Seattle Executives Association
Share
Founded in 1917, we are Seattle's oldest Executive Networking group. www.seattleexecs.org So by getting together weekly to share their knowledge, each prospered!
Seattle Executives Association was established in 1917 by small group of businessmen who believed that they could increase their sales by sharing information about ships coming to port to buy goods. In addition each could refer their clients to others in the group and therefore reduce the time and resources needed for each to locate new business. This concept remains a strong business development approach today, nearly 100 years later. Seattle Execs members come together at weekly luncheon meetings to get to know the products and services each member provides and share information about "who is looking to buy."

John also shares how being a 29-year member of Seattle Execs has directly shaped the growth of his business, from new customers to the vendor relationships he now leans on to take care of his own clients.
