Now that events are back in-person, are you going to them? This episode’s guest, Aya Robinson of Opry Entertainment Group, shares why going to events in your community is more than just about showing up. It’s a way to interact with and learn from the people near you. For example, when Aya moved to Nashville, she was able to attend events with associations like the local American Marketing Association chapter. It’s a great way to meet new people if you’re new to the job or the area in general. Plus, outreach is a huge part of growing local organizations. If you’re in charge of your organization or club, how do you expand? Who should you contact? The answer is usually the marketing teams at related companies. And, Aya shares some pretty valuable advice about reaching out to others, even if you feel hesitant.
