The Build Guild’s First Event
Yesterday, July 8th, the Build Guild had its inaugural event at the Salem Beer Works in downtown Salem, Massachusetts. The turn-out was amazing—we collected 36 business cards for the raffle—and everybody seemed to have a great time. Many of the conversations I had revolved around the surprise most people felt discovering there were so many local people in the web industry. I made my best effort to greet each person who came, learn where they were from, and how they heard of the Build Guild. I was honored to chat with so many great local women and men who are passionate about the things I’m passionate about. I believe I witnessed at least three separate occasions where one person connected with another person they had previously not known and promised to chat further about a side-project or a new job.
