What if I told you there is a way to promote your business and learn about new LOHAS products and services at the same time?
Yes, that is what you can do at any LOHAS related business events. Ask your Chamber of Commerce or check local calendars. If you don’t belong to a chamber then check out the national Green Chamber of Commerce.
At the annual LOHAS Forum you can network with representatives of like-minded LOHAS companies. Understand the latest marketing trends. This Forum is the best place to discover all your opportunities in the Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability marketplace!
The Green Festivals are events organized by environmental and social justice nonprofits Green America and Global Exchange. These events happen throughout the year at various locations in the USA.
The November 2010 Green Festival held in San Francisco was a huge success. Attendees learned about healthier environmental, economical and social solutions. They also listened to great speakers, watched film screenings, and had many many exhibit booths to stop at.
While at such events you’ll need to make an effort to meet and greet people, rather than just looking around the entire time. Ask lots of questions and introduce yourself to everyone you talk to. Discuss your business, your needs and your goals. Try to compare products and services with competitors if you can.
Green events are a great opportunity to network. Come prepared with lots of business cards, a can-do attitude, and don’t be afraid to approach strangers. After the event be sure to follow up with phone calls and emails!
