One thing is for sure; you won’t be at a loss of words to describe <em><a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=24756X892616&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.givethegifttoday.com%2Fthe-gift-live%2F&sref=rss" target="_blank">The Gift Live!</a></em> after experiencing it. Testimonials by those who have attended the popular event are endless. More and more people are finding out how this new way of networking and communicating can accelerate their goals, both personally and professionally.<span id="more-228"></span></p>
<p><em>The Gift</em> <em>Live!</em> is a unique event that allows people of all walks of life to connect with others based on a philosophy that teaches us to give to others first and ask nothing in return. Investing in others is investing in yourself.</p>
<p>Traditional networking tells us to not waste time. Find out what the other person’s does for a living, see if you can mutually benefit from each other, and don’t worry if there are no commonalities. Move on. After all, that’s the name of the game.</p>
<p>At <em>The Gift</em> <em>Live!</em> individuals are encouraged to dig deeper than the cursory “what do you do?” conversation. It’s about learning more about the other person, and put all agendas aside. “The Law of Contribution states that the level of your happiness and success in life is directly proportional to the number of people you serve selflessly,” says Matthew Ferry, one of the founders. “Contributing to others can take shape an idea, an insight, an introduction.”</p>
<p>Over the past two years live events have been held in Seattle and Los Angeles. The event was originally called the Contribution Networking Party, which currently has an online following of over 1,200 registered members. Its popularity has attracted local business owners, and professionals from a wide range of industries along with corporate sponsors such as Bank of America and Country Insurance.</p>
<p><strong><em>O’Asian Kitchen </em></strong>5:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m.</p>
<p><strong><em>800 5th Avenue, Suite Plaza 1 </em></strong><strong><em>Registration starts at 5:00 p.m.</em></strong><strong><em> </em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>Seattle, WA 98104 </em></strong><strong><em>Hors d’ouevres and drinks will be served.</em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>Register at <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=24756X892616&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.givethegifttoday.com%2Fthe-gift-live%2F&sref=rss" target="_blank">GiveTheGiftToday.com</a></em></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">About the Founders</span></strong></p>
<p><strong></strong></p>
<p><em>Unified by their passion for The Law of Contribution, The Gift is founded by four visionary entrepreneurs. Marc Sachnoff is an Emmy nominated entertainment industry veteran; Thach Nguyen is a realtor, developer and philanthropist; Kristen Marie Schuerlein is a vision translator of brands and businesses, and Matthew Ferry is a global thought leader in personal transformation.</em></p>
<p><em>Come meet them at The Gift Live! where they will share their stories of how The Gift has helped them achieve more money, more happiness and overall success. </em></p>
