If you crave intelligent life in Chicago and are an entrepreneur or solo-preneur  looking for a business community to lift and support your company, here are a few really good reasons to consider joining Big Ooga.

Not all groups are equal.  Not all workshops and teachers are equal.  Both have to be worth your time so you are more successful as a direct result of joining.

Why Us and Why You Should Consider Us

We only offer workshops by top experts.  The WordPress class on Saturday, Jan 29th is taught by a former CIO.  The reason we are offering this particular workshop is that each and every one of us needs to generate relevant and continuous content. This means we will need a platform from which to do it.

Step 1 is building that platform so we can manage our own Internet presence.  The platform must be cost effective, easy to build and flexible enough to customize with our valuable new and evolving content.

By offering one class at a time, in the order of skills needed,  you can learn what you need to learn in the right order.

Our last First Tuesday meeting focused on sequencing. The panel discussion (with the rest of us chiming in) included an SEO expert, a niche brand development expert, our WordPress expert and a technology expert.

We established companies must get their heartbeat on the page and be a valuable resource so people have reasons to continuously  return to you / your presence.  Next is to optimize and market like maniacs virtually and in  IRL (in real life). First step is to get that platform.  We’ll take it to the next step in the next step classes!

You may want to form a learning pod with your classmates beyond the workshop. This is encouraged behavior.

NOW a little about the First Tuesday Big Ooga Events

They are personal.  Each first Tuesday night of the month our group meets and enters the discussion on the topic presented.  Often the night includes a hands-on breakout.  The presenters are focused on presenting info you can use immediately to impact your own business, like the fabulous Carol Roth, who is our keynote next month, Feb 1.  To learn more about Carol: https://www.bigooga.com/community.html

If  you are just starting out, the monthly events and classes will be great for you. If you are a more seasoned professional and entrepreneur, becoming a member is the right way to go. https://www.bigooga.com/signup.html
