Hi Sandy,
Thank you so much for your post. I've replied to you offline about another new group that is for MSPs. There has been a bit of confusion because I have been posting about both
To clarify for everyone, this group is for Non-MSPs, which means business owners who are using Method solely for their own business. If you are interested, please contact me and let me know if you would prefer to meet on January 22 or 29.
There are another set of groups that are for MSPs that are going extraordinarily well. Fran Reed and I host the first that we named with our tongues-in-cheek: Not-So-West-Coast Method Group, because it was an offshoot of a West Coast group. From that sprang a group hosted by Eileen Sass and Steve Blaustein called (say it with me...) the Not-So-East-Coast Method Group. Each group filled up to 10 members right away and now we are starting a third group to be named later. Carol Oliver and David Gutierrez will be hosting that group. I believe they are already full and they haven't had their first meeting yet, but they can put names on the waiting list. So, if you are an MSP and are interested in joining a networking group, contact Carol or David and ask to be put on the waiting list.
The common thread of both types of groups are that there are no fees. They are solely for education and networking. The MSPs have really come together as groups and created some strong business relationships. Our vision for the Non-MSP group is to emphasize education and answering user's questions in a way that compliments the other resources provided by Method Integration.
I hope this helps untangle any confusion. Please feel free to contact me if you are not sure which group would be better for you.
