As a meetup.com meetup organizer, I get promotional emails from the service, and I received a rather interesting one yesterday. Apparently Starbucks has realized that a service that had over 54,000 meetings in the month of May alone needs places to hold those meetings. So they’ve rolled out a pilot program in VA, DC & MD, whereby you can find a local Starbucks to host your meeting. It’s obvious what Starbucks gets out of it, but what does the meeting get out of it?
Well, for a start they’re going to give you reserved seating for your party, that’s a huge one, especially if you’re meeting in a busy location. They also state that they’re going to give your meeting extra promotion, and give you support. While that may just mean that they write your meeting up on a whiteboard behind the counter, it’s still something.
If you run a meetup in the VA, DC, MD area, all you have to do is email starbucks at meetup.com and you may have one of the meeting setup headaches taken care of for you.
