Did you know?

there are 413 different professions that

touch a home

Home services is a chain, not a set of separate trades. This room is built around that.

Tarp crew → public adjuster → water mitigation → mold remediation → drywall and paint → roofer for the full replacement → insurance agent re-shopping the policy.

Listing agent → home inspector flags the roof → 4-point and wind mitigation inspector → roofer or electrician to fix it before the carrier will bind → insurance agent → lender → title.

Pool tech → roof cleaning and pressure washing → roofer finds soft spots under the stains → insurance agent checks what's covered → gutter and screen enclosure repair → painter for the fascia.

Lender for a HELOC or cash-out refi → designer lays out a ground-floor suite → general contractor → plumber for the walk-in shower → electrician → flooring → insurance agent to update the replacement cost.

What We Kept Watching Happen

Networking Should Last Longer Than the Name Tag.

Most events end with a pocket full of cards and a few good conversations. Six weeks later—when the re-roof, closing, or remodel finally lands—the opportunity often goes to whoever is easiest to remember, not necessarily the best person in the room.

"The hard part of networking is not the handshake — it is being remembered six weeks later, when the job actually lands or how you made them feel."

-Joshua Gless

We Designed What Happens Next.

So we stopped designing an evening and started designing an aftermath. The room still matters — you have to meet people. But the part we built the event around is what happens on the way out: you leave in print, not in somebody's camera roll.

We know what you are thinking

events don't work. I've been to a dozen.

You're right about the dozen. Most of them are built to end at the handshake — the organizer's job finishes when the doors open, and after that you're on your own in a room of strangers holding a drink. Three things are different here, and they're structural, not tonal:

Introductions are made,

not hoped for

At 6:30 the floor gets worked deliberately.

The Event Connection Directory circulates after the night ends — photo, trade, license, contact.

The draw is statewide,

not just Brickell

Not just Brickell. Brightline pulls people from Orlando, West Palm, Boca, Fort Lauderdale and Aventura into one room.

Included in Every Ticket

Four things a name tag can't do.

Most people who run crews would rather be on a roof than at a cocktail hour.

Getting There

I'm not driving into Miami on a Thursday.

Brickell traffic is the number-one reason people skip a Miami event—so we selected American Social with accessibility in mind.

Brightline connects Orlando, West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale, and Aventura to MiamiCentral, just minutes from the venue.

Answer emails on the way, take a short ride from the station, and walk in—no I-95, parking garage, or 4 p.m. second thoughts.

And with an open bar for VIP guests, leaving the car behind is the way.

STILL NOT SURE?

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a pitch-fest or a pay-to-play group?

No. There is no membership, no weekly commitment, no required referral quota and no one is getting up to sell from a stage. It is one evening, one room, and trades that genuinely feed each other work.

Plus, I promise...we hate sales pitch networking events more than you.

What is actually included in VIP versus basic?

Basic is general admission with one complimentary drink ticket and full access to the event areas. VIP adds hosted drinks through the evening and complimentary appetizers. The $5 difference is usually covered by the second drink.

What do I need to send for a directory profile?

A headshot, your name and title, company, trade category, phone, email, website and your Florida license number where applicable. Send it as soon as you book — the directory goes to layout before the event, and late submissions cannot be held.

What should I wear, and can I bring someone?

Business casual or professional cocktail attire. The event is 21+. Bring a colleague — just make sure they have their own ticket, since capacity is capped by the venue.

What if something comes up and I cannot make it?

Refunds are available up to 21 days before the event through Eventbrite. Inside 21 days, tickets can usually be transferred to a colleague or saved for our next event which will be held in Boca Raton — call (954) 667-9779 and we will sort it out.

How many people will be there?

Capacity is set by the venue and intentionally capped so the room stays workable. When the directory tiers sell out they close first, because the book has to go to print ahead of the night.

$12.95? What's the catch?"

There isn't one. Ten dollars gets you in the door with a drink ticket. We make our money on VIP, directory placements and sponsors — cheap admission is deliberate, because a full room is worth more to everyone standing in it than a thin expensive one.

Remember when something is FREE you are the product!

Can I just come for the drinks?

You can, and you wouldn't be the first. But you'd be paying $17.95 to stand in a room full of people who buy exactly what you sell and then not talk to them, which is a strange way to spend a Thursday.

I don't know anyone. Is that going to be awkward?

Nobody knows anyone at the first one — that's the entire reason the event exists. Come at 5:30 when doors open and it's quiet. The early half hour is where the best conversations actually happen, before the room gets loud enough that you're shouting your own company name twice.

Can I bring my friends/wife even if they are not in the industry and Do they need their own ticket?

Yes — the venue caps capacity, so every body in the room needs one. It's worth it anyway: two of you covers twice the floor and you can split up and compare notes after. Plus, since it is geared around home services. You might be surprised how many professionals you actually need.

Why would I pay $69 and more for a directory listing?

The handshake was never the hard part. Being remembered six weeks later, when the job actually lands, is the hard part. The directory is your photo, trade, license and contact in something people keep. The alternative is being a face someone half-remembers and can't place.

Sponsor the event or Your local Magazine

Put your name on the room.

If you are already taking the time to be in the room, it makes sense to be positioned properly in it. Sponsorship starts at $175 and scales to logo placement, event recognition, featured promotion, spotlight profiles and facilitated introductions.

Sponsor inventory is limited and assigned in order of commitment.
