I won a contest with global Entrepreneurs’ Organization (EO) and British Air. How? I got an email from Meaghann Scherrer who works in communication’s at EO global. She asked me to forward it around to the chapter, which I did. I didn’t look at the email until I got home later that evening and found that it was a contest for EO members.
Called “Face to Face,” the contest was geared for entrepreneurs who want to do more business in Europe. Since my book, “Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Social Media but were afraid to ask…” is sold on Borders UK, and since I am the host of an Internet TV show produced in London, I thought that it would be good to connect, do some book signings and meet up with some people to do business with.
When the list came out a few weeks later, I was shocked to see that my name was on it as one of the winners. Ever since, I’ve been reaching out to dozens and dozens of people would be a good fit for HJMT COMMUNICATIONS, LLC.
I reached out to EO UK. (EO is an international organization of entrepreneurs under the age of 50 with gross profits of $1million – $25million. There are more than 7,000 members worldwide.) I got about 10 emails back and then found out that EO UK was going to organize a meet up on the 16th. I also emailed PR firms in London to see if we could collaborate. In addition, I reached out to the two bookstores in London for book signings and my producer to get an appointment.
Hopefully, with all this business stuff, I’ll be able to tour London. (London is one of those cities I’ve never visited before….)
So come September 15 – Hello London!
