Brewpal: informal Drupal meet-up
Lucky Labrador Beer Hall

What is this event? It's an informal meetup each month to work on our own individual Drupal projects in the company of other Drupalers. The idea is that you can work on your own project, ask a question to your neighbor if you're stuck, chat with others about your brilliant Drupal start-up idea, and then take a beer break whenever you want.

If you are bringing your laptop, don't forget to charge it ahead of time (since Lucky Lab's power outlets are minimal).

Here are the details:

Time: 5:00 - 9:00 p.m.

Lucky Lab Beer Hall 1945 NW Quimby St. Portland, OR 97209 (Yes, they have wifi.)

So get ready to pack up your laptop and see you soon!

Be Their Go-To: Building Lasting Relationships with Clients and Collaborators
Moxie Studio

You'll leave with a comprehensive list of red (and orange) flags to avoid; advice on how to set boundaries in both your personal and professional life; practical guidelines for pricing, standard agreements, contracts; and highly effective negotiation tips and tactics.
