FREE Small Business Owners Gathering✨
This is a new group, for people who own businesses and would like to occasionally talk to other people who own businesses without feeling like they’re at a networking event. You can come with questions, ideas, half-baked schemes, or absolutely nothing except a bag of chips. We’d love your help collaborating to find a way forward.
🗓️November 7th, 4-5:30pm
Come hang out with other values-driven small business owners at Electric Cottage Collective, 82 Pleasant Street, 2nd Floor, Brunswick ME. Bring a snack or drink to share and come meet some of the other folks in our local business ecosystem.
The plan:
✨ Make friends
✨ Eat snacks
✨ Swap ideas, resources, and mutual support
✨ Talk about the weirdness of running a small business
✨ Brainstorm ways we can help each other
✨ Scheme about what we might want to do together next
This is hosted by Liz, owner of Electric Cottage Collective, Kerry, owner of The Bothán Collective, and Michelle of Michelle Quigley Integrative Bodywork. We’ve been getting together to talk about how we can support each other’s businesses, and thought, hey, maybe there are more of you out there?
We’re hoping to build a bigger web of local businesses that care about things like community, creativity, equity, sustainability, collective care, and making the world a little less bleak. Businesses that are interested in doing something meaningful with the space they occupy — and maybe having a little fun while they’re at it.
