Awesome! Somehow I didn't see this thread when I looked through. I am always down for a meetup!
Awesome, let's give it a day or say to see if anyone else is interested, if not we can still plan something

Now that I know there's at least one Washingtonian other than myself here... (@Samrock)

Who all is in the state and interested in a meetup? Doesn't have to be Seattle - we can find a central location. I'm about 1.5 hours south of Seattle.

Okay. Maybe I'll try to organize something when I get settled down in January or so. I've been keeping to myself too much over the past few years, and I'm starting to realize the importance of surrounding yourself with likeminded people.

PS: I grew up in Renton

Great! Lets wait for this thread to slide off the front page once more

If you don't mind me asking how old are you guys?

@InnovateDesign
I'm 20, turning 21 in September. I'm definitely interested in meeting up with you all and making some new friends :)

Hey, I just joined but have been doing MANY types of business for about 10 years. If any of you are still in Seattle or the area, and are into more than just one field (I like to chat with people who are into more than just a single niche like, ONLY KDP, or JUST Airbnbs), I'd love to meet up whenever you have time and throw around ideas, plus I'd be happy to help or give info in any way I can. Basically just looking to meet other entrepreneurs in the area!

I have experience with these fields:

· Airbnbs/VRBO - Selecting, Running, Automating, Investing. I currently have 2 (had 2 more)

· iOS Apps - Designing, Hiring Programmers, Niche selection, marketing, selling via empire flippers, and licensing code. - I currently have 3 apps (sold one and had 3 more in the past)

· Affiliate Marketing - Selecting, ROI testing, Copy writing, etc. - Currently running 9 campaigns, have run as many as 30 at once.

· KDP Publishing - Niche selection, newsletter building, VA hiring, design, ROI testing, Amazon SEO. - Currently have 51 books published. All were written or designed by VAs / Ghostwriters.

· Bitcoin/Altcoin/ICO investing & day trading - Expire with everything from cold wallets, ICO investments, margin lending investing, etc. - Have been investing in this market since June 2016 with excellent results. I recommend it!

· Print On Demand - Niche selection, Design sourcing, ROI testing, publishing. - Currently run multiple designs on multiple platforms.

· Drop Shipping - Niche selection, Website Design, conversion optimization, adwords campaigns, etc. - Have run 3 drop shipping stores, currently all are sold or shut down to focus on more passive income.

· FBA - Finding/negotiating with suppliers, Niche Selection, Product testing, etc. - Imported various items in the past, however this field is now very competitive, so I've moved on to other things.

· "PASSIVE" Commercial real estate Investing - Parking Lots, Laundromats, Self-storage, Car washes, etc. - Looking into this as the next are of investment. Would love to chat with others who are interested.

I don't expect you to have experience with all these btw, just putting it out there, I'd be happy to help and chat about any of these or some other ideas. I have no courses to sell, although I could probably recommend some resources if you want. Hope one of you is still around! I'm on Cap Hill btw.

Best Regards,

Christopher Chapin

Alright. Let's give some others a chance to answer, but I'm pretty sure it's just the two of us around here. A shame, really, Seattle is great for entrepreneur types.

How old are you? (17 I think?). I'm only 22, not a huge difference.

Typically I like to do active things for meetups. Hiking, etc. Sitting at some restaurant blabbing.. no no no.

Fun fact: Every time I've met up with a fastlaner (in Canada, USA, and Europe) we've either climbed a mountain or gone up a tall tower with an observation point. Pretty funny now that I think of it.

Hey did this meetup ever get started?

I'm currently "homeless," traveling through Asia this year, but I'm probably going to be settling down in Seattle (the city itself) in 2016.

It would be fun to make some like-minded new friends.

No, we haven't met up yet.

I'm still planning on setting something up once I can "officially" move back to Seattle in January (I've been trapped in Oregon dealing with some family drama for the past month...).

I'm thinking maybe something on January 16 or 17, 2016.

Sounds like we've got one in Renton, one in Olympia, one in Seattle (me), and (maybe) one Portlander. So maybe we could meet up for coffee in Tukwila (seems somewhat central) and get to know each other, what we're up to, and how we can help each other.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

If not, I'll put together some more details once I get a little more settled.
