Friend Friday
Today, the connection that I’m highlighting…
Name:
Pat Howlett
Business:
inSideAreaCodes.com
Location:
Cary, NC
Social Media Sites:
Facebook, Twitter, BlogTalkRadio, inSide919.com, LinkedIn
Now, this is one interesting person. I met Pat shortly after he had moved to North Carolina from Colorado. Pat is an internet geek with a great personality! To understand what I mean, take a look at these 2 lines from his profile on inSide919:
“I love to read, cook, play golf, fantasy football and make my own line of Hot Clili Powders (using NC grown Cayenne, Jalapeno, Scotch Bonnet and Habanero chillies). Hanging with my sweetie and kids doing pretty much anything make for the perfect day.”
See? Great guy. Shortly after meeting Pat, he launched inSideAreaCodes.com and the first local social network based on an area code: inSide919.com. I joined because I believed in his vision for building local businesses (particularly, MicroBusinesses) through social networking. I stay involved because of the friendships and visibility.
Pat is also the sponsor of my weekly show on BlogTalkRadio – Author BUZZ.
Check out my friend, Pat. Chances are, if you spend some time with him…you’re bound to learn something that will help to grow your business!
