Do you often wonder why no one returns your calls or follows up with you after a "Networking Event"?

The Art of Active Networking is a worldwide networking group 100% focused on helping you to do better by asking the question, "How can I help you do better right now?” We recognize that every single person on this planet has two things that are universally common to each other:

1. We are all of the same race...the Human Race!

2. That as humans we all struggle with something! At this event you will make some amazing connections and you will learn why Networking is not about what you get, but what you give and what I call my . You really only need to meet one person to make your entire night worthwhile if you know what you are doing. You will have an opportunity to speak to everyone in the room, and you will absolutely meet people you might otherwise never have an opportunity to meet and you will see that's it's not what you are selling or how you sell it that matters. Instead, learn the importance of building 'know, like and trust' relationships! With that in mind we ask that you consider helping yourself and each other with those struggles by attending our events and sharing yourself and your knowledge, and practicing what we call where we ask each of you to consider helping others for 4 hours a week in the following 4 ways.

1. GIVE of your ideas and talent freely! Share your vast life experience to help another.

2. Help a neighbor with a chose, carry someones groceries, volunteers at a soup kitchen or for a non-profit!

3. GIVE of your money! I'm not asking for your fortune, even 25 cents in a hat or 5 dollars to a crowdfunding campaign or in the basket at church can go a long way to someone struggling.

4. GIVE of your network through referrals! I now folks, you know folks, and the way we really do business is by building “Know, like and trust” based relationships! If I refer you and someone knows, likes and trusts the person, they will call you back or offer help when referred. So use these 4 ways of giving and put in 4 hours a week of effort and watch your life get better. Watch the people who come into your life get better. Watch all the good you do with and hashtag your good deeds while you share them to inspire others! Come see why over 15,000 people have attended in 5 countries and 17 cities worldwide! Tickets are 20$ on-line on our site until 6:15pm the day of the event and 30$ cash at the door until 7:15pm. Each event typically ends about 9:45pm! You must purchase a ticket online in advance to get the 20$ pricing. You are then invited to join all of our groups and pages and use our FREE walls to post up what you might be looking for, all of those links are on our homepage near the ticket link. Finally, this is 100 percent privately funded by Mark E. Sackett our founder. In order to expand it and keep it going he’s launched a Crowdrise Campaign to help. Take a look, and if you feel like you can give a bit, we’d really appreciate your consideration and kindness: https://www.crowdrise.com/mygive4-and-the-art-of-active-networking

Charlie Kirk made his profession riding on Donald J. Trumps coattails.

Both speak hate, racism, and work to divide America. And it works!!! We have never been more hateful, hated or divided in this country. But yesterday hate came knocking back on Mr. Kirk's door. It's all very sad, it's all fueling more hate and the rhetoric is polarizing people.

The liberals are being blamed, yet they have not even caught the shooter. We have mass shootings almost weekly now in this country. The gun control conversation is stalled and even Charlie said he did not support gun control. Yesterday he experienced the result of uncontrolled guns.

I do not support the idea of assassination and the killing of others because we disagree with the hate they spread. But the saddest part of all this is his rhetoric has now left his wife and his children without the man they loved.

For those of you who have seen fit to send me nasty messages because I employ and love my Gay and Trans Employees, and because I employ and love my African American employees, and because I employ and love my Female Employees all I can say is Karma is a bitch and eventually hate always comes knocking!

If you are not spreading hate and you can accept all people for who they are and what they beleive good on you. I prefer to live my life trying to accept, support and engage in a more giving and creative life.

I have been called CRAZY more times than I can count! This happens to Artists, Makers and Entrepreneurs almost daily, often from an early age. 👉 My advice: You do you! ♥️ See you September 8th at for Tickets at TheArtofActiveNetworkimg.com and join our monthly Festivals at TheBoxSF.com Now… Let’s have a CRAZY, CREATIVE FALL! ~Mark 415-602-9500🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

I HAD A VERY INTERESTING BUT ALL TOO COMMON CONVERSATION THIS LAST WEEKEND!

This past weekend I got a call from a very small, emerging Artist who was worried that people won't like her work. I get it, and told her that Art is always going to find a Viewer and a Buyer. Just like your talent and expertise or personality may not always resonate with a potential employer.

Sometimes we may not resonate with everyone, but the reason I do these monthly Festivals and our Networking events is to support people just like this. To give them a safe and inviting space to showcase their talent, to have a conversation about FEAR or DOUBT. If you are an Artist come and vend with us, if you are an Art lover, come and support our talented Creators each month!

Now if you want to meet some amazing people and Network, come to our Monday night Networking events! Let us help you meet some amazing folks, find your next job or career, and learn why the way you have been Networking for years now may no longer work.

Our next events will be September 6, 7 and 8th here at The Box SF in San Francisco!

First up, our FREE Artist and Makers Fair on September 6th from 11am to 5pm and September 7th from 11am to 4pm!

Last month we had 35 Vendors and over 600 Shoppers and we expect September to be even busier!

After the weekend fair, Monday night at 6pm will be the September edition of The Art of Active Networking and since my Birthday is Tuesday the 9th, perhaps we'll do a little sumthin sumthin!

I so love doing these events, helping people to find their passions, to shift careers, to find new jobs or support their careers. We have a global community so join us and see how you too can help others to do better each and every day!

We're always here to help and support you as we can.
