RSVPs WILL BE CLOSED AT 1:00 PM, TODAY!
Announcing our 2nd networking reception at the Empire Hotel Rooftop. This time, our rooftop partner is very accommodating and allowing us to have the entire rooftop exclusively for this event taking place between 6:00 - 10:00 PM. Given the capacity of the rooftop, you will probably see some of the biggest networking crowds ever in NYC. Please carefully read the following before you RSVP for the event.
1. Theme
Business oriented. Formal business attire required. RSVP is a must to make it a free event. For people not on the RSVP list, a charge of $10 will apply at the door. As an NYEBN member, you can bring up to 3 guests for free. If two of your guests sign up as NYEBN members at the event, your first drink is on me that night. We will have a laptop ready at the rooftop for sign-up purposes. Feel free to tweet this event or share it on Facebook. We do appreciate it.
2. Name Tags
The old rule still holds. We will continue to mandate high quality name tags at our networking events. If you don't already have a plastic name tag holder, you will need to purchase one when you check in for $1 each. As you can see from the 230 Fifth pictures, the plastic name tags do look better on everybody.
3. Drink Specials
Beer and wine will be in the $5-7 range. Well drinks between $7-8.
4. Others
You must be 21 or older to attend this event. Make sure you bring your ID with you. If you do not want to wait in the line, print out the reminder email (with YES rsvp) or your own RSVP page (a sample) so you can get in immediately. We don't want to see long lines waiting as well.
5. Vendors
No vendor spots are left. Please contact Sue Risdal at Susan at WebStudio13 dot com to request a table at future events.

Another terrific event and venue! Met and spoke with fascinating entrepreneurs about our businesses and how I may be able to help small business owners, sole proprietors and individuals with affordable health insurance. I'm available to met and consult with you so please send me an email. Thank you Andrew!
This was my first meetup and I had a great time! If I didn't get to meet you on Monday, I do professional voiceovers for commercials, presentations, animation, iPhone apps and more, so if you need to make anything your business has to say sound great, feel free to contact me!!
This event was amazing for me, I met valuable contacts and look forward to expanding my resources to create partnerships and raise capital for my company.

Another great meeting. The roof top offers an excellent backdrop and the crowd was enthusiastic, cordial and mixed well. A large cross section of NYC businesses. Andrew does it again

The value of tagging your photo... " You can find thousands of strangers on NYC streets and find thousands of names in the phone directory. Tagging your photo links the two together thus creating name and photo recognition. If you are in business and want to be known, tagging is a powerful tool to get you from a stranger to becoming a household name." -Ramon Francisco
Looks like everyone is posting a message so I don't want to be left out :-) ... I am the guy taking photos of business cards then returning the card (instead of just keeping it like a normal person) & emailing you my own / connecting on LinkedIn while we are still chatting ... if you have an iPhone and want to also pull this party trick, check www.scanbizcards.com or just email me!
The photos I took start photo # 16 Empire Hotel to photo #266. At least 250 photos that made the final cut after the image enhancements. We must only upload clear photos as there is a very high standard of photo excellence. The other photos #1 to #15 were uploaded by Jose Hernandez.
Thank Ramon (http://www.linkedin.com/in/ramonlarryfrancisco
) for taking 289 pictures at the Empire Hotel Meetup event. I hope you have seen the hard work we put in to grow this community. But you guys gotta stop tagging people at 2 am in the morning LOL.. What a group!
This was my first NYEBN event and I thought it was excellent, wonderful venue, great mix of people, and high energy. I'm looking forward to meeting more of you at the next in March. To your continued success! Thanks Andrew, great job!
