Join me as I reconnect with Scott Sanders, founder of the IT Business Owners Group, to explore the thriving community he's built for IT professionals. Since our last conversation in 2019, Scott shares the remarkable organic growth of their Facebook group, which has blossomed into an essential hub for knowledge-sharing and peer support among IT business owners.
Scott shares the history of the group, which started on LinkedIn and later moved to Facebook, where it has grown organically for the past eight years. The group provides a platform for IT business owners to network, share knowledge, and support each other in navigating the challenges of business ownership.
Scott also talks about the upcoming 2024 IT Bog Member Cruise, which is scheduled for November 8-11 out of Port Canaveral. He emphasizes the importance of creating a unique experience for attendees, focusing on activities and enjoyment rather than traditional conference room sessions. The conversation touches on the challenges of organizing events during the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact of the pandemic on business operations.
The episode provides insights into the dynamics of community building in the IT industry and the value of in-person networking events for IT business owners. Scott and Marvin's conversation offers a glimpse into the supportive and collaborative nature of the IT Business Owners Group and its role in fostering a sense of community among its members.
