The Bizarre, the Ugly, and the Outstandingly Fabulous ways to interact & be seen on LinkedIn! Charlie will highlight for us some horrific examples of profiles gone bad, strange endorsements, and assorted funny stuff.

LinkedIn Business Networking: Last year Karen Klein led us in a couple excellent LinkedIn Intro sessions!  Now learn how LinkedIn increasingly dominates the social networking world for businesses.

CharlieKingCoachingNOTE: All four sessions of the OXp workshops are offered as a package at a huge discount!  Normally valued at $180, only 20 seats are being offered, and for only $79. No discounts given for classes not attended.  OfficeXpats members get to attend these amazing workshops for free, and a few seats may be available at the door to replace no-shows.  Don’t be late grabbing your seat!

BBC Regulars Really Exciting Upcoming Events!

CharlieKingCoachingApril 7-28, OfficeXpats Tuesday@Noon Workshops! Understanding the Elephant: Growing Professionally with LinkedIn. Taught by Charlie King, of Charlie King Coaching. Info and registration: officexpats.com.

OXp WON!  OfficeXpats is the 2014 Chamber of Commerce Small Business of the Year! “It was an honor just to be nominated, and it is kinda crazy that we actually won. We are very excited. This award is based on contribution to the Chamber’s mission, and to the Bainbridge community at large. In our case, it is therefore connected in so many ways to the efforts of our devoted team of ambassadors, and to an informal offshoot of the Chamber, the Bainbridge Business Connection, which meets every Friday morning at OfficeXpats. I’m sure we got a lot of credit for hosting BBC, but the reverse is also true: BBC is a huge supporter of OfficeXpats. I’m very proud of the ongoing partnership.”

Check out visitbainbridge.com! The new Bainbridge Chamber Visitor Information website is up and running, developed by Spiderlilly Web Design. Feedback welcome, so send your ideas and input  to BBC Regular and webmaster Brian Creamer at spiderlilyweb.com. 

NEW – Free WI-FI In Winslow Downtown Core! Thanks to collaboration between the Bainbridge Chamber of Commerce and Kitsap Public Utility District, businesses, residents, and visitors can take advantage of the new Wi-Fi network along parts of Winslow Way and Madison. Look for network called “community-wifi” to access the signal on your computer or mobile device. See coverage MAP for more info. ()

BBC on Facebook: Alice David kindly set up a BBC Facebook destination: friend, post, share, bake, blog, barbecue.  We remember you Alice! (officexpats.com/thank-you-alice-a-true-ambassador-for-community/).
