At Let's Make It Happen! Networking Groups (Trussville and Birmingham), we pride ourselves on curating a select group of professionals from our community. Our founding members are chosen with care, reflecting our commitment to quality. However, it's paramount that you exercise personal diligence when considering any business dealings or agreements. Remember, thoroughly vetting and reviewing potential collaborations is always a wise move.

Our meetings, accessible to the public via Eventbrite, aim to provide a platform for fruitful connections. While we strive to recognize and note our regular attendees, we do not individually vet each participant. This group is intended to offer a forum for networking; ensuring that any connection is a good fit is up to you. Engaging with connections, for business or personal reasons, is a responsibility that rests solely with the individual.

Consequently, our Founding Members and their associated businesses do not warrant or bear any liability for the products or services provided by participants. It's worth noting that a professional's attendance at our meetings, though an indication of their community engagement, does not imply our endorsement or verification. As always, trust but verify.
