Hi Denver crew!!!!!!!!!!! We should probably plan another one of these soon as summer is coming to a close. I added someone new who I 'think' is located in Denver. Sorry if I have the wrong person, @Nicole Thomas

#houston - July 12, 2024 at 05:49 PM

I can probably come your way @Stephanie Brewer What's your schedule like @Anissa Alvarez? Just text me. We can even do a group text if ya'll want. Signing off now.

#houston - July 12, 2024 at 05:48 PM

Yay! So glad ya'll both have power. My friend in Pearland only lost it a few hours. We are getting ready to leave. My number is <tel:8187201107|818-720-1107>. I may not be on until later Monday, so that's the best way to reach me.

#houston - July 12, 2024 at 05:22 PM

I'm still heading in if anyone is available to meet up. I'll be in Pearland to start, but can head in the downtown direction as well. I'll have a car my first week. Just not sure how the hurricane has affected different areas regarding electricity.

#houston - July 12, 2024 at 05:21 PM

@Anissa Alvarez @Stephanie Brewer @Amanda Lopez hope you are all well and your homes safe. My friend's house gotten broken into last night in Kingwood. Apparently no lights there and looters 😞

#houston - July 12, 2024 at 05:20 PM

Hi @Susan Bell how are you and your family? Still doing damage control from the hurricane?

#denver - June 17, 2024 at 09:24 PM

Hi @Matt Basil! Me too. Ladies, please make a suggestion on what works best for you.

#denver - June 17, 2024 at 09:21 PM

Ok, now I just need to get people to respond to a new date to meet up. I am good with Stem Ciders again. It was fun and tasty. @Casey Hibbard @Kati Jacobson @Matt Basil @Amber Champney. I think Casey said she could do the 23 of June or a weekday.

#denver - June 10, 2024 at 05:42 PM

@Amber Champney I know you are in the Broomfield area, yes? Wanted to loop you in.

#denver - June 07, 2024 at 09:11 PM

So sorry about your ankle, @Casey Hibbard. We can always do hiking another time too, and just do a happy hour. We went to Stem the first time and it was fun, @Kati Jacobson, so no problem going again. We can also still aim for Four Noses too. They only have food trucks though. We could do Sunday the 23.......or a weekday. Any weekday preferences? @Matt Basil ?

#denver - June 06, 2024 at 09:36 PM

No, but I was coming in to do that now, @Kati Jacobson! I'd love to aim for something the weekend of June 22 or June 29...that's if we want to do a short hike and then meet up post hike for a beer. I think we had suggested maybe Boulder and then 4 Noses in Superior, but we can change all this. @Matt Basil @Casey Hibbard. But, since Matt is in Erie and Casey in Boulder, we can also just meet up at a Lafayette/Erie brewery. I have a few others on LinkedIn that actually showed interest this time!

#open-share - May 28, 2024 at 09:13 PM

What @Shannon Howard said. We are using a lot of customer quotes, videos, sharing reviews. I would like to do more of what @Vera Flores was saying about a customer showcase...sharing customer-focused content. This is especially good when you know a customer is wanting to get some social media 'love.'

#houston - May 23, 2024 at 06:25 PM

I missed these, sorry. We could do that with wework, but more casual not to. Either way. And so cool you both know one another already 🙂 I will do some work today on finding more Houston folks.

#denver - May 17, 2024 at 01:14 PM

Ok @Matt Basil and @Casey Hibbard let's build this around our schedules. I will consult the gals on LinkedIn and see if a few of them can join the scheduling so we can add more folks. I have 7 CMA peeps that refuse the Slack, lol. We can set for mid June, based on your schedules. Maybe Saturday June 22 is a good target to get both the hike/beer in? Matt can just replace his 'solo' walk with our meetup, hee hee.

#houston - May 16, 2024 at 11:33 PM

Excellent. Slowly searching for people. I have invited Amanda, but not spoken with her yet.

