Hometown Networking
How Many Hometown Regulars would agree, the government is corrupt and not working for the people?
That’s right, the Majority!
As I run errands,
Merch On,
Paying Cash,
and Striking Up Conversations,
I meet like-minded people everywhere.
I even pull into driveways,
or parking lots where I see flags up!
After a pleasant conversation,
I’ll have their contacts on a note in my phone,
and start updating them on local initiatives.
These people are lonely, frustrated and losing hope. They need human connection, support and community.

In a future article, I will discuss the benefits of a Local Newsletter for each hometown,. Local Newsletters, showcasing all initiatives, for all groups and individuals can be sent to one place and sent to likeminded contacts as they are gathered.
Local Meetings and Events are excellent places to gather contacts. Here the old-fashioned contact form can save time.
I still prefer the person-to-person method, but if you can’t speak with everyone, passing around a contact form is helpful.
I like to include a section for Expertise, Interest, and Resource. This is for the Barter and Trade Directory, which I’ll expand on in an upcoming article.
