The Ins & Outs of Hosting Networking Events with Amanda Smith

Today we are so excited to bring you the fabulous Amanda Smith - Creator of the Dallas Girl Gang, aka the Girl Gang for ALL - You Can Sit With Us ™.  We'll be breaking down Amanda's journey of hosting her first networking event, and how it evolved into now hosting hundreds of networking events within her ride or die community. We also deep dive into what makes a good networking event, how to come up with themes that resonate with your audience, and tips so you can feel empowered to host your very own event! Amanda Smith is an educator by trade turned CEO of her own company, To Gather LLC. Amanda is an expert in connecting, marketing, pitching business, and cultivating community.  After a huge life shift in 2017 and a move to Dallas, Amanda was seeking a community for women that was inclusive and offered resources for career, life, and business- and came up empty. So, she created one herself and called it "Dallas Girl Gang."  Today, DGG has an audience of over 45,000 women across the country.  Now Amanda is bringing "You Can Sit With Us ™" to life across the country and coaching women who are building new businesses.  She is passionate about bringing women together into a meaningful community and lifting one another up. https://www.instagram.com/amandasindallas/ https://www.instagram.com/dallasgirlgang/ www.dreamstoplanspodcast.com www.instagram.com/dreamstoplanspodcast www.facebook.com/groups/dreamstoplanspodcast www.mygirlfriendrenee.com www.kittymeowboutique.com
