If you want to know where to meet professional women, this is the article that gives not only where, but also strategies and tips for success.

Here are some terrific places where you’re sure to meet professional women:

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE MIXERS:

THE REASON:
Every city and town has one – a chamber of commerce, that is. They’re always having networking mixers of one kind or another. No defensive attitudes here – these mixers are going to have a boatload of women attending who are eager to shake hands and do the “meet and greet” which makes it that much easier on you to meet women.

THE STRATEGY:
Contact your local chamber of commerce or just go onto their website and get their schedule of events. Grab your business cards, put on some nice business attire and a smile and get ready to meet a lot of women. The two of you will chat mostly about business, and they’ll be very happy to talk about and answer questions about their business so you can keep the conversation going very easily. Get her business card and call her later telling her how much you enjoyed meeting her and would like to meet again over coffee or lunch.

TIP:
Sometimes the Chamber of Commerce events are open only to members but you can still attend if you tell them you want to attend a mixer or networking meeting to see if you’re interested in joining. They’ll be very friendly because they’re always looking to recruit new members since they get membership dues that help fund their activities.

NETWORKING MEETINGS

THE REASON:
The great thing about networking meetings is the fact that everyone there expects other people to walk up and start talking to them. Duh – that’s what a networking meeting is all about. You’ll find plenty of interesting women to talk to at these meetings.

THE STRATEGY:
The basic strategy is to get their business card and call them later and ask them to meet you for coffee or lunch. But you could also go get a bite after the meeting – a bite to eat, that is, or who knows – maybe something more. And if the networking meeting is a real snooze, you might even duck out together early for a drink at the local watering hole and have a chat or do some dancing while you knock back a few adult beverages and get to know each other better.

TIP:
Networking groups and clubs are always on the lookout or even desperate to get new people in the group. But, they usually charge some kind of membership fee, so you can get around that by going to a meeting as a one-time guest to “check them out” and see if you want to join. Sure, you can join their club, but remember you’re there at the introductory meeting to meet women, right? You don’t have to succumb to the pressure to join their club.

MOST IMPORTANTLY:
No matter where you go to meet professional women, your most important asset is exuding an aura of confidence.
