About this Event
Join Social Media Breakfast Houston and Cup of Joey for a one-of-a-kind morning of learning, connection, and coffee at The Ion. Together with Joey Sanchez, we’ll explore how to turn online introductions into real-world conversations that lead to real opportunities.
This interactive session combines the best of both worlds: you’ll learn practical LinkedIn strategies from Joey, then break into small groups to put those ideas into action. Come ready to meet new people, share ideas, and build relationships that last long after breakfast is over.
What You’ll Learn
- Create Meaningful LinkedIn Connections: Go beyond “likes” to spark real conversations.
- Show Up with Purpose: Post and engage intentionally to attract the right opportunities.
- Build Offline Momentum: Turn online connections into in-person meetings that matter.
- Grow Your Community: Apply Joey’s “one cup of coffee” philosophy to expand your network with authenticity and impact.
Registration is required for in-person attendance. This session will not be livestreamed, so be sure to join us in person for the full experience!
