Seattle OUTLeads 11-21-2024
Welcome!
Purpose
Seattle OUTLeads is a networking group of LGBTQIA+ and Allied business owners and company representatives who are looking to develop long-term, meaningful relationships with other professionals, new customers, clients, and community partners.
The idea is simple: generate business for your fellow Seattle OUTLeads members by directing qualified leads and referrals directly to them, and in return, they bring leads and referrals directly back to you.
Only one industry is represented in the group at a time, which keeps the business activity circulating within the group.
