What advice would you give to someone hoping to start a monthly meetup of their own? Is there anything that you wished you had known before organizing TechLeadership?
Here is some advice around starting a monthly meetup from the top of my head:
Find one or two other people to help as co-organisers. You can share ideas and spread the load of any work that needs to be done.
Start a meetup on a topic you are very passionate about, that way you will always be motivated to keep going and learning.
Meetups are less about the number of attendees but more about the learning and good conversations that happen between people who attended. A small group with a great discussion topic is better than a bigger group just chatting randomly.
Make use of a platform such as Meetup.com, they provide a good foundation for setting up and organising events.
Be consistent, don't skip any monthly events.
Promote your meetup so people are aware of it. Make use of your social sites - LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram.
I hope that helps :-)
