Social Circle Summer Soiree

Where real conversations lead to meaningful connections.

Welcome to the most unique and selective social event built for entrepreneurs. This will be unlike anything you have experienced before.

The Circle of Influence proudly presents our inaugural event - where relationships lead to respect and referrals. These are the pillars of our group! We will strive to put people, not sales, first in the Phoenix business community.

Do you feel there is a lack of devotion and loyalty in our culture? We strongly believe that personal human connection is what will bring deeper bonds and better collaboration. Networking should not only be a "mastermind" or "brainstorm", but rather a strong safety "net" that catches you. Let's put the NET back in networking!

💬 Genuine Connection Over Small Talk

Thrive on real conversations. A meaningful club that prioritizes deeper connections over surface-level networking. Think curated member circles, storytelling events, or "real talk" roundtables-spaces where people show up as they are.

🤝 Community That Supports and Refers

Value in reciprocal relationships-especially those that support your business and mission. A meaningful club creates a referral-friendly atmosphere, perhaps through business showcases, skill shares, or spotlight sessions that give everyone a chance to contribute and be seen.

🧭 Shared Purpose or Mission

Whether championing local professionals, or empowering the community, you gravitate toward movements, not just meetings.

🎯 Curated, Value-Packed Experiences

Time is valuable. A good social experience feels intentional-not just drinks and chit-chat. Think exclusive content, guest speakers, mastermind sessions, or breakout topics tied to your passions.

💡 Cross-Industry Collaboration

You'll appreciate learning from adjacent worlds (sideline industries, social platforms, outside-the-box approaches). A club that blends local entrepreneurs could spark fresh ideas and referrals.

📍 Local Roots with Online Reach

Build community both online and in Phoenix. A hybrid club (local meetups with online continuity) will let you show up consistently without burnout-and allow you to keep nurturing connections between in-person events.

The group is industry exclusive, and we are only seeking a limited number of professions at this time. The event is designed to identify who our team will consider filling a highly coveted seat in our biweekly Circle of Influence meetings to receive clients from the group.

The event is a combination of unstructured mingling time and organized industry-specific introductions. This will be a fun event going into the weekend and you'll have a memorable time. Local alt-rock superstar Aaron Loveless goes on at 8:30.

This will be a relaxed, casual and fun atmosphere with less business card "handing"

Music, laughter, stories, vulnerability, commiserating

Info: The event is a combination of unstructured mingling time and organized industry-specific introductions. A scavenger hunt will ensue, and you'll have to change to win one of many available door prizes.
