&lt;p&gt;Case in point &amp;ndash; I have been actively using &lt;a target="_blank" title="Danny Do Couto&amp;#39;s LinkedIn" href="http://www.linkedin.com/in/dannydocouto"&gt;my LinkedIn account&lt;/a&gt; to touch base with other consultants, QuickBooks ProAdvisors, QuickBooks Intuit Solution Providers (ISP&amp;rsquo;s) and other SaaS users.&amp;nbsp; It really is amazing how many people you can meet and how quickly your connections can add up.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In mid-January, through a common group on LinkedIn, I came across a posting by &lt;a target="_blank" title="Who is Joe Woodard?" href="http://www.cfsatlanta.com/about.htm"&gt;Joe Woodard&lt;/a&gt; regarding a conference for accounting professionals, QuickBooks ProAdvisors and Intuit Solution Providers (ISP&amp;rsquo;s).&amp;nbsp; I connected with Joe and we found out that we both had attended the &lt;a target="_blank" title="Read about our trip to the QBES Conference" href="http://methodintegration.com/cs/blogs/methodblog/archive/2008/09/16/method-launches-in-dallas-texas.aspx"&gt;QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions Conference&lt;/a&gt; in September but managed to somehow miss each other.&amp;nbsp; We started to discuss Method and how it might help to solve some of his clients&amp;rsquo; business needs.&amp;nbsp; Joe and I were so excited about working together that he invited me to attend his &amp;ldquo;&lt;a target="_blank" title="Learn about the &amp;quot;Scaling New Heights&amp;quot; Conference" href="http://www.scalingnewheights.com/"&gt;Scaling New Heights&lt;/a&gt;&amp;rdquo; conference being held in Atlanta, GA in May, 2009.&amp;nbsp; Had it not been for LinkedIn, Joe and I may have never met.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Joe has invited me to lead a webinar on Method as part of his webinar series to promote the &lt;b&gt;Scaling New Heights&lt;/b&gt; Conference.&amp;nbsp; The best part is, the webinars are free! &lt;img src="http://methodintegration.com/cs/emoticons/emotion-21.gif" alt="Yes" /&gt;&amp;nbsp; Free is always nice, &lt;i&gt;especially&lt;/i&gt; in times like these. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I&amp;rsquo;m very excited about visiting &lt;a target="_blank" title="Where is Atlanta, GA?" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlanta"&gt;Atlanta&lt;/a&gt; in May for this conference.&amp;nbsp; I may be learning a thing or two from Joe after attending some of his classes.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Happy networking =)&lt;/p&gt;
