Handshake-A-Thon: Houston Noontime Networking @ Cannon West (FREE)

What would happen if you walked into one room… met 20+ real people who could become clients, partners, or referral sources… and walked out with next steps already locked in… in one lunch break… for free? That’s exactly what the Handshake-A-Thon is. Because most networking fails for one reason: People meet great contacts… then do nothing with them. So we built HTown Handshakes—and our new web app—to fix that. IMPORTANT: REGISTRATION IS TWO STEPS (REQUIRED) To attend and fully participate, you must complete both steps: Step 1 — Register on Eventbrite This holds your spot and helps us manage capacity. Step 2 — Create your FREE account at HTownHandshakes.com This event runs on the web app. No business cards. And here’s the deal… if your profile isn’t complete, people can’t connect with you instantly. PROFILE MINIMUM (REQUIRED TO PARTICIPATE) Before you arrive, your HTown Handshakes profile must include: * ✅ Headshot * ✅ Description (who you help + what you do) * ✅ Booking link (if you have one) No booking link? You can still attend. But headshot + description are required. WHAT YOU GET * 20+ new connections (and more) in one lunch break * Guided rounds so you meet more people in less time * A follow-up system built in (the HTown Handshakes web app) * Next steps locked in on the spot (calls, intros, follow-ups) HERE’S HOW IT WORKS * You show up. * You run quick connection rounds (fast, structured, no awkwardness). * You connect in the web app (so nothing gets lost). * You lock a next step before you leave. Rule: No new connection without a next step. ✅ FIRST EVENT OF 2026 (EVERYONE’S A VIP) If you’re done collecting cards and ready to build real momentum… Register on Eventbrite, set up your free profile at HTownHandshakes.com, and show up ready to connect. Shake hands. Build dreams. Houston networking, business networking event, sales networking, referral partners, The Cannon West, HTown Handshakes, Handshake-A-Thon, HandshakeAThon, web app networking
