Hey all!

As the title says, I’m looking for fellow Community peeps in the SF area. I help run the [Unbounce Community](http://community.unbounce.com) and I’ll be in the bay area next week for some work related stuff.

I would **love** to connect with other Community managers/coordinators in the area to chat about a few things, such as:

- What kind of challenges you face
- Engaging new users // prompting lurkers
- community advocates/experts (aka your top 5% engaged)
- communicating value from the Community to your organization (ie. ROI)
- the future of Community

I’d be happy to meet up over coffee, lunch or even a beer if you’re so inclined (first drink is on me!). 🍻

Let me know and we’ll make it happen!

Cheers,

- @Justin_Veenema

Awesome! @Brad_Dixon I’ll reach out to you directly.

@Brad_Dixon thanks for the Feverbee link! I’m actually meeting up with some folks from Feverbee on Wednesday. 🙂

Anyone else in the San Francisco area want to join in on this?
