SOCIAL MEDIA AND THE
BUSINESS WORLD
Gelie Akhenbilt
Guest Speaker
What are the social
media tools I should be
using? How can these
tools help me?
What should I be talking
about?
Gelie is the
Founder of NetworkingPhoenix.com, an
online resource that has become
Phoenix’s one-stop-shop for
professionals, entrepreneurs and
small business owners looking to
network and connect locally.
NetworkingPhoenix.com has become one
of the most popular local non
publication/government websites and
has attracted over 10,000 members.
On average, the online calendar
promotes 547 local business mixers a
month.
The quarterly NetworkingPhoenix.com
Signature Event attracts over 1,000
attendees and is the largest
networking event in Phoenix. In
addition to her website business,
Gelie trains others on how to
network strategically, create a
personal following, and effectively
and deliberately employ the latest
social media tools. She also speaks
in engagements on the importance of
having a strategy when engaging in
face-to-face networking and the
power of building and maintaining
strategic relationships.
Gelie is the
recipient of NAWBO's Emerging
Visionary 2010 Award. AZ magazine
selected Gelie to be included on its
