How's this for niche?

So I've been putting time, energy and thought into special events of late. Some professional time spent and creating launch events for my employer as well as personal time planning fundraisers for worthy causes in my local market.

I have found over many years in my career I have affinity for creating visions and taking action when a good idea is shared with me. I'm big on helping the greater good and focus attention on taking appropriate actions that support my desire to aid people in need and children especially. This is one of the reasons I donate my time to teach children Kung Fu San Soo. I love to teach and I want kids to be safe. Enough said.

I most recently created a social network and LinkedIn Group called SEVEJ - Special Events Junkies. It's a group created to help people develop large to small events together. The goal is to connect professionals who create, plan and develop special events for good causes or simply to support their local marketing/PR efforts. In the end all we do is alter opinions or change behavior in support of a goal why not share great ideas with like minded professionals? Thus SEVEJ was born.

I think SEVEJ is a perfect example of a well defined social network niche. Special events planning takes time, talent, passion and drive to pull off successfully. I am hopeful this niche SN will draw attention from worldwide professionals much like myself who have a passion for sales and marketing and have found they love to take action to create events around good ideas in support of larger goals.

This is an open invite to anyone who reads this post and wants to learn how or why marketing PR professionals use special events to support their causes. Join us!