#houston - May 16, 2024 at 08:20 PM

I'll be there from July 15-26.

#houston - May 16, 2024 at 08:20 PM

Welcome @Amanda Lopez I saw you attended the speed dating event today AND you were in the Houston area (I think)? If so, I am rounding up other CMA folks in the area for a happy hour. I am doing this where I live in Denver, so thought it would be fun while I was visiting family and friends in Houston too! Then ya'll can keep it going.

#denver - May 15, 2024 at 07:42 PM

Nice. Sorry you missed us, we went last in that group. We had Jeanne N Talbot. She's been our customer for 20 years through several companies, so it was fun to showcase her. But overall, I loved getting to hear the customer stories. Seeing how they are utilizing the tools is helpful. And so often people have different use cases, so getting to see the different approaches is nice too. And of course, my favorite part of the day was when the baby appeared at the end of Andru's presi, the cute factor was elevated in brand new ways. That baby was a real cherub.

#general - May 15, 2024 at 06:34 PM

It was fun. I loved the idea of bringing customers as dates. Great way to shake things up.

#general - May 15, 2024 at 06:01 PM

Wow, Mary, you really covered it! How are you enjoying it so far? I love the new approach with bringing a date.

#denver - May 15, 2024 at 05:58 PM

Did anyone else attend Captivate Collective's Speed Dating event today? I know I saw you were in there @Camille Shortridge. Anyone else? How did you enjoy it? I kinda like breaking it up into two days and having customers attend.

#houston - May 14, 2024 at 08:18 PM

Hi @Anissa Alvarez, welcome! I am just starting to round up Houston CMA folks. If you know any, please invite them. I'll be in Houston between July 15-26 so would love to plan ahead for a meet-up then. My dad is downtown, my best friend in Pearland, and family in Kingwood, so I am pretty spread out as far as location. But I am open for driving too.

#denver - May 14, 2024 at 08:08 PM

And since 4noses is dog friendly, we can bring the pups too of we want. I may leave mine home because he is pretty cray, cray.

#denver - May 14, 2024 at 08:07 PM

@Matt Basil @Camille Shortridge @Casey Hibbard @Christine Medina and everyone else too! Interested in doing a Saturday morning hike in Boulder sometime in early June and then a beer at Four Noses? That will be a drive for you, Camille, so if we want to make the hike not as far that it is fine too. I'm just not as familiar with trails locally. I usually drive to hike, ha! Anyway, would love to know the interest/availability in this.

#general - May 13, 2024 at 12:42 PM

Just curious what tools folks are using for email marketing?

#welcome - May 06, 2024 at 06:14 PM

Calling all Houston CMA pros. Join the Houston channel and meet other Houston CMA pros and plan happy hours. We've done it in Denver and it is loads of fun.

#general - May 06, 2024 at 06:13 PM

Hi Everyone!!! We recently started a Denver channel here so we could plan CMA happy hours to meet other peeps locally. We've had several meetups so far and they have been great. Just a handful of us each time. I wanted to start this same thing in Houston, mainly because I visit family there throughout the year and thought it would be cool to duplicate what we are doing in Denver. I am going to be visiting the last two weeks in July so was hoping to get it going by then.............and then the Houston peeps can plan their own happy hours! So, if you are from Houston or near there, come join the Houston channel and say hi!

#welcome - April 25, 2024 at 07:38 PM

Welcome, @Dave Seaton! Once you get to Colorado Springs, join the Denver group here in Mary's Slack. You'd have to drive, but there are a bunch of Denver CMA pros who casually meet up and we'd love to have you!

#denver - April 25, 2024 at 04:41 PM

I know we just had a meet-up, but we should plan another one soon and get more folks interested! Also, we can add hiking too as we roll into the summer. Four Noses is a yummy brewery in Broomfield, Barrels and Bottles is tasty in Golden.........looked like there was a Probst location too near where we were last time. I'll toss it out for suggestions! @Kamrin Coffey @Camille Shortridge @Kati Jacobson @Amber Champney @Nina Andres @Christine Medina @Casey Hibbard @Matt Basil @Nate Magee @Emma Miller-Crimm @Emily Harper. Also, @Casey Hibbard isn't there a popular hike in Boulder called Green Mountain? Might be interesting to check out this summer for the more outdoorsy of us.

