What is your name?
My name is Mike Levy. (Visit my profile)

How did you hear about Linking Raleigh, NC? Why did you decide to become a member?
I found LinkingRaleighNC when searching LinkedIn for Triangle networking groups. I decided to become a member because LinkingRaleighNC was the premier networking group in the Triangle and offered several beneficial features, such as the job board and great articles, as well as sponsoring and holding different kinds of events where people can meet, learn about each other, and help each other.

What kind of connections are you hoping to make by being a member of Linking Raleigh, NC?
I would like to meet people who I can become friends and partners with, providing each other with support and encouragement, whether employed or working-on-becoming-employed. I want to connect with people who have a passion for what they do and for life, and who are willing to share that with others.

If you are lucky enough to work for an organization large enough to have a dedicated resource or resources to the marketing and PR function then you can just skip this read.  However, for the many of us who are small business owners or sole practitioners the struggle to balance marketing/overhead-related activities with billable hours is never ending.

We all acknowledge the primary goal of the entire marketing flurry is to gain access to paying gigs.  And, once you land the client well, there is an expectation of delivery of goods and services.  I am not saying anything that we all don’t already know; already intrinsically struggle with on a daily basis.  We’ve heard it all:  “Feast or Famine” …  “When it rains it pours”….   And, we all continuously look for ways to ‘fix’ the problem – to somehow not repeat it.  When we’re ‘feasting’ it’s hard to imagine the impending ‘famine’ lurking right around the corner.
