    How to throw a cocktail networking party (and make new friends)

    How to throw a cocktail networking party (and make new friends)

    I share my easy to follow process on how to host cocktail parties that grow your network.

    In the past 18 months, I hosted 8 of them across different cities. Most of the guests I had never met in person, but they were all interesting people I wanted to meet. They are a great way to deepen relationships and help bridge connections with other people. You can host one with these simple to follow steps.

    The original interview was a conversation I had with Michal Domanski on his Doman Network show.

    This episode is powered by Planable. Head over to Planable.io and sign up for a no strings attached free trial.

    If you don't know Adriana Tica, you should. She is one of the best b2b copy writers on the planet. In this conversation, Adriana shares:

    - the importance of writing to one person and being transparent in marketing efforts
    - examples of companies that are successfully blurring the lines between B2B and B2C, such as Groove HQ and Basecamp
    - when writing content, it is important to focus on one person and their pain points, rather than trying to appeal to a broad audience
    - growing an online audience can have its challenges, including dealing with hate and managing time effectively

    This was a really fun conversation. Adriana, thanks for coming on the show!

    Would you move to New York without a job to follow your dreams?
     Well in my 20s I was crazy enough to do that. In this interview with Andy Chiang from the Foreign Founders podcast, Andy and I dive into my Huckleberry Finn days as a kid to flying to Europe with only a $100 in my wallet. We then get into how I made it in New York and how I ended up in Romania. 
     
    This was a really fun conversation. Andy, thanks for having me on your show!