#general - April 22, 2024 at 08:00 PM

I guess that one's kinda settled, lol!

#jobs - April 17, 2024 at 04:27 PM

Yes. I have a bunch in my LinkedIn chat who have been naughty and not signed up here yet. Grrrr.

#denver - April 17, 2024 at 04:25 PM

Awesome! Matt lives in Erie too, and we met at Acreage a few months ago. But a lot of folks are closer to Downtown I think. I'm on the Broomfield/Westminster border.

#denver - April 17, 2024 at 02:09 PM

I was just coming to add you, @Kati Jacobson! Welcome. We'd love to have you join us. Right now there are a bunch of us, and smaller groups seems to be the way it is going. Which isn't bad. We can start forming relationships tat way, and hopefully expand this over time 🙂 What part of town are you in?

#denver - April 12, 2024 at 05:28 PM

I had so much fun last night, can't wait to do it again. I am trying to be better about posting on LinkedIn, so prolly gonna share our photo a bit later 🙂 Have a safe trip to London, @Matt Basil! And, of course, have fun!

#denver - April 11, 2024 at 09:24 PM

Haven't heard from you since the thread's start; hope you are able to come @Matt Basil

#denver - April 11, 2024 at 09:16 PM

Heading out now in case I am a few minutes late. Coming from Broomfield.

#denver - April 10, 2024 at 09:48 PM

See everyone tomorrow at 4pm, Platte location? My number is <tel:8187201107|818-720-1107> if there are any issues.

#denver - April 06, 2024 at 03:14 AM

So I am guessing Chrstine is right, Platte Street, Camille.

#denver - April 06, 2024 at 03:13 AM

@Camille Shortridge @Christine Medina @Nina Andres Here are the locations from their website: This should tell us which is Rhino. Littleton Lowry Platte Street South Downing Olde Town Arvada

#denver - April 05, 2024 at 06:38 PM

It's the Platte location I believe.r

#denver - April 05, 2024 at 06:37 PM

@Amber Champney the plan is Denver Beer Company at 4pm on Thursday, April 11.

#denver - April 04, 2024 at 04:03 PM

That one sounds good to me, @Nina Andres. I will pass that one on unless I hear otherwise.

#denver - April 02, 2024 at 10:09 PM

@Camille Shortridge which location are we going to?

#denver - April 02, 2024 at 04:49 AM

Now we just need clarification on which Denver Beer location this is?

#denver - April 01, 2024 at 06:57 PM

Hey, which Denver Beer location is this? I have someone wanting to join on the LinkedIn group I have, but didn't know. Guess there are a bunch of them?

#denver - April 01, 2024 at 03:02 PM

Perfect, Thursday the 11th it is! I am going to share the date with about 7 people I am connected with on LinkedIn that have also showed interest but aren't in Mary's channel. I'll take this to them now.

#denver - March 27, 2024 at 05:31 PM

@Camille Shortridge

#denver - March 27, 2024 at 05:30 PM

@Matt Basil @Nate Magee @ @Vikki Lira @Kamrin Coffey @Christine Medina @Emma Miller-Crimm @Emily Harper @Athena Peterson @Casey Hibbard Ok I think I have tagged most of us. So Nina and I want to set up something at the Denver Beer Co. for 4pm on April 3 (Wed), April 10 (Wed) or April 11 (Th). Thoughts?

#denver - March 27, 2024 at 05:27 PM

Ok, so you and I are in.............let's find some more CMA peeps to join, lol. I'm going to tag everyone now.

#denver - March 27, 2024 at 05:26 PM

Denver Beer Company was one that was mentioned a few months back, so why don't we do that one?
