What is the best approach to recruiting members for a web-based professional organization?
Q. We are in the pre-launch phase for a professional business organization targeting the technology driven small business.

A. Being that you are planning on targeting technology driven small businesses, you should place a higher percentage of your efforts online, though some real world interaction should not be completely ruled out. I would recommend that you use the technological expertise that your founders may have to develop online media that catches the eye and impresses others. Use social media to your advantage. 1.

A. well...if she's bi and you're bi...then it shouldn't be weird. She might like you too. I'm bi but I don't have anyone that's bi near me. If i liked one of my friends and they were bi...then i would just go up and tell them that i had feelings for them. It shouldn't be odd if she's bi too! Don't be afraid, go for it! If anything, all she can say is that she just wants to be friends. Good Luck!

A. Approach the person you know and wait to be introduced. If they have any manners they will introduce you. Try to listen at first and then join in when you feel comfortable.
