Building Your Own Themyscira: Connecting With Other Geeky Bosses’
On Friday, July 24th Jordan Dené Ellis (co-editor of The Sartorial Geek) hosted a round table discussion about best practices for networking and the importance of finding your community with Robyn Warren (owner, Geek Girl Strong), Matt Cox (playwright, Puffs and Kapow-i GoGo), Jazzlyn Stone (freelance comics marketer), and Rose Del Vecchio (co-owner, FanMail).
The panel starts off with the panelist sharing their stories of how they fell into their current careers in geek businesses. They go on to discuss how they built their communities and why those communities are so important. They also discuss how being stuck in a global pandemic has affected their business and what they did to adapt to a new way of life. For Geeky Bosses or any person who is trying to build a brand and find their audiences, it is intimidating to try to make a path for oneself in already established circles. This panel provides insight on how to make genuine connections.
