I coordinated the last one and nobody showed up except the people I always drink with. Soo, perhaps somebody cooler should take the reigns of the next one. Any volunteers?

Hey man, don't feel bad. There's a certain members/attendees ratio that's not as good as you'd think. A city with a bigger presence like SF had very few people show up to their mixer. People always look at what we were doing with Agency Thursdays and our first party in NYC and think that we have this big successful event hegemony going on, but we just don't. There's a disproportionate number of New Yorkers on here--maybe 900 out of 4000 are from here and we struggled to get 20 people a week to Fuelray. Sometimes it was just me and my 5 friends. Now we're going to focus events more on recruiting new members--so like, if you want to network in the industry you might pay $10 to go to a networking event but Adholes pay 5 and insiders pay $1 or something. Also, you have to understand that even if there were 300 people from Dallas on here, they might not necessarily know to look at events etc. Next time, I can provide you with a static URL to your event and you can use it to send to people so they can come RSVP.
