Have you heard of Soloist Collective yet? It is a community that aims to empower skilled independent professionals to "master their craft, grow their business and lead life on their own terms." Whether you are a caterer, an artist, a therapist, a career coach or an artisan, Soloist Collective empowers you by connecting you to others for advice, referrals, bartering, friendships, and all sort of other key services that support independent work.
This past summer, a Park Slope Chapter of Soloist Collective was formed, which includes members from Gowanus and Carroll Gardens. It now includes more than 100 members, the largest in New York City.
The chapter would like to extend an invitation to other soloists to join them at their final meeting of 2017, next Wednesday, December 13 at 9am, at Bond Collective at Gowanus, 68 3rd Street, so other freelancers can learn more "about the somewhat hidden but growing local business community, and how why we've decided to go it independently, but not alone."
From Soloist Collective:
"Our chapter meetings typically last about an hour. Soloists take time to introduce themselves to the group and to make asks from the community, and then one member speaks about an issue they're an expert on that has value to the community. We see everyone from fitness professionals, lawyers, health coaches, real estate agents, to music teachers and interior decorators, and others exchanging cards and making plans to deepen their connections and support one another’s businesses."
Bagels and coffee provided. Care to join me to check it out?
