
Have you got a big idea that’s going nowhere? What are you afraid of? Something is holding you back.  Do you know what it is? We reference a Stoic exercise, Premeditatio Malorum, which means premeditation of evils. Tim Ferriss did a TED talk proposing an exercise he calls Fear Setting. We take those ideas and discuss what’s going on in our heads. Why do we get stuck and how do we overcome it? We talk about Resistance and how we can make our fears specific and analyze them and overcome them.

Upstate SC Entrepreneurs [Virtual] Networking
Aug 25 @ 8:30 pm – 9:30 pm
Online

Join us in this newly created, bi-weekly networking event series!

Over our last two networking calls, a common theme that has emerged is the potential for establishing referral partnerships through networking with the other members in this Meetup group.

This concept is intended to be mutually beneficial as you get to know the products / services that other members provide for their business, and they get to better understand the products / services you provide as well. As needs are identified through the normal course of business, we can help each other (and our clients) by connecting people to trusted resources.

For this to be the most effective, it requires more attendance for our bi-weekly calls. Those of us on the last call set a challenge for ourselves to reach out to our networks to get more participation for the next call. If you’ve been thinking about joining to see how this group is turning around, the Aug. 25 call is the one to attend!

Everyone will have a few minutes to introduce themselves and their business, and then share an “elevator speech” version of your products and services, and typical clients that might make good referral candidates.

We look forward to seeing you on the call and hearing more about your business!

Note: This series will be held virtually until we can safely hold in-person events. You should be able to join via video or phone-only through the Zoom link. Please feel free to reach out with questions or issues connecting.

The Greenville Investor's Business Daily Meetup Group Monthly Meetup

We are located at 124 Verdae Blvd. It is about a block from the intersection with Laurens Road. There is a big sign for Webster University on the building. It sits right next to the Greenville First building and right across Verdae Blvd from the Super Bi-Lo. Mapquest maps it accurately but Google Maps shows the location inaccurately near the other end of Verdae so use Mapquest to get directions to the building. Once there, come up to the 5th floor. We’re in suite 504. If you have any trouble getting into the building, try calling us at[masked]
