Have been a Meetup Organizer since 2004.? Have been running 10 Meetup groups every month with different strategies every month, every quarter and even every year!? 8 years went by and I got a little tired, so I kind of took a break last year and got myself busy with something more fun for me for a while.?
With 2013 being here, the 9th year of my Meetup activities, I thought of many more ideas of how to run my groups again.? Well, almost everything I do has been copied by others.? Some did a great job.? And some didn't do a good job and ruin the fun for the community.
So, I asked myself today, as the January 1st of 2013 is here, what will I do to make it different than all the other years? ?Yes, I spent a lot of time thinking about it nearly the last quarter of last year (a bad habit from being in the business world for so long.? You think budget, strategies, and game plans, every quarter of the year.? Especially the last quarter, you make things happen for next year!)
While contemplating what fun things I can do this year for all my 10 Meetup groups, I thought sell them?? Hmm.... dissolve them?? Hmm..... Well, how about make it better that ever!!? Yes!!!? That was my answer to myself! ?Make it more fun!? More exciting!? More activities!!? While I was making up my mind, there, I received this in my email ....
From Meetup HQ, Tittle: New Year Unresolutions
I clicked on it and it has...
Resolutions are meant to be broken
Ditch the billions of people who give up on their resolutions every year, and join the 12 million people on Meetup instead.
Just do what you love with people who love to do the same things.
Meetup to get fit, enjoy a hobby, advance your career, have fun... Who could give up on that?
Check it out!? They have a lot of fun photos and reminders of some of those meetups that we've never seen before!? And they are fun!?
?They have groups like...
Cancel Your Gym Membership - 4,874 Outdoor Meetups
Spent Less 1-on-1 Time With Your Kids - 7,620 Parenting Meetups
Quit Your Job - 4,081 Startup Meetups
Friend More People - 10,107 Socializing Meetups

?By looking at the above, I might as well change some of my meetups or add some extra meetups just to include some of these fun ideas from above!
What do you think?? Feel free to write to me about ideas for this year's meetup activities that we should have in our 10 groups:
